Conservatories are a great way to extend your home and integrate your garden into your living space. In the UK we may not have the best weather but we do have wonderful seasons - all 4 of them unique and completely different. Conservatories are a great way to enjoy the season with all the comforts of your home. They do not have to be cold places in winter and hot in summer. Using the correct design procedure and climate control we can ensure that you enjoy your conservatory each and every day of the year – as comfortable in the summer as winter. We supply and install all types of conservatories – from the traditional to the modern, making sure that it is an extension to your property that fits in with the overall feel and aesthetics of your home. By installing climate control and heating systems we can ensure it is comfortable for whatever the UK weather throws at us, and is cheap to run by conserving energy.

Renewable energy incorporation
Loft extensions
Swimming pools
A perfect way to extend your home making the best use of the space that is already there. Loft extensions can be as easy as you want them to be. Whether just converting the existing space or re-building the roof to allow for more space, Cernunnos can help and suggest the most viable solution for your needs.
For those that wish to indulge we can help you create the perfect addition to your home. Building the structure and/or the swimming pool. We can also help integrate a renewable source of heating the pool, ensuring running costs are kept to a minimum. Indoor or outdoor pools – or even a mixture of both!
No matter what size your build project is, the design stage is critical. At this point you can incorporate technologies and systems you may have never thought of – ones that can significantly reduce running costs and provide to be a better investment than anything else you have come across. By looking at these options early and incorporating them in at the design stage you can significantly lower the installation costs and thereby reduce the amount of time it takes for your investment to pay off. Additionally, these systems can significantly increase the value of your property.
Basements
Garden structures
When you can’t build up – look down! Increasingly popular in urban areas, let Cernunnos help you explore innovative ways to extend your home. Basements are fast becoming the favoured extensions in towns and cities, and the costs are not as high as one might imagine!
For those wishing to build a second building for a multi-purpose use. Maybe that dreamed of “games room” or your own “bar”! These structures can be a lot more cost effective than you think. Why not ask to see some examples from Cernunnos?
Many companies do not have the level of knowledge or experience of dealing with these types of technologies. We have used then on our own projects and know what works in different situations. We will only recommend systems that we feel are suitable for you and we always consider the economics of these technologies alongside the environmental aspects.
