Windbreaks vs conservatories: what’s the difference?
Conservatories or sunrooms are glass-enclosed spaces out the front of your home. They’re perfect for relaxing under shelter or growing hothouse plants.
Windbreaks or ‘wind fences’ are much the same idea and are designed to protect your home against the strong Canterbury gusts. The difference is in planning permission.
Some conservatories require council building consent, whereas others can be built as windbreaks, and so don’t need a permit. Our design consultants are happy to come to your home and discuss the best option based on your requirements.
Stunning-looking conservatories.
We take care of everything.
We start by proposing a conservatory to meet all your needs and suit your home. Whether you have a character home, a modern look or another layout, we’ll find a design that works.
We then draw up a preliminary plan and confirm with you the details. Once you’re happy with everything, we get all your property information from your council, and one of our qualified draftsmen will draw up the final plans for council consent.
Conservatory installation & replacement.
Our installers include qualified builders and specialists. Rest assured, knowing that your home is in the best hands possible. Get in touch with our Christchurch team today.
Weatherproof aluminum & glass.
Using the latest in aluminium frame designs, we build conservatories and windbreaks designed to stand the test of time.
Keep your extension looking new for years to come. Relax in your Christchurch aluminium porch, with the whole design-to-build process taken care of for you.
We’ll sort your paperwork.
Unsure what permits you need? We’ll submit your plans to the council. A standard consent process can take from 4-6 weeks on average. During that time, we’ll call the council weekly to follow up on what stage your consent is at so we can then pass this information on to you. When your permit is due for collection, we assign a builder and call you with a start date for construction.
On completion, the council will come to do a final inspection called a code of compliance. Around this time, you will have an inspection done by one of our management staff to make sure you are 100% satisfied with everything.

Earthquake management.
Due to the earthquakes, it is a council requirement to obtain a soil test on all consented conservatories. This is organised for you and submitted to the council.
We can cover the paperwork on your behalf. Just get in touch and let us know your plans.
Quick turnarounds.
Once you name your start day, our conservatories are built and finished within three weeks (depending on material availability). During the construction, you are once again kept up to date with the progress of where your conservatory is at.
