Install a conservatory with a timeless look

Akena answers your questions.

En fonction de la taille de votre projet, et de la configuration de votre terrain, vous devrez entreprendre certaines démarches spécifiques avant de construire votre véranda.

Si sa surface est inférieure à 20 m², vous devrez déposer une déclaration préalable auprès de la mairie de votre commune, à condition que la superficie totale de votre maison n’excède pas 150 m². Dans les zones urbaines, cette même déclaration préalable peut également suffire pour les vérandas d’une surface maximale de 40 m². Au-delà de cette taille, et en fonction de votre lieu de résidence, vous devrez obtenir un permis de construire.

Il est important de noter qu’il est obligatoire de faire appel à un architecte si votre habitation dépasse 150 m² avant la réalisation des travaux. Pour récolter toutes les informations nécessaires, rapprochez-vous de votre mairie, qui pourra vous guider dans ces démarches spécifiques.

What are the solutions for installing a classic conservatory?

To make the right choices for your traditional conservatory, it is essential to take several factors into account. First of all, determine the intended use of your future space: this will help you define the optimal size to meet your needs. Next, consider the architecture of your house, and its overall aesthetic: your conservatory should blend in harmoniously with it.

It is also strongly recommended that you call in a specialist to install your structure. An expert will be able to assess the feasibility of your project, advise you on the appropriate materials and guarantee a high-quality construction. It is essential that your extension complies with the standards and regulations in force. Don't hesitate to call on our professionals for guidance in carrying out your project!

What budget should I allow for this conservatory model?

The budget required for a conservatory depends on several factors: its surface area, the materials used, the model chosen and the technical options you wish to add. Additional equipment, such as integrated shutters, interior blinds or roof insulation, will also have an impact on the final price of the structure.

It is also important to take into account the taxes associated with the conservatory, as it may be subject to property tax and council tax as a fixed construction.

To calculate the price of your conservatory and obtain a quotation, please do not hesitate to contact our advisors, who will help you to estimate the budget required for your project.
