Simple Lines, Maximum Space — the Smart-Value Sun Room
Clean-lined Lean-To conservatories with the market-leading Ultraframe roof and energy-efficient Profile 22 frames, designed and built by our Martlesham team. Glass or polycarbonate roofs, A-rated glazing as standard, and our 10-year guarantee.
A Room That Changes How You Live
The Lean-To (sometimes called a Mediterranean or sun-room style) is the simplest and most contemporary conservatory shape: a clean rectangle with a single sloping roof that leans back against the house. That simplicity is its genius — it's the most cost-effective style we build, its variable roof pitch means it can tuck neatly under low bungalow eaves or awkward first-floor windows, and its square corners waste none of your garden. It's a favourite for bungalows in Felixstowe and Kesgrave, and for anyone who loves crisp, modern lines.
Every conservatory we build pairs the Ultraframe roof — the UK's market-leading conservatory roof system, individually engineered to your postcode's wind and snow loads and supplied through Emplas — with energy-efficient Profile 22 uPVC frames fitted with A-rated glazed units as standard. You choose a performance glass or polycarbonate roof (compared below), your frame colour, and finishing touches from integrated roof vents to French, patio or bifold doors. Prefer a different shape? We also build Victorian and Gable conservatories, and we'll happily talk you through all three at your design visit. It's all designed, built and finished by our own team from our Martlesham base, in gardens across Kesgrave, Ipswich, Woodbridge, Felixstowe and throughout Suffolk and Essex.
Every project starts with a free, no-obligation design visit and quotation, and is protected by our 10-year guarantee.
Choose Your Roof
The single biggest decision on any conservatory is the roof glazing. Both options below sit on the same Ultraframe structure — the difference is comfort, quietness and budget. Our consultants will price both for you so you can compare properly.
Ultraframe Performance Glass Roof
Self-cleaning Conservaglass units that work all year round: solar-control coatings bounce summer heat away while low-E layers hold your warmth in winter. Rain sounds like rain — not a drum solo — and the sky view is crystal clear. The choice for a true all-seasons room.
| Glazing | Self-cleaning Conservaglass, 24–35mm units |
|---|---|
| Solar control | Up to 81% solar heat rejection |
| UV protection | Up to 94% (protects furnishings) |
| Structure | Ultraframe Classic, engineered to your postcode |
| Ventilation | Built-in trickle ventilation as standard |
| Tints | Blue, neutral, aqua, bronze & clear options |
Ultraframe Polycarbonate Roof
Modern multiwall polycarbonate is a world away from the thin, noisy sheets of the 1990s — its layered air chambers insulate surprisingly well, it's lightweight, tough, and it trims a meaningful amount off the project cost. A sound choice for sheltered spots and sensible budgets.
| Glazing | Multiwall polycarbonate, 25–35mm |
|---|---|
| Finish options | Clear, opal & heat-reflecting tints |
| Weight | Lightweight — gentle on the structure |
| Structure | Ultraframe Classic, engineered to your postcode |
| Ventilation | Built-in trickle ventilation as standard |
| Budget | The most cost-effective roof option |

Frequently Asked Questions
What Our Conservatory Customers Say
Reviews related to our conservatories
Our conservatory has become the room we live in. The performance glass really works — we had breakfast in there on Boxing Day and it was lovely and warm.
From the design visit to the final clean-up the team were superb. The build matched our brickwork beautifully and finished right on the timeline they quoted.
No pressure at all, honest advice on glass versus polycarbonate, and they even suggested a cheaper option than the one we'd asked about. Refreshing.
Cannot recommend Homestyle enough. Our garden room has stood up to two coastal winters without a creak, and it still looks brand new.
