Modern Lean-To Conservatories: Traditional and Contemporary Styles
Here to help
The Lean-to Conservatory is the simplest design, featuring clean lines that create a contemporary look. This style is especially popular for modern homes.
A lean-to conservatory, whether traditional or contemporary, is ideal for properties with limited space under the eaves, such as bungalows, or for areas with challenging layouts. The adjustable roof pitch allows a shallow angle to fit beneath a low bungalow roof, while a steeper pitch suits terraced houses.
Lean-to conservatories, also known as sunrooms or garden rooms, introduce a Mediterranean feel by capturing winter sunlight and converting it into heat. Their simple design maximises usable space in a cost-effective way.
The straightforward design of lean-to conservatories, often utilising an existing wall, reduces time, labour, and overall costs. Their simplicity, along with easy access to utilities (electricity and water) from the house, keeps installation and maintenance costs low.
A lean-to conservatory can enhance your home's energy efficiency, provide shelter, and capture winter sunlight. It can serve as a greenhouse, playroom, dining area, lounge, or kitchen. With features such as floor heating and double glazing, you can enjoy a versatile new living space at a reduced cost.
If planning permission is required, we will handle the process for you to ensure a seamless, hassle-free experience.

Glevum Windows and doors are of excellent quality and the fitters, Matt and Dean were both quick, efficient and tidy workers. We found them both friendly and polite. We would not hesitate to recommend the Company and the service they provided.
N Harris (Pershore)
A very personal service; I felt valued as a customer and they listened to what I wanted. Excellent quality of product and service. I decided not to go with a larger well-known brand as they did not provide the same personal service in the quotation stage.
J. Miller (Symonds Yat)

Fitters are skilled and careful. Products are not the cheapest on the market but they are of the best quality and extremely good value for money.
R. Savage (Worcester)
Excellent service from start to finish, we had secondary Glazing fitted into our dental practice. Glevum attended when they said they would, completed the job with minimum disturbance to the daily running of the practice, and left their work place clean and tidy. The glazing has made such a difference, staff are much warmer and the radiators have been turned to low.
H. Pugh (Gloucester)
Glevum were prompt in quoting for the work. The order was placed and doors and windows far more quickly than other companies were able. The fitting was completed to a high standard. I'm very happy with the work and product!!
K. Smit (Bristol)
