We certainly think so; installing a Living Space will give you extra space, increase the value of your property and provide a beautiful, eye-catching focal point.

Living Spaces are an incredibly versatile type of extension. You can use them as a dining room or a large social area to host gatherings, or simply as a place of tranquillity to relax and unwind. Plus, they rarely require planning permission. If you’re hankering after a little extra room to work with, a Living Space from Abbey Windows is the perfect choice.

It varies. We pride ourselves on offering affordable home extensions but there is no hard and fast answer. Factors like the size of the project, your choice of extras and the location of the property will impact the final cost.

If you’re interested in getting a personalised estimate, we recommend getting a bespoke quote from us. We’ll need to know your preferred size and style, your location and any additional information.

In many cases, our living spaces can be built under ‘Permitted Development’ rights, meaning you won’t need to apply for full planning permission. This generally applies if the extension falls within specific size limits and guidelines relative to your original property. However, if your home is in a conservation area, a listed building, or if the design exceeds standard dimensions, permission may be required.

When you choose Abbey Windows, our team will guide you through the entire process. We assess your home’s requirements during your free design consultation and handle the necessary paperwork or building regulations compliance on your behalf to ensure a completely stress-free installation.

Absolutely. Gone are the days of glazed extensions being too hot in the summer and too cold in the winter. Our modern living spaces utilise cutting-edge thermal technology, including high-performance double glazing with low-emissivity (Low-E) glass, insulated internal pelmets, and advanced roofing systems like the Ultraroof.

These materials feature exceptional U-values that work to retain internal warmth during the winter while reflecting up to 86% of solar heat during the summer. This ensures your new space maintains a comfortable, stable temperature 365 days a year, making it perfect for a permanent lounge, dining nook, or home office.
