If you’re looking for a budget conservatory, uPVC is certainly the material to go for. How much a uPVC conservatory costs will depend on the type of conservatory you choose, but generally, the cheapest type of conservatory is a lean-to. A 3.5m x 3.5m lean-to conservatory can cost as little as £9,000, but the average cost is £12,000 for supply and installation.
Mid-range conservatories can be made from uPVC, but you can also find mid-range conservatories made from wood. A good option for an average-priced conservatory is an Edwardian-style, which is usually square or rectangular in shape. It has sleek lines with a pitched roof and a flat front, making them ideal for looking out onto your garden. Edwardian conservatories cost around £11,000 in uPVC and around £17,500 in wood for a 3.5m x 3.5m structure.
The most luxurious type of conservatory material is aluminium, as it has great thermal properties, offers slim frames to allow the most light in through your windows and needs virtually no maintenance. Aluminium conservatories generally cost 25% more than uPVC ones, so you should expect to pay at least £11,250 for a lean-to and £13,750 for an Edwardian conservatory. Victorian conservatories are a more ornate version of an Edwardian conservatory and can cost around £15,000 for a uPVC version, £16,750 for a wooden version and £18,700 for an aluminium one.
