Over the past decade, conservatories have been increasing in popularity rapidly, with now 1 in 4 homes in the UK boasting this type of extension. However recently, the conservatory has been taken over in popularity by its older sister, the orangery.

Orangeries originally became popular in the Victorian times, as a way for the rich and affluent to grow exotic fruits in their own home. (Hence the term, orangery). Their large glass panels means that they provide excellent insulation throughout the year, making them an excellent growing place for tropical plants and an even better way of enjoying the British summer for longer.

Not only this, but orangeries have now become a perfect choice for those looking to add light and space to their home with a quintessentially English style. They are ornate in design and still retain much of their Victorian charm.

Typically, an orangery is more expensive than a conservatory and it is certainly more difficult to embark on a DIY job. However, given that they are typically constructed from stone or timber, they offer a more permanent extension to your home, improving the overall aesthetic and adding value and class to your property long term.

If you’ve decided to finally get started on that project to do up your spare room, a call to your home contents cover provider is unlikely to be high on your list of priorities. With exciting things like colour schemes, new furniture and the ambience of the room to think about, the comparatively dull world of insurance could seriously dent your creative mojo. However, avoid making that call to your contents insurer at your peril; if you’re spending a quid or two on the job, you’ll want to make sure everything is covered, especially considering the number of accidents us Brits have when carrying out a spot of DIY. According to the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents, a staggering 600 people go to hospital every day after suffering a DIY mishap. Every year 20,000 Brits are injured while using scalpels and knives during their home improvement projects, while an eye-watering 15,000 suffer an injury while using a saw. More painful still, 2,000 end up in A&E after a sticky situation with an axe, plane or wielding equipment.

Scary statistics, but there’s a real message behind the numbers: accidents can and do happen and it’s best to be prepared. Before you start a project, this could include making sure that you have adequate home insurance, including accidental damage cover. Although it’s nice to think of a project going as smoothly as possible, it’s not hard to imagine the things that can go wrong, whether it’s spilled paint pots, broken furniture or collapsed ceilings. Smash into the wrong wall or pull up the wrong floorboard and you could even be looking at structural damage.

So you’ve completed the project and everything’s gone smoothy, you’re out of the woods, right? Sadly not. Once you’ve finished creating your exciting new space, you may also need to put a call in to your insurance provider again – this time to let them know of your changes. The cost of new furniture can mount up, especially if you’ve let your imagination run away with you and invested in some opulent pieces to complete your new room. The easiest way to get the best value out of your home contents insurance is to regularly review exactly what’s in your home, how much it would cost to replace and get it covered. Pay for too much cover and you’re wasting money, cover too little and the results could be disastrous – find the right balance and you’ll be well on the road to a harmonious home.
