IS YOUR CONSERVATORY TOO COLD? AFTER

Dont replace your conservatory roof, just insulate it !

C

osy Conservatory is a Lytham based conservatory insulation specialist that transforms the inside of your conservatory roof, to give it a fully insulated, strong, and smooth plastered ceiling, whilst keeping the original shape of your roof. It does all this without even having to change anything on the outside of your conservatory, so no planning permission is required.

After cross-ventilating the ceiling, Cosy Conservatory installs a high performance composite insulation to the inside ceiling of the conservatory, there are multiple layers of reflective and insulating materials to reduce heat-loss by a stunning 90%.

No other conservatory insulation solution can deliver anywhere near this figure. Your conservatory will stay warm in the Winter, and prevent the ‘greenhouse effect’ during Summer.

You’ll therefore need to use far less energy to keep your conservatory warm, drastically reducing energy costs.

After the support framework, cross ventilation, insulation and panelling is installed, the conservatory ceiling will then be plastered to perfection, allowing it to be painted in the colour of your choice. The entire process takes just 1 to 3 days to complete, depending on the size of the conservatory. Your conservatory ceiling will no longer look like a conservatory ceiling, but instead will match perfectly with all the other rooms of your house. And because the entire conservatory will be strengthened and insulated rain noise is reduced by 95%, so you can enjoy that dinner party without worrying whether it’s going to rain.

BEFORE

KEEP THE HEAT IN AND THE COLD OUT

Amazingly it has all these benefits, whilst at the same time costing less, on average, than ceiling blinds, and a quarter of the cost of plastic tile effect roofs, making it the most cost effective solution available.

A brief introduction to Probate

---------------------------A Grant of Probate is one of two forms of Grants of Representation issued by the various Probate Registers which are dotted up and down the country.

Whilst being a technical legal term, the effect of a Grant of Administration is really very simple. It is an Order confirming that one or more people have the legal authority to take over the financial and legal affairs of a deceased person. In law we called this the administration of an estate.

Grants of Representation are issued by the Probate Registry because a deceased person can no longer manage their own affairs. They cannot write cheques, pay bills or sell their home. In order to ensure that these things are done properly, without illegal interference or fraud, English Law requires that an Executor or Representative be officially appointed by the High Court, through the Probate Registry to take over and administer the deceased person’s affairs.

Probate, has the legal authority to wind down the deceased person’s affairs. They can carry out simple tasks, such as payment of outstanding bills, as well as releasing money from bank accounts and selling or distributing the deceased person’s home and personal property.

There are two types of Grant of Representation.

The first is a Grant of Probate. A Grant of Probate is issued where the deceased person left a valid will and nominated one or more people to act as their Executors once they have died. If a person or persons are named as an Executor in the will, then those persons are entitled to apply to the Probate Registry for Grant of Probate.

The second type of Grant is a Grant of Letters of Administration. This is the Order or Grant which a deceased relative, friend or solicitor must apply for if the deceased person has not left a will and not named people as their Executors.

For more information please visit www.fyldelaw.co.uk

In simple terms, this means that the person that receives the Grant of Representation, or Grant of

Weatherseal it!

Applying water seal treatments to your exterior masonry and stonework will benefit your home in a number of ways. The most important among these include: Protection against structural damage to your brickwork Over time natural weathering gradually degrades the face of most bricks, stone and mortar joints. Once the surface is wet and holding water, it becomes vulnerable to the freeze/thaw cycle and cracks often form in bricks and pointing leading to further moisture penetration and more retained moisture in the wall. Such “porous” walls readily soak in water which eventually penetrates right through to the interior walls where it typically shows up as damp patches on your plaster after heavy rain. By applying a kingfisher water seal you will protect your building from weathering and the destructive effects of this “lateral” penetrating damp.

Reduce the effects of moulds, mosses, weathering and efflorescence on your masonry. These treatments not only benefit your building structurally but they can also greatly improve your homes aesthetic appeal by inhibiting the growth of mosses & green mould, which deprived of moisture grow much less aggressively.

In addition, our products have been used to successfully treat the unsightly efflorescent white

salts or “white fur” staining which often appears on brick-built properties. (Salts are naturally present in sand, cement, and the clay used in brick manufacture). Brick Efflorescence occurs as water soaks into the bricks and mortar joints and then evaporates out carrying salt and other minerals to the surface, leaving the unsightly white residue or “fur”. Water seal treatments such as Extreme Climate and Superseal prevent this by stopping the water from penetrating the surface of the bricks in the first place. If Efflorescence has already occurred use our Eco-Brick Cleaner to remove them before using a water seal.

Protect your home from heat loss through your walls Kingfisher’s Next Generation Waterseal treatment, “Extreme Climate” can also reduce heat loss in some walls by up to 30%. Thermal heat loss due to water penetration arises because a wet wall is a cold wall - (think of standing on a windy hillside in soaking wet clothing compared to being in a dry, waterproof jacket!). Your home is exactly the same - energy from your heating is effectively being drawn or sapped into the cold, damp wall and wasted in energy transfer as your heating works to evaporate this moisture. By reducing the moisture levels within the walls of your property, water seal treatment reduces this home heat loss and as a result can significantly reduce both your energy costs and your carbon foot print.

Don’t move, Improve!

Due to the financial market some homeowners have been unable to sell their homes. If you had hoped to sell because you need more room, there may be another solution.

Extensions, loft and garage conversions are an obvious way of adding more living space to your home.

Alternatively look at using your existing floor space more productively. The basic layout of a house rarely changes, yet the way we live in and use our homes has changed.

A house constructed in the 60’s rarely meets the needs of a modern family without some reorganisation.

By changing the way rooms are accessed, moving thoroughfares and even windows, furniture can be redistributed and new areas of light and space become accessible.

Dividing large bedrooms may be the answer to siblings currently having to share. If making these changes to your home is something you would like to consider, ensure you turn to a reputable local builder like E.K Build to discuss your ideas. It could be that you require planning permission or building regulations; E.K Build will be able to offer advice on this

WYRE ARCHAEOLOGY Wyre Archaeology (WAG) offers a rare opportunity for anyone with an interest in the history of the Fylde Coast and North Preston areas to get hands on experience of practical archaeology through our regular programme of excavations and other activities.

Our 2013 BIG DIG found evidence of Iron Age, Roman and Early Mediaeval presence in the Thornton area and we’ll be following up these tantalising leads in future digs. In the 2014 season we also plan to investigate the elusive ‘Danes Pad’ and if you have an idea for a dig just get in touch. WAG is open to people of all ages and has previously provided practical experience for students going on to study for degrees in Archaeology. We’re keen to have new digging members but you’d be welcome whatever skill you might be able to bring at whatever level. We’re fully insured and we provide basic training and equipment.

We’re affiliated to the Council for British Archaeology and have strong links with local professionals in the field. We meet at Farmer Parr’s in Thornton on the 3rd Wednesday of each month, starting at 7.00pm, to keep everyone informed of activities and there are occasional guest speakers. Non-members may attend up to 3 meetings without charge. If you’d like to come just e-mail the Secretary on: secwyrearch@aol.com or call 0752 850 3710. For the bigger picture and details of meetings visit www.wyrearchaeology.org.uk
