So far, I have only received one offer and was shocked:
Aluminum rods, clear glass roof 10mm (0.4 inches) thick (you can walk on it!), about 2m x 5m (6.5 feet x 16.5 feet), cost around 10,000.
Is this realistic?
Of course, a plastic roof is much cheaper, but I’m afraid it will become dirty and opaque after a few years.
What is your opinion?
Thanks,
Alberto

According to the website, I would interpret that the Glasoase is an uninsulated conservatory and Terazza is just a roof covering?
That contradicts your statement.
Otherwise, what also affects the price is whether you have 3.5-meter (11.5 feet) long glass roofs or with a center bar. You can’t lift 3.5 meters (11.5 feet) anymore with two people, so you need more people and possibly different transport options.
Is the awning installed above or below the roof? Electrified/automated, etc.?
About 4-5 years ago, we had an offer from Weinor as well. Looking at the pictures, it was probably the Terazza plus with the overhang and the recessed gutter. That would have been 6x4 meters (20x13 feet) with an awning and vertical awning for around 20k. Of course, with the current price increases, that’s hardly comparable. We then decided on a somewhat more affordable provider. I think Weinor is already in the higher price segment. You are right. We want to gradually (not all at once) have a cold conservatory built. Under-roof awning and electrified, controlled by radio. Which provider did you choose?

You can only find out for sure by requesting exact details from one or two more companies.
- Is the color specified? Yes.
- Is the unit without any lighting? No. Weinor light strip with 3 spots costs an additional 1400*1.19.
- Is the unit without a vertical blind? No. Two vertical blinds (350 x 220 cm (138 x 87 inches) and 540 x 200 cm (213 x 79 inches)) cost an additional 5000*1.19.
- 2 or 3 support posts? 2 posts with roof reinforcement
- What kind of base? Foundation? Paving stones
But it really doesn’t look like a bargain. 😳 (Unless it’s not the "Daimler," but the "Maybach");) We want to gradually build a cold conservatory. Do you have a recommendation for a standard "Daimler"?
The supplier is Levens.
However, we decided not to go with the integrated on-roof mounting system developed by Levens, but chose the under-roof awning instead.
We set the two support posts back by 1 meter (3 feet) and had a 4 m (13 feet) wide vertical awning installed at the front between them.
I just skimmed through my earlier posts at the beginning of this thread. The contract was likely signed in 2017 and construction took place in spring 2018.
The total price was around 15,000. For the fully enclosed version, they quoted us approximately 10,000 more.
If it’s on the west side, I can only recommend going for 4 m (13 feet) instead of 3.5 m (11.5 feet). The first meter (3 feet) generally gets wet.
At least here in Saxony, you need a building permit / planning permission from a depth of 3 m (10 feet) anyway.
