Are you planning to build a terrace to enjoy the sun and breeze during the summer months? However, by converting it into a veranda<\/a>, you can enjoy it all year round. The roof protects your terrace from the elements. Not only will you continue to enjoy your outdoor living room in winter, but it will also bring style to your home.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/www.verandair.com\/en\/contact\/” button_text=”Let's discuss your project” button_alignment=”center” _builder_version=”4.19.2″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_button][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.2″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Firstly, by covering your terrace, you can enjoy this outdoor space for a longer period of the year<\/strong>, whatever the weather. So you can extend your summer evenings<\/strong> or enjoy your terrace even when it’s raining or snowing.<\/p>\n What’s more, a covered terrace adds value to your home<\/strong>, as it becomes a true extension of your living space and can therefore increase your living area. You can therefore consider this installation as a real investment<\/strong>.<\/p>\n It can also beautify your property<\/strong>, offering an elegant, modern look that enhances your home and the surrounding landscape.<\/p>\n Covering your terrace, especially with a veranda or pergola ,<\/strong> can add functionality<\/strong> to your outdoor space. For example, a kitchenette, a reading corner or a Jacuzzi.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.verandair.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/veranda-bioclimatique-verandair-realisation.jpg” alt=”retractable patio cover” title_text=”retractable patio cover” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.19.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”30px||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.2″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Terraces, pergolas<\/a> and verandas<\/a> are among the most popular home furnishings. Yet each extension has its own distinctive features.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n In most cases, this consists of a concrete slab laid on a plot of land, to which wood or composite slats, tiles or stone are added. You can build a covered terrace as an extension, so you can enjoy your garden all the time.<\/p>\n If your terrace doesn’t have a shelter, you can shade it with a parasol<\/strong>, awning, stretched canvas, arbour or canopy. These will also add a decorative touch.<\/strong><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.verandair.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/pergola-lames-orientables.jpg” alt=”bioclimatic pergola with adjustable aluminium slats, protecting a terrace” title_text=”pergola with adjustable slats” _builder_version=”4.19.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n A pergola is a wooden or aluminum structure with a roof<\/strong>. It protects you from the vagaries of the weather and the sun’s rays as you lounge in your garden furniture on your terrace. It also adds a certain style to the exterior of your home.<\/strong><\/p>\n Its advantages are numerous: you can add it to your home as an extension, or set it up in the middle of the garden. The roof can be :<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/www.verandair.com\/fr\/veranda\/” button_text=”Discover VERANDAIR\u00ae conservatories” button_alignment=”center” _builder_version=”4.19.2″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_button][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.2″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n The veranda<\/a> is a real living space<\/strong>. The design is modern and stylish. The glass veranda is distinguished by its high level of luminosity. It can be made of aluminum, wood or PVC. Its walls are fitted with double or triple glazing to prevent heat loss <\/strong>. <\/p>\n There are two types of veranda: traditional and retractable<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n This classic patio cover<\/a> is built on an insulated concrete slab. It offers several benefits. You can keep it busy all year round<\/strong>. You can heat the veranda in several ways: with a stove, with underfloor heating or by installing radiators. It is covered by an insulated roof<\/strong>. It can also be double- or triple-glazed to let the sunlight flood into your home.<\/p>\n However, these verandas have several disadvantages<\/strong>: they take a long time to build and cost more.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.verandair.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/abri-terrasse-decouvert-verandair.jpg” alt=”open retractable patio enclosure ” title_text=”open terrace verandair” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.19.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n It’s a good compromise between a traditional veranda and a pergola<\/strong>. In fact, this retractable patio enclosure<\/a> is a real living space that you can enjoy in any season. You can open the roof and walls as you like when the weather’s fine, and close them when the showers arrive.<\/p>\n Verandas<\/a> can be designed to suit individual tastes<\/strong>: create a living room, dining room, outdoor kitchen, winter garden, etc. Blinds or curtains can be deployed on the walls to add a modern touch to the decor<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\nWhy cover your terrace?<\/h2>\n
