Hello World! Welcome Friends! Replace your conservatory roof for year-round enjoyment and to create the feeling of an extension of your house. Plus, insulation improvements will keep it cooler in summer and warmer in winter.
Glass roofs bring in plenty of natural light, creating an airy atmosphere in any room they adorn. Not only are they excellent insulators but their appearance also makes for a more pleasant aesthetic than polycarbonate alternatives.
Glass
Installation can take place either as part of an existing conservatory renovation project or a new build project, with most installations taking less time and requiring no structural modifications than polycarbonate roofs. They tend to be less costly as well.
Glass conservatory roofs are more energy efficient than polycarbonate ones, helping reduce heating bills. Furthermore, they let in plenty of light which creates the feeling of more space and brightness in any given room. A glass roof also helps minimize noise from outside sources as raindrops barely register with it creating an enjoyable and peaceful space to relax in.
Based on your choice of glass, your conservatory roof may either be tinted or coated with low emissivity (LE). This helps break down longwave ultraviolet and shortwave infrared rays from the sun – keeping it cooler in summer and warmer in winter.
Polycarbonate
Polycarbonate conservatory roofs have long been popular roofing options, often being utilized in commercial applications but now finding more use as residential solutions. Their properties include being strong yet lightweight materials capable of withstanding both low temperatures and extremely high ones while being easy to install and available in a range of colors.
According to this article – conservatories situated in sunny areas benefit greatly from using vinyl material as it helps reduce the amount of light entering, keeping temperatures cooler. Unfortunately, it is less suitable in colder regions since its ineffective insulation cannot keep heat inside; energy bills will likely be significantly higher as a result.
If you are considering installing a polycarbonate conservatory roof, it is crucial that the sheet be UV-protected to shield furniture and fabrics from the sun’s damaging rays. Clear polycarbonate sheets offer more natural lighting while bronze and opal versions offer greater privacy.
Polycarbonate roofs have seen improvement in energy transfer (or U-value), though their performance still does not match solid or tiled roofs. They still lose heat more rapidly, which could make a conservatory feel too warm during the daytime – however, professionals will have a better idea of what is right for you – so reach out today:

Tiles
Opting for glass or polycarbonate inserts will add an additional layer of protection, reducing water leaks. They are easily replaceable should anything go amiss and come in an assortment of colours to complement existing home decor.
One can choose from ceramic, porcelain, and clay tiles when selecting conservatory tiles for roofs. Clay is an environmentally friendly option with multiple colours to complement your home decor while ceramic tiles provide high levels of durability and fireproofing properties, lightweight installation times, and quick weatherproofing – which means no adjustments will need to be made for foundation adjustments of conservatories or adjustments required in their foundations. UPVC roofs also prove popular as low-cost maintenance solutions that come weatherproofed.
Furthermore, no leaks or other forms of damage should occur thanks to weatherproofing features being tested weatherproofing testing with leakproofing capabilities and watertightness tested weatherproofing standards, so no leakage issues arise in roofs installed over time – creating peace of mind in terms of cost savings and maintenance requirements when selecting roof options from these three materials.
Concrete
Traditional slate and clay conservatory roofs require frames in order to hold them in place, unlike their more modern UPVC counterparts which have become extremely popular. If you decide on one of these traditional options for your conservatory roof installation project, make sure your installer is experienced in fitting these types of roofing – it may even be worthwhile getting quotes from different companies to ensure you find one with both competitive pricing and superior installation quality.
If you are upgrading an existing conservatory and wish to comply with current planning regulations, a solid tiled roof may usually be allowed without needing planning permission provided predominantly glazed surfaces are covered by it; it is however advisable to check with the planning department of your local council first before proceeding with construction work.
Conservatories typically employ a strip foundation system, consisting of a trench dug to the desired depth and then filled with concrete. After this has been constructed, it will be covered by a damp-proof membrane, thick insulation layers, and eventually a floor screed system.
Steel
Insulating your conservatory roof could save money on heating bills while creating a usable space that is usable year-round. Guardian replacement roof system reduces thermal transfer, helping your home remain warmer in winter and cooler in summer, as well as helping regulate the temperature within your conservatory and reduce external noise pollution.
Tiled and solid conservatory roofs are designed to suit your property, available in an array of designs to meet aesthetic requirements. If desired, conservatory roofs can even feature Velux windows to add light and airiness. Recycled polymer tiles that replicate traditional slate or concrete tiles make installation quicker without altering its foundations – adding an uplifting atmosphere!
Glass roofs are an increasingly popular choice for conservatories, but their insulation does not keep your conservatory comfortable year-round. Thanks to advances in glass technology, performance roofs now exist that help address this problem; uPVC and aluminum conservatory roofs feature double-glazed units with an Argon gas fill between them that keeps things warm during winter and cool in summer.
