Replacement Solid Conservatory Roofs

Since conservatories are considered “permitted developments,” they typically do not require planning permission for solid, tiled, or glass roofs. If you wish to construct an addition, you must follow building regulations.

Yes, insulating your conservatory roof will mean that the room stays at a consistent temperature all year round. A solid conservatory roof is likely to need a bit of insulation to regulate temperatures. If you want to keep a traditional conservatory feel to your room, you can choose to use glass panels within the roof.

Absolutely! You can remove your current roof and install a solid roof of your choice. We are able to do this for you, installing an energy-efficient and high-quality conservatory roof.

Solid conservatory roofs offer better insulation, reducing heat loss in winter and excessive heat in summer. They provide enhanced privacy and noise reduction compared to glass roofs.

Solid roofs have better insulation properties than glass or polycarbonate roofs, minimising heat loss and maintaining a more stable temperature inside the conservatory, thus reducing energy consumption.

Materials like tiled roofing, insulated panels, or composite materials are commonly used in solid conservatory roofs due to their durability and insulation properties.

Solid roofs significantly improve thermal efficiency, making conservatories more comfortable in varying weather conditions. However, additional heating or cooling might still be necessary in extreme temperatures.

Yes, solid conservatory roofs come in various styles and designs to complement different architectural aesthetics, offering options like pitched, flat, or lantern roofs.

Enhanced thermal performance, reduced glare, improved privacy, noise reduction, and the potential for year-round use are among the key benefits of installing a solid conservatory roof.

Yes, solid roofs typically offer better noise reduction, minimising external disturbances like rain noise or traffic sounds compared to glass or polycarbonate roofs.

Factors such as weight (requiring potential structural reinforcement), cost, and limited natural light compared to glass roofs are considerations to bear in mind when opting for solid conservatory roofs. However, their benefits often far outweigh the drawbacks, making a solid conservatory roof a popular choice.

Solid roofs reduce the amount of natural light compared to glass roofs. However, roof windows, skylights, or glazed sections can be incorporated to maintain some natural light while benefiting from the insulation of a solid roof.

Solid roofs generally require minimal maintenance. Periodic checks for leaks, cleaning of gutters, and inspecting for any damage are recommended, but they typically need less maintenance than other roof types.

Yes, roof windows or skylights can be integrated into solid conservatory roofs to allow more natural light. These additions can enhance brightness and ventilation while maintaining the insulation benefits.

Building regulations may apply when installing solid conservatory roofs, particularly regarding structural integrity, insulation standards, and ensuring proper drainage. Our team will take care of any permissions that are required for your project.

Solid conservatory roofs can enhance the appeal of a property by providing a more versatile and comfortable living space. While their impact on resale value varies, they can potentially increase the attractiveness and functionality of the property.

Yes, roof vents for ventilation and integrated lighting can be incorporated into solid conservatory roofs. These additions offer increased comfort and functionality to the space.

Yes, solid roofs offer greater UV protection compared to glass roofs, reducing the amount of UV rays entering the conservatory. However, some glazed sections may still allow UV penetration.

Yes, solid conservatory roofs offer customisation options in terms of materials, colours, and styles to match the aesthetics of your home, ensuring a cohesive look. Get in touch with us to discuss your project and our experts can discuss your customisation options with you and give you a quote.
