Feeling A Chill? Upgrade Your Conservatory With A Solid Roof

It seems crazy to say this at a time when we’re experiencing one of the hottest and longest heatwaves in recent memory but there are some existing conservatories out there that feel a little chilly at night time. And if they’re getting cold now, just imagine how much colder they’ll feel once winter returns.

Solid Tiled Roof Orangery

It’s actually not all that strange for a conservatory to fall victim to the summer weather and the usual cause of this is the roofing system attached to the design as old glass and polycarbonate conservatory roofs are susceptible to offering insufficient thermal efficiency as they age. When the heat of the sun hits them, too much of that warmth hits the interior and also causes them to overheat.

So, what can you do to resolve the problem? Our suggestion is that the existing roofing system is taken out and exchanged for a tiled solid roof.

Get solid temperature regulation in summer and all other seasons

Consisting of lightweight tiles / slates, a solid roof can be retrospectively fitted to many existing conservatory styles to ensure you of an extension that delivers a cosy feel in all weathers. It won’t be an obvious replacement roof either as the tiles / slates mimic the appearance of authentic tiles / slates.

You need to be aware though that upgrading an existing conservatory to include a solid roof is considered to be a “change of use”. If this isn’t covered by Permitted Development Rights, Building Regulation Approval and Planning Permission will be required before the fitting of a solid roof proceeds.

Quick fitting and a quick lasting fix

Once you know that you’re good to go ahead with a solid roof installation it only takes a matter of days to have it in place of an old roof.

Pre-manufacturing of the solid roof off-site helps to quicken the installation process with most solid roofs capable of being made watertight within just a few hours. You get a lengthy guarantee (20 years) so that you’re safeguarded against any potential issues, testament to both the quality of the fitting and the product itself.
