Conservatories are a great way to add extra living space to your home. They can be customised to match a variety of architectural styles, including traditional and modern homes.
uPVC conservatories require minimal maintenance. They’re also insulated, which means they can maintain a comfortable temperature year-round. Plus, they’re resistant to rust and corrosion.
Tiled Conservatory Roofs
A tiled conservatory roof is a fantastic solution for any home improvement project. The roof is incredibly durable and comes in a range of colours so that you can perfectly match it to the existing tiles on your property. It is also watertight so that your conservatory can resist leaking. This is a major problem for glass and polycarbonate conservatories that are often found to suffer from leaking and the damage this can cause.
With a new solid roof you can enjoy your conservatory all year round. A solid roof will prevent the dramatic temperature changes that plague old glass and polycarbonate conservatories. This will allow you to use your conservatory at any time of day and reduce your energy bills at the same time. This is exactly what the Harrington’s achieved with their replacement roof that we installed at their home in South Wales. The solid roof is said to be up to 15 times more effective at keeping heat in compared with their previous glass and polycarbonate roof.
Roof Vents
When a conservatory is used regularly the moisture content in the air can build up to the point of condensation on cold surfaces such as windows and glass. This is very unsightly and if left untreated can cause damage to the frame and the timbers.
The problem can be avoided by leaving windows slightly open for a few hours a day to allow fresh air in. Ventilating tumble dryers, cooking and ensuring plants are not placed in the conservatory can also reduce the risk of condensation.
For an automatic alternative to opening windows or doors we offer the option of installing roof vents that are thermostatically controlled to provide a gentle stream of ventilation to maintain the ambient temperature in the conservatory. These can be operated manually using a brass worm drive opening mechanism and decorative long handled opening pole or for ultimate control they can be electrically opened at the touch of a button.
Slate Roofs
The natural beauty and enduring durability of slate roofs make them a highly sought-after choice for many homeowners. This traditional metamorphic rock is a stunning material that adds a touch of luxury to any home and can easily last for decades.
A popular choice for traditional conservatory roofs, Welsh slate is renowned for its gorgeous aesthetics and impressive strength. This timeless roof tile is naturally resistant to acids, alkalis and UV light exposure, making it a great option for even the harshest of environmental conditions.
Featuring a bespoke range of solid roof colour options, our Cardiff homeowners can choose a finish that complements their existing property perfectly. By incorporating roof vents, this style of conservatory roof can also help to keep the space comfortable and warm all year round. This is achieved through the insulating properties of this roof type, which ensures that the Cardiff homeowner won’t have to rely on their heating as much as they would normally.
Glazed Conservatory Roofs
Glazed conservatory roofs allow for a great deal of natural light to flood into your new living space. This is especially beneficial as it reduces the need for electrical lighting, helping you save on your energy bills.
uPVC conservatories also offer a great amount of privacy, reducing the number of people who can see inside. This helps to make it far more relaxing and enjoyable to spend time in your home.
Our glazed conservatory roofs also feature self-cleaning glass, which makes it far easier to maintain the appearance of your new living space. This feature works by incorporating a special coating that breaks down dirt as it floats in the air.
Our glazed conservatory roofs have been developed with the help of industry specific engineers and manufacturing directors, so you can feel assured that you’re getting a quality product. They’re available in a wide range of colours and styles, which will allow you to find the perfect roof for your existing property. conservatories south Wales
