A conservatory is a great addition to any home, providing you with some much-needed space for your family to enjoy. As conservatories begin to age, they can start to lose some of their thermal efficiency. You may notice your conservatory is draughty or cold in the winter and far too hot in the summer. Replacing your conservatory roof will improve the energy efficiency of your conservatory whilst adding value to your home.
At Halstead Glass, we offer a selection of conservatory roofs that will greatly improve the look and properties of your home. Deciding which replacement roof is best for you can feel overwhelming which is why we’ve put together this helpful guide.
Replacement conservatory LivinROOF
A replacement LivinROOF is the perfect choice when you’re looking to modernise your conservatory. Putting a sophisticated spin on a traditional conservatory with an urban grey finish on the LivinROOF. Combining solid and glass roof panels allows you to completely customise your conservatory to complement your home. You’re able to decide how many glass panels you want and where you place them.
The LivinROOF is capable of reaching U-values as low as 0.16, which is as much as 15 times more efficient than the roof it will be replacing. Creating a comfortable and usable conservatory all year round. You’ll even notice your energy bills decreasing which is much needed since prices are beginning to climb.
Replacement conservatory Glass roof
Many old conservatories were installed with polycarbonate roofs, this was because it was an incredibly durable material that allowed plenty of natural to fill your conservatory. Although, we now know that polycarbonate isn’t a good thermal insulator, and it can’t keep your conservatory comfortable all year round. A modern glass conservatory roof is the perfect alternative, offering gorgeous floods of natural light whilst achieving exceptional levels of thermal efficiency.
At Halstead Glass, our glass roofs are made to measure so they can be fitted perfectly to your conservatory for the ultimate look and maximum energy efficiency. As all our glass roofs are made to measure, you’re able to fit it onto nearly all styles of conservatory, including:
- Victorian
- Lean-To
- P-shaped
- Georgian
- Gable
We even offer self-cleaning glass units, that use the sun’s natural heat to burn away dirt and grime from on top of the roof.
You can even add an insulated pelmet that will sit internally around the perimeter of your conservatory. The pelmet can recreate the look of a flat roof with a roof lantern integrated, you’ll receive the light of a traditional conservatory and the look of an orangery without having to replace the entire conservatory.
Replacement conservatory Guardian Warm Roof
The Guardian Warm Roof is a high-quality option when you’re looking to replace your conservatory roof. Although the Guardian Warm Roof is a tiled roof you don’t need to compromise on natural light, incorporate Fakro roof windows into the design of your roof, they’ll allow light to pour in and can provide additional ventilation in the summer.
Alternatively, you can incorporate an Atlas roof light into the design of your conservatory roof. Its ultra-sleek design will allow it to blend seamlessly into the conservatory style. The roof lights are manufactured with toughened double glazing so you won’t need to compromise on security by having one installed.
A Guardian Warm Roof will offer you the ultimate customisation opportunities, you’ll get to design the interior style as well as the exterior style. Customise the exterior to perfectly suit the existing style of your home by deciding between:
- Guardian Roof Slate, providing a traditional aesthetic (available in 5 natural colours)
