Replacement Conservatory Roofs: Everything You Need to Know
If you have a conservatory that feels too hot in the summer or too cold in the winter, you might need to consider a replacement conservatory roof. Alternatively, if your conservatory roof is over 10-15 years old or looking a bit weathered – it might be a good chance to update it. Replacing your conservatory roof is an excellent way to improve your current living space. In this article, we at Dunraven Windows can help you explore the different types of replacement conservatory roofs available, their benefits, and what to consider before making the decision.
Reasons to Replace Your Conservatory Roof
Over time, conservatory roofs can suffer from wear and tear, leading to issues such as leaks, poor insulation, and reduced aesthetic appeal. Depending on the material and features of your conservatory, a replacement roof could make it more thermally efficient, aesthetically pleasing, or more durable in different weather conditions.
Types of Replacement Conservatory Roofs
When considering which replacement conservatory roof to choose, there are several options:
Glass Conservatory Roofs
Glass roofs are an excellent option – especially if you are looking for maximised natural light. They can make a small space look and feel bigger and more ventilated. They are sleek and aesthetically pleasing due to the elegant look and they create a focal point to your property. They are most commonly built using uPVC frames which are durable and require very little maintenance.
Solid Conservatory Roofs
Solid roofs are another great option, particularly if you are looking to improve the insulation in your home. These roofs can be made from panels and other materials that provide superior heat retention but also keep your home cool in the summer. A solid roof can transform your conservatory into a versatile space and acts similarly to having an extension added to your home. Not only this, they look sleek and smart – giving your home a modern look.
Tiled Conservatory Roofs
Here at Dunraven Windows, we also fabricate bespoke tiled conservatory roofs which are fitted with tiles that are fitted as sets panel by panel, which ensure high durability and security. The material of these conservatory roofs offers great insulation as well as incredible soundproofing – reducing external noise from weather conditions. As they are a strong roof replacement, they can also withstand heavy rain and wind.
Roof Lanterns and Flat Skylights
As an alternative to completely replacing your conservatory roof, we also fit roof lanterns and flat skylights which can be fitted into your existing conservatory roof (depending on your current roof). Skylights are flat and quick to install – offering a minimalist design. Roof lanterns are pitched and due to their multi-dimensional design, they flood the room with light.

It is important to ensure that you confirm the budget you have in mind, the advantages you want out of the conservatory roof, and whether the roof is permitted under your building regulations.
