- Warmer in winter, cooler in summer: proper insulation ends the ‘too hot, too cold’ conservatory problem

- A-rated windows and doors, with a choice of polycarbonate, glass or lightweight tiled roof finishes
- Real timber roof construction, fully compliant with building regulations
Guardian, Tapco & Specialised Conservatory Roof Systems
We fit market-leading solid roof systems, matched to your conservatory’s frame and your budget. Guardian solid roofs are fully insulated, lightweight tiled roofs engineered specifically for conservatory conversions, keeping you warm in January and cool in July. Tapco slate tiles give the look of natural slate at a fraction of the weight, so your existing frames carry the load safely. Both systems come with manufacturer-backed guarantees and are installed by our own team, never subcontractors. Not sure which suits your conservatory? Our free survey will tell you, including whether your existing base and frames are conversion-ready.
How a Conservatory Roof Conversion Works
- Free survey: we measure up, check your existing frames and base, and talk through tile and finish options.
- Structural check: we confirm your conservatory can take the new roof, and specify any strengthening needed.
- The conversion: old roof off, insulated timber structure on, tiled and plastered inside. Most jobs take under a week.
- Building regulations sign-off: a solid conservatory roof requires building regs approval; we handle the whole process and you receive the completion certificate.

Conservatory Roof Replacement Cost & Is It Worth It?
The cost of a conservatory roof replacement depends on the size of your conservatory, the roof style, and the material you choose. As a guide: swapping a polycarbonate roof for glass typically costs less than a full tiled (solid) roof conversion, which involves more structural work but delivers the biggest year-round improvement.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a conservatory roof replacement cost?
Cost varies with size, roof style and material. A polycarbonate-to-glass swap is usually the most affordable option, while a full tiled/solid roof conversion costs more but transforms the room into a usable, year-round space. Contact us for a free quote tailored to your conservatory.
Is a solid conservatory roof worth it?
For most homeowners, yes. A solid (tiled) roof insulates far better than polycarbonate or glass, cutting summer overheating and winter heat loss, and reduces rain noise significantly, turning an occasional-use conservatory into a room you can use all year.
How long does a conservatory roof replacement take?
Most conversions are completed within a few days to a week, depending on size and whether structural work is needed.
Do I need planning permission for a conservatory roof replacement?
Most like-for-like conservatory roof replacements fall under permitted development, but this can depend on your property and local planning rules, we’re happy to advise on your specific project.
Which conservatory roof systems do you use?
We primarily install Guardian solid roof systems and Tapco slate tiles: lightweight, fully insulated systems designed specifically for conservatory conversions, with manufacturer-backed guarantees.
Do I need building regulations approval for a solid conservatory roof?
Yes. Converting to a solid roof requires building regulations approval. We manage the application and inspection process for you, and every conversion we complete is signed off with a certificate.
