Conservatories have been a staple in home improvement for a long time, many believing it was a cheaper way to create more space. However the downside has always been that they are poorly insulated. But what if there was a hybrid-approach?

Solid tiled conservatory roof conversions have been growing more and more popular in recent years and there is good reason. So what are the benefits of a solid tiled conservatory roof?

1. Improved insulation & energy efficient

One of the biggest complaints home owners have about their conservatories is how cold they are in the winter and how the temperatures sore in the summer. Effectively leaving a room that you’ve spent money on, to create more space, unusable for the majority of the year. With a solid tiled roof conversion, your conservatory will be better insulated, creating a room that stays at a consistent temperature all year round. This may also have a knock on effect on your energy bills, saving you some money in the long run!

2. You don’t need planning permission

Whether you’ve got an existing conservatory roof you want to change, or you’re looking at building a new garden conservatory extension with a solid tiled roof, you don’t have to obtain planning permission. You can build a single story extension as long as it is in within permitted development.

3. Design

Solid tiled roofs look much smarter than traditional glass conservatory roofs. You can match the tiling to your existing roof tiles or even change it up. There are lots of options for you to choose from. Plus, why not throw in some ever popular bi-folding doors, add skylights to the roof so you don’t lose the light or even add spotlights on the outside!

4. Add value to your home

Whether you’re in your forever home, or looking to move on. Changing the roof on your conservatory will become a selling point of your house for potential buyers. They’ll see the room as a usable, aesthetically pleasing extension, instead of a conservatory that can be unusable for a lot of the year.

5. Noise & glare reduction

On those days when the temperature isn’t causing an issue in your conservatory, noise and glare can be two other issues to combat. Whether its chucking it down with rain or it is gorgeously sunny, strong glares can be distracting but over time, it’s also not good for your eyes and noise makes relaxing impossible! With a new solid tiled roof, you won’t have to worry about it anymore.
