Choosing the Right Conservatory Roof

When it comes to enhancing your home with a conservatory, one of the most crucial decisions you’ll make is selecting the right roof. At JWS, we understand that your conservatory roof not only influences your home’s style, but also its comfort, energy efficiency, and its long term durability. Whether you’re considering adding a new conservatory to bring a new space into your home, or wanting to upgrade your existing conservatory roof, making sure you chose the right one can make all the difference in creating a welcoming extension that suits your lifestyle and home perfectly.

Why the Right Conservatory Roof Matters

The conservatory roof contributes significantly to your new living space’s temperature control, light, and style. A poorly chosen roof can make your conservatory too hot in summer or chilly in winter, while a well-selected roof helps maintain a comfortable environment all year round. Besides, it affects the amount of natural light entering the room and how your conservatory blends with the rest of your home.

At JWS, we’re here to help you every step of the way, ready to make sure you get exactly what you want from your conservatory and its roof.

Types of Conservatory Roofs

There are multiple types of conservatory roofs that are available for you to choose from. Here at JWS, we carefully craft both Glass and Tiled roofs to match your home’s aesthetics, needs, and your preferences. Both come with their own strengths and considerations:

Glass Roofs

Glass conservatory roofs are classic and bring an unbeatable amount of natural light into your conservatory, creating a bright, airy feel. Modern glass conservatory roofs often utilise newer glazing technology, which can include solar control coatings to reduce heat gain and keep your space cooler in summer, alongside double or triple glazing to help retain heat during the winter. However, while glass roofs offer stunning views of the sky, they may require additional heating in colder months and can sometimes lead to overheating during peak sunshine.

Tiled Roofs

For those seeking year-round comfort and a room that truly feels part of the home, tiled conservatory roofs are an excellent option. These roofs are highly insulated, providing superior temperature control, noise reduction, and privacy from nosey neighbours. They transform your conservatory from a glasshouse into a fully functional living space suitable for all seasons. Although solid roofs may reduce some natural light, options such as skylights or roof lanterns can be included to help capture the sunshine coming through. 

Choosing What’s Right for You

When deciding on the right conservatory roof, it is important to think about your budget, the style of your property, and how you plan to use the space. For example, if you want a room to stay cooler in the summer, a tiled or solid roof with good insulation might be the better choice to avoid overheating. However, if you are after a light-filled room for plants or casual relaxation, a glass roof could be ideal.

Energy efficiency should not be overlooked. Modern conservatory roofs, especially solid or glazed options, come with high-performance insulation and glazing standards that help reduce heat loss and minimise energy costs.

Planning permission and building regulations may also impact your choice. Some types of conservatory roofs necessitate additional planning permission or must meet specific building regulations, so it is wise to consult with experienced professionals, like JWS, during the early stages of your project.
