A Brighter Outlook: Lantern Roof Upgrade 

This much-loved conservatory in RG41 had served its purpose well over the years – but the homeowner felt it was time for a refresh. Sitting directly beneath a bedroom window, the original double-hipped glass roof was quite prominent from above, and the room beneath was becoming harder to enjoy year-round.

The Brief:

  • Create a more streamlined roofline
  • Maintain natural light with improved insulation
  • Enhance the garden room feel inside
  • Keep the views and upgrade the finish

Our Solution:

We replaced the original glazed structure with a low-profile fibreglass roof, finished with a stunning lantern skylight. This approach softened the impact from the upstairs view while flooding the room with light from above – a perfect balance of practicality and elegance.

The newly modernised conservatory now feels more like an integrated part of the home, with improved comfort levels, a smart new look, and all-day usability.

Explore the transformation:

  • A crisp new silhouette that complements the property’s architecture
  • A peaceful interior that retains the connection to the garden
  • Thoughtful upgrades that honour the original layout

Why a Lantern ​Roof Might Be Right for You

    • Discreet from the outside, light-filled from within
    • Better temperature control compared to full-glass roofs
    • Ideal for overlooked gardens or bungalows
    • Clean, modern finish to suit any home style
