Tell-tale signs of an ageing polycarbonate roof
An ageing polycarbonate roof is often the first sign that a conservatory could benefit from an upgrade.
Over time, polycarbonate panels can become discoloured, and older roof systems may struggle to provide the insulation expected from a modern living space.
But before replacing the roof, it's worth looking at the rest of the conservatory too.
How old are your conservatory windows and wall frames?
If they're approaching 20 years old, it may be worth checking their condition and thermal performance. Replacing older glazing and frames alongside the roof could help improve the efficiency of the entire room.
A complete conservatory transformation in Woking
For this project, we went a little further than a straightforward roof replacement.
The work included:
- Removing the original polycarbonate roof
- Replacing the existing wall frames with new uPVC frames
- Adding insulation to the dwarf walls
- Installing a new insulated tiled roof
The photographs take you through the process, from the original conservatory and detailed roof design to the construction stages and finished result.
A Conservatory Renewed for Year-Round Use
Every conservatory is different. Some existing frames are perfectly suitable for retaining, while others may benefit from replacement.
That's why it's important to assess the condition of the whole structure before deciding on the best approach.
The result? The same conservatory footprint, but a completely renewed structure designed to provide a more practical, usable living space throughout the year.
