Why do our conversions work so well?
Traditionally conservatory roofs were designed to be weather-resistant coverings rather than roofs. This allowed most conservatories to be built without the need for planning permission. However, both glas and polycarbonate roofs have little or no thermal insulation and so they let heat in out in alarming quantities.
The simple addition of a properly installed thermal barrier, either as a roof, or an insulated ceiling, transforms the effeciveness of the roof to be as efficient as any room within the home.
In brief, they save energy in the winter and stay much cooler in the summer. So, theyre comfortabe all year.
Options
There are two main options to solve heat loss and heat gain through a conservatory roof
Supalite Solid roof conversion
Before
After
We remove and dispose of your existing conservatory roof. We replace it with a super-insulated, lightweight roof. We then plasterboard and plaster.
Insulated Internal Ceiling
Before
After
The Existing conservatory roof is retained and we build a self-supporting framework below which we insulate, plasterboard and plaster.
Insulated Ceilings:
Our Unique self supporting floating frame design
" Floating-Frame" (Prior to insulation installation)
Self-supporting Floating Frame design:
All other companies carrying out this work attach their fixings to your existing roof rafters (Glazing bars). This adds considerable weight to your roof.
Conservatory Roofs are designed to support the weight of the roof sheets or glass panels only and are not designed to carry the weight of an internal ceiling.
This practice also reduces free movement of air which could lead to condensation issues.
Our unique floating frame uses the rigid and strong elements of the upright conservatory window frames and self-supports due to a rigid constructed frame utilising building compliant timber.

Building Regulations:
Many companies cliam that their roofs are pre-approved and that you will automatically receive from them your certification. This is not the case !
Whilst some roofs may comply with buidling regulations, the installer must arrange for the Local Authority Building's department to inspect the installation and cerificate each individual roof for a host of compliance factors.
We handle this procedure from top to bottom.
