When conservatories for the domestic market first arrived in the UK during the 1970s, the idea was to create an extension that was almost all glass, allowing maximum light to flood into it. But as homeowners quickly found out, the conservatory was also regularly flooded with cold air in the winter and boiling heat in the summer.
Advances in double glazing have largely cured this problem and today’s conservatory glass roofs are far more thermally efficient than they’ve ever been. However, for maximum comfort and energy savings, many people are now changing to tiled conservatory roofs.
Why might this be the case, given that a solid roof invariably restricts the amount of natural light coming through the roof structure? Well, for a start it gives a sense of permanence to the conservatory, taking it from a seasonal indulgence to a building suitable for use all year round. A tiled roof allows you to control the temperature in your conservatory while also reducing glare from the sun, resulting in a comfortable living space regardless of the weather.
Our tiled conservatory roof options will breathe new life into your existing conservatory space, whatever its age, shape or style. Our tiled roof conservatory systems always look great, not least because they’re also very customisable, enabling you to create something special that suits your personal tastes and the overall look and feel of your home. So let’s have a look at seven of the benefits of choosing a solid roof conservatory, allowing you to enjoy your extra living space in a whole new way.
Better air flow
The problems of thermal regulation are well known to conservatory owners who’ve shivered in the winter and sweltered in the summer. When we install one of our Equinox roof systems we separate the high-strength aluminium rafters from the timber deck, allowing air to circulate more freely. Better air flow using the latest technology helps to prevent condensation forming during the winter months while allowing a fresher feel in the summer.
Natural light options
Earlier we mentioned the reduction in available light as a result of having a solid roof fitted. That is certainly true, but it’s by no means the end of the story. If you want more light, why not choose a roof window to be installed within the structure? These can deliver up to 850 mm of visible natural light, which means that even the darkest winter days are brightened up by the positive and uplifting effect of light flooding your space.
Outstanding thermal performance
Equinox tiled replacement roofs are among the very best in the marketplace. Why? Because the roof’s lightweight polymer tiles are made from 75 per cent recycled materials and the roof is constructed on a timber deck with aluminium rafters, making it exceptionally strong. Insulated plasterboard is fitted to the interior, helping to achieve U-values (the standard measure of thermal efficiency) as low as 0.15 – roughly 10 times more efficient than an A-rated window. By any standards, that is incredible performance.
Experienced installers
No-one relishes the process of going through building work. Our experience means that we keep the disruption to a minimum. Our usual working time is around two days, although we won’t ever do ‘a rush job’. We will consult with you, the client, at every stage of the process, from initial conversations about what you’d like to a site visit and a detailed quotation. After you’ve paid a deposit we will check the site again to make sure all measurements are accurate before work begins. This way, we know that you are happy at every point along the journey to your new or replacement roof.
Stylistic flexibility
We think it’s important that our customers can access the choices they deserve, which is why our replacement roofs will suit any style of conservatory including Victorian, Edwardian, gable-ended, lean-to or P-shaped. Our roofs come in 16 different colours to suit almost any type of existing property. As for tiles, our Envirotile range is available in four options based on traditional tile styles, plus our Slateskin tiles offer a slate-effect finish.
Added value
Adding a quality replacement Equinox roof to your existing conservatory will undoubtedly increase the value of your home. Because conservatories, orangeries and other extensions can be used all year round, their value as home offices, TV rooms, play areas, home gyms and just places to chill out have become significant. If and when you come to sell your home, you’ll almost certainly realise the value of your roof investment.
Sound and vision
A tiled replacement roof reduces noise from rail, hailstones and other sources of noise, resulting in an all-round better living experience. Your roof will also visually more impressive, collecting far less visible dirt than a glass or a polycarbonate roof.
