Best Conservatory Roofs for Your Home

Adding a conservatory to your home is a brilliant way to create extra living space, enjoy more natural light and even increase your property’s value. But to get the most out of your conservatory, it’s important to choose the right roof type.
The roof you pick will have a big impact on how comfortable and practical your conservatory is throughout the year. It affects everything from temperature control and natural light to energy efficiency and soundproofing. So, it’s worth spending a bit of time considering your options before you make a decision.
The three most popular conservatory roof options are glass, polycarbonate and tiled roofs. While Majestic Designs specialises in high-quality glass conservatory roofs, it’s helpful to know the pros and cons of each type to choose what suits your home best.
The Three Main Types of Conservatory Roofs
Glass Conservatory Roofs
Glass conservatory roofs are the most popular choice for homeowners who want to enjoy a light, airy space that provides a beautiful view of the garden. They also offer excellent sound insulation, so you can enjoy your conservatory even when it’s raining.
At Majestic Designs, we manufacture double-glazed conservatory roofs with reinforced uPVC frames designed to support large glass panels. Our high-performance glazing is rated A+14 for energy efficiency, using argon gas-filled sealed units to regulate temperature and keep your conservatory comfortable all year round.
Polycarbonate Conservatory Roofs
Polycarbonate roofs, made from plastic sheets, are generally less expensive than glass or tiled options and are relatively easy to install. However, there are some significant downsides to consider.
However, polycarbonate roofs tend to offer poor insulation, making conservatories too hot in the summer and too cold in the winter. They’re also much noisier during heavy rain and hail, which can be distracting if you’re trying to relax, work or entertain in your conservatory.
Tiled Conservatory Roofs
Tiled conservatory roofs are becoming increasingly popular for those who want to use their conservatory as a more permanent living area, like a dining room, office or lounge. Unlike glass or polycarbonate roofs, a tiled roof can be plastered and decorated inside to match the rest of your home.
Because of their solid structure, they’re also very effective at reducing noise from heavy rain or outside traffic. However, tiled roofs do block out a lot of natural light, so if you’re hoping for a bright, sun-filled conservatory, a glass roof might be a better choice.
