Have you ever been standing in your conservatory and thought, “I wish we could use this room more?” Conservatories can be freezing cold in the winter and boiling hot in the summer so it is very difficult to use the room all year round. The reason for this is because typical conservatories are not insulated properly, this is why tiled conservatory roofs are becoming a popular choice for UK homeowners.
At Tiled Conservatory Roofs Norwich, we specialise in turning unused conservatories into rooms you can start to use again and all year round. In addition to this a tiled roof upgrade improves the look of your home and increases its value. Continue reading to find out more about the benefits of a tiled conservatory warm roof and how choosing the right company for installation makes a difference.
Why Consider a Tiled Conservatory Roof?
Conservatories let in a lot of light and are appealing at the right time of year, this is what the initial appeal was when people started having them installed. Unfortunately traditional glass or plastic roofing came with its downsides, freezing cold in the winter, scorching hot in the summer and rattling noise when it is raining. Tiled conservatory roofs are designed to eliminate all these issues and bring the room back to life.
The Benefits You’ll Notice Right Away
- Better insulation for every season: Tiled warm roofs contain insulation boards that keep the room snug in the winter and cool in the summer. No more drafts and cold feet or having to avoid the conservatory on hot afternoons.
- Quieter moments: British weather can be pretty dramatic. If you’re tired of rain drumming on the roof or outside noise ruining a peaceful cuppa, you’ll love how much quieter a tiled roof is.
- Looks and value: Instead of a clear divide between house and extension, a tiled roof blends your conservatory into your home’s design. Matching tiles and neat finishes give your property a smart, unified look.
- Designed to last: British weather is unpredictable. Tiled conservatory roofs built with lightweight slates or composites last for years—often with warranties over two decades.
- A year-round space: Imagine using your conservatory as a dining room, hobby area, or comfy study throughout the seasons instead of it being “out of bounds” half the year.
Doesn’t it make sense to get the maximum use and enjoyment from space you already own?
Immediate Savings and Comfort
Homeowners tell us they notice the reduction on energy bills fast. It’s not just about comfort—better insulation means the heating isn’t blasting as much in winter and the fan won’t be fighting the midday sun in summer. In fact, a conservatory with a decent tiled roof and proper insulation is estimated to cut overall home energy usage by about 10%.
Important Points to Weigh Up
A tiled conservatory roof is a solid investment and, naturally, you’ll want to think it through:
- Is your current structure strong enough?
Some older conservatories need a bit of extra support to handle the new roof. Our team will check the frame and recommend reinforcements if needed, so you don’t get any nasty surprises.
- What about permissions and planning?
Most upgrades don’t need planning permission, but listed buildings or big visual changes might. We know the ins and outs of Norwich and Norfolk rules and always help clients get it right.
- Looking at long-term savings?
Depending on the size of your conservatory and the style you choose prices vary from £4,000 to £10,000, but you can save money from lower energy bills, less cleaning and gaining a room like having a new extension built.
- Do you want to keep light into the conservatory or a certain tile finish?
Roof skylights can be added to keep the light into the room, you can also choose from a selection of tiles to match your home or create something different.
