Make more of your existing conservatory
If your conservatory feels too hot in summer or too cold in winter, the roof may be part of the problem. Replacing an older glass or polycarbonate roof with an insulated tiled roof can help create a more comfortable space to use throughout the year.
At Thorntons Windows, we fit solid roofs to suitable existing conservatories across Huddersfield and the surrounding area. We’ll assess your conservatory, discuss how you use the room and recommend a roof that suits your home.
Tiled roof conservatories are 15 times more thermally efficient than older polycarbonate or clear glass roofs. Conservatories with a solid roof have better energy efficiency than glass or plastic, saving you money on your energy bills.
In many cases, yes. It depends on the condition of the conservatory and whether its existing structure can support the proposed roof. We’ll assess this before recommending a conversion.
An insulated tiled roof can help reduce heat loss in colder months and limit heat build-up in summer. The difference you notice will also depend on the rest of the conservatory, including its windows, doors and heating.
A solid roof will change the amount of natural light coming through the ceiling. If light is a priority, we can discuss whether roof windows would suit your design.
Not necessarily. If the existing structure is suitable, it may be possible to replace the roof while keeping the conservatory below. We’ll explain what your particular conservatory needs after an assessment.
Contact Thorntons Windows to arrange a free, no-obligation assessment. We’ll look at your existing conservatory, talk through the options and provide a quote for the proposed work.
Because we’re confident in the quality of our products, as standard they come complete with a 10 year guarantee.
Initiated by a very prompt visit to give a quote which was competitive with other local firms, we were persuaded by the company’s ability to tailor the product to our needs. Manufacture was within the timeframe promised and fitting, thanks to a cancellation, ahead of schedule.
Very pleased with our new Bay Sash Windows and frosted bathroom sash.
Thank you Thorntons; we will be back in touch
Had a new front door fitted by Thorntons 2 yrs ago and because they were faultless in every way, asked them to fit a new back door just recently. Everything, yet again, was faultless (initial quote process, installation and general customer service). Couldn’t recommend them highly enough.
These chaps are thoroughly professional. we had PVC windows and wooden doors fitted in December 2019.
Quick, minimal disruption, quality job and cleaned up after. special attention to final finish means these guys go the extra mile to ensure a truly fantastic job all round.
Thanks for a brilliant job.
I regularly use Thorntons Home Improvements to supply bespoke windows and doors alongside my joinery business. Always top quality work and the lads can’t do enough to help me out. Highly recommend.
Had a Solid Roof put onto my existing Conservatory, had a pleasant experience from start to finish, Lindsay and has staff were very helpful and experienced, very happy with the end product, well done team Thorntons!
