What conservatory roofing options are there?

There are three main roof options to consider when choosing a conservatory. Polycarbonate Sheeting Polycarbonate sheeting can be specified in a number of colours such as bronze, clear, blue etc. Polycarbonate is generally chosen as a budget alternative to glass and may not be as aesthetically pleasing as a glass roof Glass Glass is generally a bit more expensive than polycarbonate but it offers a lot more thermal efficiency as well as being more aesthetically pleasing. Glass stands up to harsher weather better than polycarbonate Glass is more thermally efficient than polycarbonate Glass roofs can retain more heat than polycarbonate roofs. Tiled There are a number of systems available which utilise insulation and metal tiles. These roofs are much more thermally efficient than glass or polycarbonate. A wide range of tiles colours are available Generally tiled roofs keep a conservatory collier in the summer and warmer in the winter. They can transform your conservatory into a room you can use all year round
