Panelled Conservatory Roofs

Standard polycarbonate roof sheets have a finite life expectancy, somewhere between 10 and 15 years, so when the time comes to improve you now have a few options. 

You could replace like for like but with the increasing desire to save energy at the same time as extending the annual use of the conservatory, upgrading the roof by installing solid insulated conservatory roof panels is a great solution.

The installation of panels not only reduces heat loss it also cuts down on solar gain, helping to break the cycle of having a conservatory that is too hot in the summer and too cold in the winter.

Clear glazing can also be introduced to provide a lighter, more contemporary look.

Panels are lightweight, extremely strong and thermally-efficient.

Depending on the roof panel thickness it is possible to reduce heat loss through the roof by between 50 and 70%

Solar gain due to direct sunlight is also vastly reduced.

Thermo Panels Custom Colours

We also offer a range of coloured Renolit films in addition to the standard white finish.

Replacing old Ultralite 500 roofs

Over the years many properties, mainly bungalows, had Ultralite 500 panels installed to provide a strong roof at very low pitches.
They were perfect for this purpose but extremely inefficient at insulating the space beneath.
The other disadvantage is that these panels do not have a conventional glazing bar making it impossible to install panels.

One of the solutions to overcome this problem is by replacing the whole roof with treated wooden joists and noggins before securing our panels in conjunction with an insulted T&G ceiling.

This dual fit provides excellent insulation and can normally be fitted in a couple of days.

garden room".

What are the other options?..

Replace or Convert the whole roof.

These are more expensive than panels and may require Building Regulations approval prior to commencement of work.

Nevertheless, we are happy to give advice and regularly work with a couple of specialist firms if this is an option you’d like to consider.

From lightweight tiled to flat replacement roofs, there’s normally a solution available for most people and all installations are covered by 10-year warranties.

Just read John and Diane’s feedback. They first enquired about panels for their conservatory in Horley, but it transpired that a replacement roof  would suit them better so we were able to advise and organise the installation by one of our “partner” companies.

Ceiling Only.

Installing a ceiling only under your existing glazed roof is great if your current roof is good condition and this is a service we offer as a stand alone product or fitted in combination with our panels to provide maximum insulation.
