Questions people ask
Do I need planning permission for a solid conservatory roof?
Usually not, but a solid roof normally needs building regulations approval. Your installer should arrange it.
Will it make my conservatory warmer?
Yes. An insulated solid roof holds heat much better than polycarbonate or older glass, and keeps it cooler in summer.
How long does it take?
Most solid roof replacements take 2 to 5 days.
