A lot of conservatories start out as a good idea. Then a few years pass and the room does not get used as much as expected. Too hot when the sun is out. Too cold in winter. Loud when it rains. Sometimes it becomes a place for laundry, boxes or furniture that does not fit anywhere else.
Changing the roof can make a big difference.
Homeefe works with homeowners in Rushden and nearby towns who are looking at solid conservatory roofs, warm roofs and replacement conservatory roofs. Our showroom is in Rushden, Northamptonshire, so you can come in and talk through the options before making a decision.
A solid roof is often fitted to replace an older glass or polycarbonate roof. The aim is to make the room feel more like part of the house and less like a separate conservatory that only works in certain weather.
We usually cover homes within around 80 km of Rushden, including Wellingborough, Kettering, Corby, Northampton, Bedford, Milton Keynes and Peterborough.
Most people do not wake up one day and decide they need a new conservatory roof for no reason. There is usually something annoying them.
It might be glare from the roof. It might be heat in summer. It might be draughts, noise, leaks or the room feeling cold even when the heating is on. Older polycarbonate roofs can also start to look dated, especially if the rest of the house has been improved.
A solid conservatory roof can help with comfort, insulation and appearance. It can also make the space easier to use as a dining room, sitting room, playroom, office or small garden room.
The existing conservatory still needs to be suitable. Frame, walls, roof shape and overall condition all need checking before the old roof is replaced.
People use different names for this kind of work. Some call it a solid roof. Some ask for a warm roof. Others search for a tiled conservatory roof or conservatory roof replacement.
In simple terms, it usually means replacing a lightweight roof with something better insulated and more solid.
The roof finish can be chosen to suit the house. Some homeowners want the new roof to blend in as much as possible. Others want the conservatory to look more like a proper extension from the outside.
There are practical choices too: roof windows, lighting, plastering, guttering, insulation and internal finish. These details affect how the room feels once the work is finished.
Before replacing a conservatory roof, a few things should be looked at properly:
This is not the sort of job that should be chosen only from a photo. Two conservatories can look similar but need very different work.

You can visit our showroom in Rushden or contact Homeefe online. Tell us what type of conservatory you have, what the current roof is made from and what you would like the room to become.
Photos of the inside and outside are useful at the first stage.
In many cases, yes. The existing conservatory needs to be checked first to make sure the frame, walls and base are suitable.

The terms are often used together. A warm roof is usually an insulated solid roof system fitted to make the conservatory more comfortable.
A solid roof can help improve insulation, but the windows, doors, walls and heating also affect how warm the room feels.
