Download BrochureHow much a replacement conservatory roof costs depends on the size and style of the roof, as well as whether you choose a glazed, solid or tiled replacement conservatory roof.
Your local Ultra Installer will be able to advise on the best replacement conservatory roof for your project and provide a quote.
Glass Roofs
If you are replacing a glass or polycarbonate roof with a new glass roof, you won't need Building Regulation approval as long as your conservatory is separated from your house with internal doors, is heated using a portable, plug-in heating system, has more than 75% glazing in the roof and 50% glazing in the walls and is smaller than 30m2.
Solid Roofs
If you are replacing a glass or polycarbonate roof with a solid or tiled conservatory roof, this will be subject to Building Regulation approval.
This would be classed as a ‘change in energy status’ and ‘material alteration’ triggering a Building Regulations application.
It is important to get Building Regulation approval as certification will most likely be requested by a conveyancing surveyor if you should decide to sell your house. Not having a completion certificate could potentially hold up the sale, resulting in a retrospective application being submitted which may or may not be accepted.
Whether you need planning permission to replace your conservatory roof depends firstly on what type of roof you are replacing it with. If you are replacing with a glazed roof it is unlikely that you will need planning permission but your Ultraframe installer will be able to confirm this.
If you are replacing with a solid or tiled roof you may need planning permission. You should speak to the planning officer at your local council who will be able to confirm this for you.
No, you don't need an architect to replace a conservatory roof. Your local Ultraframe conservatory installer will be able to take care of every step of the replacement conservatory roof process for you.
Whether you are replacing your conservatory roof with a glazed, solid or tiled roof, Ultraframe replacement conservatory roofs are among the best on the market.
This is because every single roof is designed to the postcode of the location where it will be installed for total structural integrity, as well as providing market leading thermal performance and design options.
To replace your glass conservatory roof contact your local Ultraframe installer who will be able to explain the options to you. Once you have decided on the replacement roof, your installer will remove the existing conservatory roof and the windows and doors if needed and replace with your new conservatory roof.
There are several ways to make your conservatory roof warmer but the most important thing is not to use a conservatory insulations company as this process is detrimental to the performance and structural integrity of your conservatory.
Ways that you can safely make your conservatory warmer include retro-fitting an Ultraframe insulated pelmet or replacing your roof with a solid or tiled conservatory roof such as Livinroof or Ultraroof.
Yes you can have windows in a solid conservatory roof. These can either be small Velux windows or with Ultraroof and Livinroof solid conservatory roofs, you can choose to have full length roof windows to flood your room with natural light.
Replacing a conservatory roof can usually be done within a matter of days. If you are replacing your conservatory roof with a solid or tiled roof, you will then need to allow for extra time for the interior to be plasterboarded and skimmed.
You don't always need to replace the windows and/or doors when you replace a conservatory roof. Your installer will assess their strength and advise whether they need to be replaced or upgraded to support the weight of your new conservatory roof.
As a guide, single-storey rear extensions must not extend beyond the rear wall of the original house by more than eight metres if your home is detached, or more than six metres for any other style of house.
Extensions of more than one storey must not extend beyond the rear wall of the original house by more than three metres. How far you can extend your house without Planning Permission comes down to the various rules within Permitted Development.
These rules look at various factors such as how close you are to your neighbour's home and the type of home you live in. Your local installer or Building Control officer will be able to advise on how far you can extend your home after visiting your home and looking at these factors, as well as the others which make up the Permitted Development rules.
