How Much Heat Is Lost Through a Conservatory Roof?

Conservatories can greatly improve family life by providing a space for casual dining, entertaining guests, or enjoying the outdoors from home. However, in the UK, keeping a conservatory throughout the year can be challenging, especially in the colder months.

One of the biggest issues is heat loss, with the roof being the primary source of heat escaping.

Heat can escape through many areas in a conservatory, such as walls, floors, doors, and windows. Still, the roof is the largest contributor to heat loss in most traditional conservatories. Glass and polycarbonate roofs, commonly used in conservatories, are inefficient insulators, making the conservatory cold and inefficient.

The good news is that upgrading your conservatory roof insulation is an effective and cost-efficient solution. With proper insulation, you can regulate the temperature in your conservatory all year round, turning it into a more comfortable space. Discover how Nu-Look Conservatory Roof Solutions can help transform your conservatory and make it a comfortable, year-round space for your family.

Replace Your Conservatory Roof

One of the best ways to make your conservatory more energy-efficient is by upgrading your old roof. If you have a polycarbonate or glass roof, replacing it with a solid, energy-efficient roof can be an affordable and effective way to keep your conservatory comfortable. This upgrade is much less expensive than building an entirely new conservatory.

Modern roof replacements use advanced materials and technology to provide better insulation, which helps to keep heat inside during the winter and stay cooler during the summer. With energy prices rising in the UK, having a solid roof can make a big difference in your heating bills while making your conservatory a space you can use all year round.

Replacing your old roof is cost-effective and a smart investment that can transform your existing conservatory into a more comfortable and practical space for your family.

  A very efficient first rate service. The team stripped off the old polycarbonate roof, custom made a new framework, insulated it and replaced  the roof with 'tiles'. A day or two later a chap plastered the new ceiling. We were so impressed with the whole operation and how streamlined it was, but even more so with the finished room. We have achieved exactly what we wanted and we love it!

  From the moment the representative came and quoted me a price and the work involved I was pleasantly surprised at the price and agreed instantly. On the fitting day the two chaps arrived on time and after discussing plans with me they got straight to work. Adam(Lukasz) and Sol(Smart)worked together as a team and the roof appeared before our eyes in hours. Finally the finish they achieved and the care taken was of a high standard. Lastly although I said I would clear up they insisted and left the garden as they found it. Many thanks to all involved

  STUNNING TRANSFORMATION. Had a large P shape conservatory with a Poly sheeted panel roof which were coming to the end of their life, for years had been having companies arrive and push for a sale, in early May a new "Checkatrade" leaflet arrived and Nu-Look name took my eye. Salesman Gavyn came with samples to show construction, liked what we heard so went with Nu Look, next step Matt the surveyor approved the build agreeing it could go a head. Week of build weather looked horrendous but it held off, Gareth and Archie arrived and what professionals  they were, turned up on time and made sure all materials were on hand to complete the work. They needed to deconstruct and construct framework  to allow the electrical work by "Dixie" and plastering by Brett and Darren to go a head, watching Gareth cut those angled sections more so for the valley was outstanding, such a craftsman and Archie was kept on his toes. Same with Brett and Darren outstanding plaster work and gave great advice when to paint ceiling due to hot weather, Dixie finished LED lighting. We also went for building control which Nu -Look deal with via Stroma. Must not forget Emily in the office, any issues she was on it. We opted for the £100 deposit on agreement and the Novuna finance route, which we paid off soon after with an additional cost of £29 to do so, great finance company, web site and communications excellent. We had a conservatory and now have a garden room and already in these very hot conditions we feel a difference much more comfortable, so if you are thinking about replacing those poly sheets give NU-Look a call, glad we did. Thankyou all from Roger and Sandra.

  We recently had a new tiled conservatory roof fitted by Nu-Look and we couldn’t be happier with the result. From start to finish all the staff were friendly and helpful. The salesmen was not pushy, he gave me a honest opinion on what needed doing and didn’t try to oversell. I would highly recommend Nu-Look to anyone that is looking to upgrade there conservatory roof to a tiled one. It’s made such a difference especially that we have been able to use it during this heat wave.

  Nu-look have done a fantastic job of replacing my old poly carbonate roof with a solid roof. I can't recommend them highly enough, from the initial consultation with Gavyn, to the surveyor, and all of the tradesmen involved.

  Excellent company. This is a great company wth a great product. I wanted to insulate my conservatory roof. I had several companies around to quote for the work. Nu-Look were the only company where the representative took time to listen to what my problem was and discuss a proposed solution. All the others simply tried to press a product on me without listening to the customer. Additionally all the other companies offered their “solution” at ridiculously high prices. If you want a builder who listens to his clients problem and proposes a solution that meets the client’s needs not theirs then use Nu-Look for unparalleled quality and value for money. Following my acceptance of the quote I was visited by a very professional surveyor who was like every other person associated with the company being polite and keen to answer any questions I had. When the tradesmen arrived they were bang on time. They undertook the installation quickly and to a high standard. They were professional and polite throughout. I would recommend Nu-Look without hesitation. Jeremy M - Milton Keynes
