5 benefits of upgrading your conservatory roof in time for winter

The ideal way to futureproof your extension for the colder months

If you’re a homeowner craving just that little bit more from your home’s existing conservatory or orangery in preparation for the upcoming winter period, it always bodes well to consider a new replacement conservatory roof! Maybe your current roof is suffering from letting in pesky draughts or cold spots or perhaps it’s just suffering from expected wear and tear, let Emerald treat you to an early gift just before xmas!

Still need convincing? Here are our top 5 benefits of upgrading your conservatory roof in time for winter:

1. Effective acoustic insulation

One of the main drawbacks of an outdated polycarbonate conservatory roof in particular is the loud noise create as a result of any harsh rainfall. When hitting the plastic material, the sound is amplified to such a degree that it can easily cause discomfort or annoyance in a place that is otherwise meant to be relaxing!

Whether you opt for a tiled or glass replacement roof for your existing conservatory, they both offer multiple layers of protection to deliver effective defence against noise the rough weather such as snow and rain can create. This results in very impressive acoustic insulation, meaning you’ll be left to enjoy the extra living space in the upmost ambience.

2. Increased natural light entry (or not!)

One of the many benefits a glazed or glass replacement roof has to offer is its ability to completely make the most of the natural sunlight that hits your conservatory, penetrating through the transparent windows to create a lighter and brighter atmosphere. They also balance this light entry to lessen the potential harm of any unwanted UV rays.

For those wanting to create an additional sense of privacy, a new tiled roof can act as just the trick whilst still allowing natural light to enter from the surrounding windows and doors! It’s the best of both worlds

3. Better energy efficiency and heat retention

Allowing you to make maximum use of the space like never before, a brand new replacement conservatory roof can help better trap any natural heat that is generated in the space to keep it warmer for longer – especially helpful in preparation for the winter months. If you’re suffering from unwanted breezes or draughts, the roof is usual the first culprit at the heat of the problem.

Of course because warmth will be better kept within your conservatory with either style of replacement roof you’ll be less inclined to turn on the central heating as you would normally. Enjoy better warmth whilst also saving money on your home’s energy bills instantly!

4. A stylish improvement in either glass or tiles

If you’d like to create a picturesque-looking conservatory extension during the winter months, any present snow will look beautiful resting on top of either a tiled or glass replacement roof. Polycarbonate roofs were great for when they were first installed from the 1980’s onwards, but if you truly want to make your conservatory feel vibrant and fresh, upgrade to a more visually appealing solution.
