My parents have and are super happy with the results, warmer in winter and cooler in summer, much quieter in the rain and wind.

I've been wondering about this too. Do you know roughy what it costs?

[Hodge]

My parents cost about 7 grand. It's a really good job.

If you take the clear roof off and change it to a solid roof is it still a conservatory ?

nope, it becomes an extension once one of these roofs is fitted, if I've read the info on them correctly!

What sort of roof you got on your conservatory?

Polycarbonate or glass?

Was this question aimed at me?

 

From what I've read it's nothing to do with what sort of roof is on the conservatory. The solid roofs can weigh three times that of poly roofs.

 

It's more about the integrity of the walls and footings also heat loss through SAP (I got lost reading this bit). I belive some councils also want soil tests doing.

 

Or have I got it all wrong again?

Dont think your far off the mark there Eggs

It depends on the solid roof system you are going to fit, my parents is made from an alluminium frame with insulated boards and a resin tile type thing, it's from a company that specialist in these roofs.
