Energy Efficient
Outstanding insulation keeps your room warm in winter and cool in summer.
We specialise in Georgian conservatory roof replacement for domestic and commercial properties. At Guardian Warm Roof UK, we transform underused conservatory space into comfortable rooms that work throughout every season.
Our team installs Guardian Warm Roof systems as certified installers. We also design and fit bespoke lightweight conservatory roofs. The service covers everything from structural assessment through to completion and building control approval.
Georgian conservatories represent roughly 20 to 25 percent of conservatories in UK homes. Their square or rectangular design with symmetrical pitched roofing creates one of the most structurally balanced conservatory shapes. Many were built during the late 1990s to mid-2000s, which means a significant number now have roofs between 18 and 25 years old.
Polycarbonate roofing typically lasts 10 to 20 years before showing brittleness and discolouration. Traditional polycarbonate roofs often sit around 1.6 to 1.8 W/m²K for u value performance. Heat escapes rapidly during cold months and the space becomes unbearably hot in summer.
Conservatories in the UK can exceed 40 degrees Celsius when the sun hits directly. In winter, temperatures drop close to outside conditions without constant heating. Over 60 percent of conservatory owners report their space feels uncomfortable throughout much of the year.
Rain noise presents another major issue. The UK experiences over 150 days of rainfall annually on average. Rain hitting polycarbonate roofing can reach 50 to 70 decibels, similar to heavy traffic noise. We replace these failing systems with solid conservatory roofs that eliminate these problems.
Approximately 25 percent of heat loss in UK homes occurs through roof areas. Your current conservatory likely contributes disproportionately to your energy bills because of inadequate insulation.
Guardian is the brand leader in warm roofs and the only warm roof company to have Trustmark Scheme status. This accreditation demonstrates both the independent testing Guardian undertakes and the certified installer scheme it operates. We work as Guardian certified installers, which gives you complete confidence in quality and reliability.
Guardian Slate and Metrotile have been independently fire tested with the roof system by BRE. Testing followed EN 13501-5:2016 standards and achieved BROOF(t4) classification. This fire safety rating provides reassurance, particularly where building regulations demand high safety standards.
There are cheaper warm roofs available. Guardian represents the premium option - the Rolls Royce of solid conservatory roofs. The difference shows in performance, longevity and peace of mind from independently verified testing.
As certified installers, we receive ongoing training and support directly from Guardian to ensure every installation meets their exacting standards. For domestic and commercial properties where performance and reliability matter, Guardian is the obvious choice.
We offer glass conservatory roof solutions and hybrid systems that maintain natural light while delivering strong insulation performance. High performance glass options provide excellent thermal efficiency without compromising brightness.
Hybrid replacement conservatory roofs combine insulated solid panels with glazed sections. We design these systems to balance your requirements for natural light against thermal efficiency needs. Glazed panels can be positioned strategically to maximise daylight in key areas while solid sections provide superior insulation.
The glass roof approach suits properties where planning permission restrictions exist or where maintaining maximum brightness is essential. Commercial properties often prefer glass or hybrid solutions because they preserve the open, light-filled character that makes conservatories attractive spaces.
Your choice between solid tiled roof, glass roof or hybrid systems depends on how you plan to use the space, your budget and any planning considerations.
