What Does Your Ideal Conservatory Look Like?

Your Conservatory Roof Needs to Match the Character of Your Home

A long time ago, a house with an extension that featured a conservatory roof was not quite the norm. As a result, it stood out and became a much-coveted purchase for would-be buyers looking to upscale to a newer property and ‘keep up with the Joneses.’ 

Although the polycarbonate design of conservatory roof that was popular two decades ago can still be seen in most suburban areas, this system has since been superseded by new technology that is visually, practically and performatively superior.

If improperly maintained, a polycarbonate conservatory roof can begin to look jaded and perform poorly. This makes the structure in question less thermally efficient and can subtract market value from the home that it is meant to benefitting.

An old or poorly-performing conservatory roof doesn’t necessarily mean you have to tear your dwelling down and start again. It’s quite possible to retain the existing frames and add a replacement conservatory roof that will transform your space.

Ultraframe can offer its customers a choice of products that are compatible with all designs of conservatory roof. In this article, we’ll explore the benefits of these roof systems, so you can make an informed decision about which one suits your needs.


Find A Conservatory Roof That’s Perfect for Your Home

Every home is different. That’s why our products have been designed to cater to the varying needs of our customers. Keep reading to find out more about the benefits of choosing an industry-leading replacement conservatory roof from Ultraframe.

Living Space, Living Room, Livinroof

Livinroof won’t force you to comprise by making you choose between a tiled or glazed conservatory roof. The intrinsically flexible design of this system will instead empower you to replace aluminium panels with glazed ones that conform to any shape or configuration. With Livinroof you can play at being a director by choosing where you want the light to fall, resulting in a room that is light and bright, and which feels fully connected to the rest of your home.

If you want to create a sense of space, you’ll be able to ask your approved Ultra Installer to build a vaulted ceiling. On the other hand, if you want to create a space that’s cosy, you can opt for a suspended design that aligns with the ceiling in the adjoining room. Either way, your conservatory roof will make your space fully functional once again.

The Livinroof also allows you to:

  • Add cornicing to hide your guttering and create an external effect that’s pleasing to the eye;
  • Include an internal pelmet area, to which can easily be added speakers or spotlights.

Ultraroof: A Modern and High-Performing Conservatory Roof

Enjoy all the usual benefits of a tiled conservatory roof, but without having to sacrifice on light, by choosing our ever-popular Ultraroof. You’ll be able to request the insertion of glass panels or Velux windows into your design to create a room that feels always connected to the outside and the rest of your home.

The Ultraroof has been efficiently designed to maximise heat retention. Your conservatory will be the perfect temperature all year round and will reward you with lower heating bills and a reduced carbon footprint. This conservatory roof system also complies with current building regulations for your convenience.

You can customise the Ultraroof by adding:

  • Classic or modern capping to the ridge and hips of your new conservatory roof;
  • Choosing white, black, rosewood or oak fascia boards to match your frames;
  • High-performing double glazing that will dramatically reduce glare and heat.


Have You Thought About a Replacement Glass Conservatory Roof?

As an alternative to Livinroof and Ultraroof, we can offer a glass conservatory roof. This system will reward you with an enviable U-value that’s as low as 1.0 (if you opt for double glazing) and block out as much as 83% of the sun’s rays –  rewarding you with a room that’s the perfect temperature all year round.

This design of replacement conservatory roof is also self-cleaning – a feat it pulls off thanks to technology that burns off unwanted debris and washes it away with the rainwater. Negligible maintenance is needed with this high-performing system, which means you’ll have more free time on your hands.
