“I wanted to replace our old polycarbonate conservatory roof with a solid roof. Following advice and suggestions from Christian, I eventually went for a conservatory replacement, built on an existing half wall, with a solid insulated roof, plastered inside with integral lights. I am so glad I did. The quality is second to none and the professionalism of all the staff, from the office to the installation team, is first class.”

Upgrading to a solid conservatory roof can make your space more comfortable and usable. But it also raises questions around cost, permissions, and building rules. Here, we answer five of the most common queries homeowners in Gloucestershire ask when considering a solid roof replacement.
Get a Free QuoteYes, a solid roof can significantly improve how you use your conservatory. It helps regulate temperature throughout the year—keeping it warmer in winter and cooler in summer. It also reduces noise from rain, improves energy efficiency, and makes the room feel more like a permanent part of the house.
In most cases, you won’t need planning permission if you're only replacing the existing roof. However, if your conservatory is part of a listed building or exceeds permitted development limits, permission may be needed. You should always check with your local authority before starting any work.
The best solid roof is one that’s lightweight, well-insulated, and designed for your existing structure. Albany Windows installs Icotherm solid roofs, which are made from insulated timber frames and finished with tiles or slates. They meet UK building regulations and offer excellent thermal performance and long-term durability.
The cheapest option is usually a polycarbonate roof, but this comes with drawbacks—poor insulation, noise, and short lifespan. If you're looking for long-term value, a solid roof is more cost-effective over time due to its durability, energy savings, and improved year-round comfort.
Yes. You must comply with Building Regulations when replacing a conservatory roof with a solid one. Conservatories with 75% translucent roofing and 50% glazed walls are usually exempt—but this exemption does not apply to solid roofs. Albany Windows installs Icotherm solid roofs that meet all current UK regulations.
