Jenny's light-filled conservatory transformation

Jenny loved the light and space her Edwardian conservatory offered, but its old glass roof made it difficult to enjoy throughout the year. With a new insulated tiled roof, three Velux roof windows and a beautifully plastered interior, we helped transform it into a room she could make much more use of.

What they wanted to achieve

Jenny's 28m² Edwardian conservatory was a lovely space, but its glass roof meant it was too hot in summer and too cold in winter.

She wanted to replace the existing roof with something better insulated, but had one big concern: losing the natural light that made the room so appealing in the first place.

Having seen a similar conservatory transformation we'd completed, Jenny had a clear idea of the finish she wanted. The challenge was finding a way to improve the comfort of the room without sacrificing its bright, airy feel.

Creating the right solution

The key was finding the right balance between insulation and natural light.

We installed a lightweight insulated tiled roof, incorporating three Velux roof windows to allow daylight to continue filling the conservatory.

The exterior was finished with Tapco tiles, while inside, a smooth plastered ceiling and integrated spotlights gave the room a more contemporary feel.

The entire roof transformation was completed in just five working days.

The finished space

Jenny's conservatory has been given a completely new lease of life.

The new insulated roof helps create a more comfortable environment throughout the seasons, while the three Velux windows preserve the natural light she was so keen to keep.

With its beautifully finished ceiling and integrated lighting, the conservatory now feels much more like a natural part of the home, without losing the bright, open character Jenny loved.
