Warm roof on conservatory

[Indecisivelurcher]

Have been quoted £7k to get a warm roof on existing conservatory plus replace the flat roof on existing brick built extension and include a skylight. Or £33k to replace conservatory with brick (push out existing brick built room on conservatory footprint). Also wildcard option to go up instead, so put a floor above the brick extension, £27k. So what do I need to know about these warm roofs?!

I know it's dull! But if anyone has one or would be really useful to hear.

I just need one person with a warm roof to read my thread 😁

I haven't got one myself but my mum has, and is very pleased with it. Warmer in winter and cooler in summer.

Not much help because I don't have personal experience but at least it stops you talking to yourself.

I don’t know what a warm roof is but we’re getting this done, a friend had it done in her old house and was so impressed she’s getting it done again in her new house.

*only useful info if you’re considering a warm roof to make it warmer/cooler.

@Bamaluz thank goodness

I mean that sort of thing @IheartHarryStyles

Ah well there you go, I’m hoping it doesn’t cost 7k though! Friends cost under 2k including lights to get done.

£7k is for 2 roofs basically, brick extension roof and conservatory roof.

I have a warm roof and it is great - really helped make the conservatory feel fresh and a useable space all year. Cost depends where you live. All the quotes I had were around £7-£10k but we have a large conservatory

Just had this done so hopefully this post is helpful to anyone thinking if doing this
Does it make adjacent room darker?- yes but it is bearable. Depends how much you were getting in before. Warmer?- definitely but still required heating just like any room in the house on a cold day. Expensive? Yes considering materials used. Insulating boards, plywood and batons £800, lightweight steel tiles, £800, insulated plasterboard £500, electric fittings £200, sundries £200. So ballpark approx £2,500. Total cost for job was £8,500. (It was a conversion therefore no costs for steel frame). This would add another £2k. Based in this you get an idea of the labour/overheads/ profit,/ VAT added
