Replacing the roof of your conservatory is a worthwhile project, and not only if your roof has become damaged over time or was recently impacted by bad weather. 

Replacing the roof on your conservatory can turn it into a room you can use all year round, keeping it warm in the winter, and cool in the summer by improving its thermal efficiency. This can also help you reduce your carbon footprint and lower your annual energy bills. 

Not to mention that you could completely change the look of your conservatory by getting rid of its old roof, replacing it with a beautiful new design. You could increase the natural light coming into your home by adding more velux windows, or other personalised features such as coloured tiles or a new roof style, all of which grant you a lot of creative license. 

A new conservatory roof can also increase the value of your home, turning your conservatory into a year-round habitable space which is very attractive to prospective buyers. You’re also more likely to enjoy your conservatory if it looks visually appealing and stays the right temperature regardless of the season.

How much you end up spending on your conservatory roof replacement will depend largely on the type of roof you want, the materials you choose, and where you live in the UK, with cost of labour rising in London and the South East, by as much as 20% more on average. 

This guide will always clarify where prices include cost of labour and materials, and where they refer to them separately. The average cost of a conservatory roof replacement is of between £6,000 and £20,000, depending on what type of conservatory you have, and what materials you want your new roof built from. 

The most popular kinds of conservatories found in the UK are lean-to, Victorian, Edwardian, and gable-end conservatories.

If you’re looking to save money on your conservatory renovation, replacing the roof rather than the whole structure will cost less, and can often achieve very effective energy saving features, since most heat escapes from the roof. 

How much you spend will depend on a large range of factors, from materials and conservatory roof design to the size of the conservatory, and how many additional features you want installed, both for practical and aesthetic purposes. 

We recommend you opt for energy efficient materials and insulation, as this will save you money in the long run when it comes to heating your conservatory during the winter.
