Conservatory Roofs
in Cumbernauld,
for weather that gets here first.

Every district in G67 and G68, which means Abronhill, Condorrat, Kildrum, Seafar, Carbrain, Greenfaulds, Ravenswood, Smithstone, Westfield, Eastfield, Balloch, Craigmarloch, Carrickstone, Westerwood, Dullatur, Blackwood, Cumbernauld Village and Luggiebank. Castlecary, Croy, Kilsyth, Moodiesburn, Mollinsburn and Banknock are on the same round, and none of them carries a call-out fee.

The usual range is £6,500 to £14,000 fitted, which takes in removing the existing roof, any strengthening required, the new system, a plasterboard ceiling, LED lighting and decoration. A wide lean-to or a large Edwardian can pass £18,000. Nothing is charged for the survey and the quote is free to keep, with no obligation. Various deposit options are available.

It can. Insulation is what deals with both problems at once: it stops the sun loading heat into the room through the summer and stops the warmth escaping through the winter, so the room holds a steadier temperature all year. A solid insulated roof reaches a U-value below 0.18 W/m²K, which is the standard a modern extension roof is built to. Add a radiator and the room becomes somewhere you sit in January.

It does. What you are hearing now is rain hitting thin polycarbonate with nothing behind it. A tiled or solid roof is built in layers, insulation and then a plasterboard ceiling, and the sound is absorbed on the way through instead of being amplified. Given how much rain this ridge catches, it is the change most households notice first.

Not in most cases, because the light is still coming in through the glazed walls and the doors. Where a conservatory is the only daylight reaching a kitchen or a dining room behind it, we would suggest a hybrid roof with a lantern or a run of glazed panels set into the solid deck, or a full glass roof in solar-control glass. The surveyor will stand in the room at different times of day and tell you what to expect.

A warrant is normally required in Scotland when a glazed conservatory roof becomes a solid one, and you do not have to deal with it. We prepare the application, lodge it with North Lanarkshire Council and hand you the completion certificate at the end. Planning permission is seldom needed for a like-for-like glazed replacement.

Very often, yes. Our tiled and solid roofs are made deliberately light so that an existing frame and base can carry them, and about nine in ten conservatories need no structural work whatsoever. The surveyor checks the loading and the condition of the base at the visit. If a post or a beam needs strengthening, you are told on the day and the cost is in the quote, and if the structure is not suitable at all we will say so rather than press on.

Allow 3 to 7 working days on site for most conservatories. Counting back from that, the gap between accepting the quote and the installers arriving is usually 4 to 6 weeks, because the roof is made to your measurements. Whatever the weather does overnight, the room is closed up and watertight before the team leaves.

Yes. Our Glasgow showroom sits inside Dobbies Garden Centre at Braehead, 75 Kings Inch Drive, Renfrew, G51 4FB, open 10am to 5pm every day with parking and a café, and our Kilmarnock showroom at Block 5, Unit 1, Glencairn Industrial Estate, KA1 4AZ opens Monday to Saturday, with Sunday by appointment. The surveyor also carries tile, slate-effect and render samples, which is the better test, because a finish has to be judged next to your own walls.

All workmanship is guaranteed, covering how the roof system, the insulation, the plasterboard ceiling and the electrical work have been installed. Your surveyor will go over what that means in practice while they are with you.
