Building Regulations

Building regulations

1. Do I need building control approval for a conservatory roof replacement?

Yes, in most cases, building control approval is required when replacing a conservatory roof. This is because the replacement often changes the structure’s thermal efficiency, weight, and overall impact on the property.

2. Why is building control approval important for roof replacements?

Safety: Replacing a lightweight polycarbonate roof with a heavier tiled or solid roof adds weight to the conservatory structure. Building control ensures the existing walls and foundations can support the new roof safely.

Thermal Performance: New roofs must meet building regulations for energy efficiency, ensuring the conservatory retains heat effectively.

Compliance: Building control approval ensures the work complies with national safety and construction standards, avoiding potential issues if you sell your property in the future.

Insurance and Warranty: Approval helps validate your project, ensuring warranties and home insurance remain valid.

3. How does the building control process work?

Our team handles the building control process for you, from submitting the application to liaising with inspectors. The inspector will assess the structural integrity of your conservatory and review the proposed roof replacement plan to ensure it meets all regulations. Once the work is completed, you’ll receive a certificate of compliance.

4. What types of conservatory roofs can I choose from?

We offer a range of modern roofing options, including:

Tiled Roofs: Lightweight and highly insulated, these roofs provide excellent energy efficiency and a polished look.

Hybrid Roofs: Combining solid and glass panels, these roofs offer a balance of insulation and natural light.

Glass Roofs: Modern glass roofs feature advanced glazing for improved thermal performance and a bright, airy feel.

5. How long does a roof replacement take?

Typically, a conservatory roof replacement can be completed in 2-5 days, depending on the size and complexity of the project. We’ll provide a detailed timeline before work begins.

From the start we were given sound advice from both Gareth and Mike, all the lads on site were really pleasant, and we were so pleased we've already booked them in for a future job.

I had confidence in this company from the start of the project when Gareth came round to have a look at the work. He came up with great solutions which would allow us to have the space we required. No issue was a problem for them they just came up with solutions and carried   on with the work. A big thanks to Phil and Mitch who carried out the majority of the work and fixed the many issues along the way plus a thanks to all the other lads who were involved in the project. I would highly recommend this company to anyone thinking of having work done.

The build came in on budget and earlier than we expected!! They were always available to speak to and had excellent knowledge of building regulations and planning etc.  All the lads were really good tradesmen, polite, on time and cracked on with the job with a good sense of humour.  Special mention to Phil who was on the build from day one until the end and was really enthusiastic about the job, taking great pride in ensuring we were happy customers.  Keep them stocked up with brews and you won't go wrong!! Les and Stu.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From start to finish we couldn't have wished for a better company to build our extension. After an initial consultation Gareth took charge of the project and work began ahead of time, which was a bonus. The planning was superb, the teams arrived in different stages as the project progresses. It all went like clockwork. We had no issues, all the tradesmen on-site were both amazing workers and great company too. Totally trustworthy and honest. But it's the end result that matters, and these guys knocked it out the park. In an industry sector that can sometimes be a scary prospect to navigate there's this company that stands up as one of the best. Thanks guys for everything you did, the changes you implemented as our plans changed and the highly professional service you all provided and the craftsmanship you delivered. We love our new living space and it's down to you guys.. Couldn't recommend them enough.
