We had our conservatory roof done at the end of March 2026 and wanted to give it some use before posting a review.The team that worked on the roof were brilliant, they worked so hard on it every day that they were here, even on the Wednesday of that week when we had 4 seasons of wether in 1 day - rain, hail, sleet, snow and strong winds gusting at nearly 50mph!They were troopers and worked as much through it as they could until it got too dangerous for them to work anymore, when thy let me know they were leaving and the reasons why, I agreed with them that they should get off. All the cups of tea I made them couldn’t warm them up that day!They came back early the next couple of days to ensure they completed the work on time, which they did!Everyone else who came to work on it in the week were brilliant too, including the plasterers and the electrician, everything was explained what was going to happen.No question was too daft and they were happy to answer any queries and they also kept me updated throughout the whole job so I knew what to expect.Now this was the real test - the actual conservatory itself was the usual too cold in winter and boiling in summer, which is standard for most conservatories.It’s now a lovely room that we’ve found ourselves using every single day, and the skylights make such a difference too, we have zero regrets having them fitted as they let light in on duller days. We can also open them when it gets hot in there (it still gets toasty but not unbearable) and they do the trick.We’ve not experienced a winter yet, but on chilly evenings we put our electric fire on and within 10 minutes it’s lovely and warm, where before we would have to pre-heat the room for a good hour to take the edge off.The only regret I have with this roof is not having it done sooner!If you’re wondering if you should get this done, I’d say 100% it will be one of the best decisions you’ll make.Gary knows his stuff and is really knowledgeable, he called and checked in with me in the week to make sure everything was going ok, when he came to quote us there were no hard sales, just an honest approach.Thank you Gary and team for making our conservatory a lovely room we can use a lot more now!We have added before and pic and after pics too
