A solid roof conservatory is a conservatory built with a solid, insulated roof. These roofs can have solid panels or tiles, and can also have roof lights or glazed panels incorporated. A solid roof conservatory stays warmer in winter and cooler in summer, making it more usable throughout the year and more energy efficient too.
Solid Roof Conservatory Types
Our solid roof conservatories come with a wide range of customisation options, from beautiful roof tiles and colours to contemporary panels and glazing.
Solid Panel Roof
Transform your conservatory with anthracite grey solid roof panels for a bespoke design that can be combined with glazed glass panels to let in more natural light.
Traditional Tiled Roof
Our traditional materials for your solid conservatory roof include clay, slate and concrete. Match traditional roof tiles to your existing roof tiles. Our concrete tiles come in a range of six colours.
Replica Tiles
Choose from three replica tile solid roof colour options that recreate traditional tiles. Slate effect carbon grey tiles replicate slate while Terra Brick tiles imitate clay.

Explore our range of popular conservatories that can be paired with a solid roof. Choose the shape and design you want and create a new room you can be comfortable in all year round.
Victorian
Create a period look with a Victorian solid roof conservatory. Choose from slate-effect tiles in three different colours to match your home, as well as decorative finishing details. Ideal for more traditional and period properties.
Lean-to
A lean-to conservatory with a solid roof is a cost-effective and adaptable option for many homes. It can be designed to fit in smaller or more awkward spaces, with a simple sloping roof and lots of options for colours and customisation.
Edwardian
Edwardian conservatories offer elegant designs in square or rectangular shapes, allowing for lots of floor space and height. A solid roof helps to make it a functional room all year long, ideal as a dining room or for entertaining.
Elizabethan
An Elizabethan conservatory brings a traditional look that can be topped with a three-sided solid roof. The slate-effect tiles add to the classic design of this conservatory style, with a choice of elegant finishing details and customisation.
Regency
Regency conservatories offer an elegant and classic look with a sloping gable roof and a sunburst window. This lets in lots of natural light even when combined with a solid roof. It makes for a perfect dining room or sitting room for enjoying views outdoors.
Benefits of a Tiled & Solid Roof Conservatory
-
Thermally Efficient
A tiled roof conservatory is much more thermally efficient than older polycarbonate or clear glass roofs. Conservatories with a solid roof have lower U-values for better energy efficiency than glass or plastic, helping you to save money on your energy bills.
-
Advanced Roofing Systems
An Anglian solid roof conservatory is designed to withstand even the most extreme British weather, including heavy snow falls. We use location software to design your roof around the weather profile of your area.
-
More Living Space
Expand a kitchen or living room with a solid roof conservatory and enjoy more space, light, and views of your garden. It’s an affordable way to add space to your home without needing a brick extension.

Customer Reviews
Solid Conservatory Roof Building Regulations
Planning Permission
If you’re adding a solid roof conservatory to your home, it’s always advisable to check with your local authority to see if you need planning permission. Planning permission isn’t usually needed for a solid roof conservatory, but it’s always important to be certain. When you choose a new conservatory or living space with us, we take care of any planning applications so you don’t need to worry.
Building Regulations
Generally, conservatories are exempt from building regulations, though there are some specifics around energy efficiency and glazing that need to be adhered to. If you’re removing a wall to create an open-plan conservatory space, this would require building regulations approval. All our conservatories, orangeries and extensions comply with all building regulations wherever we operate.
