MODERN CONSERVATORY ROOF UPGRADE IN DEREHAM NR20
PROPERTY & LOCATION
This project took place at a well-kept family home in Dereham, NR20. The property featured a classic glass and polycarbonate conservatory that had become outdated in both performance and appearance.
Client Brief & Pain Point
The homeowners wanted to replace their ageing conservatory roof and frames with a more modern and energy-efficient alternative. The old setup struggled with temperature regulation and looked tired.
The old polycarbonate roof was clearly in need of replacing to a more energy efficient and aesthetically pleasing alternative.
Challenges Overcome
This build required careful replication of a tricky roof shape, ensuring structural soundness while fitting modern materials. Our team overcame this using detailed survey data and robust design checks.
Budget Band
This turnkey project came in between £18,000 and £22,000, depending on final specification and optional extras.
This was within the clients budget and will save them on energy bills.
To see all roof styles and options, it would be worth visiting our showroom in Norwich. It is 5000 sq ft and contains 8 fully build extension with various roof options for inspiration.

Design & Specification
Our solution was a bespoke roof system, tailored to replicate the original footprint while vastly improving performance. We installed:
- A new glass roof using A+ rated glazing
- Aluminium support panels for added insulation
- uPVC windows and French doors for durability and energy savings
- A white frame finish to complement the home’s style
This upgrade not only matched the existing architecture but also brought a contemporary edge to the garden room.
Energy Performance Gains
The new installation offers improved U-values, helping to stabilise internal temperatures. The conservatory now holds a consistent 21 °C, even on cooler days, contributing to an estimated 18% reduction in heating costs.
Before & After
The transformation speaks for itself. The old, weathered roof has been replaced with a crisp, clean, light-filled upgrade.
“We’re absolutely thrilled with the result—it feels like a brand new room. Warmer, brighter, and much more modern.” — Homeowner

Build Timeline & Logistics
- Lead time from survey to site: 4 weeks
- Installation time on-site: just 4 days

Outcome
The conservatory is now usable year-round, with better light, thermal comfort, and kerb appeal. Bills are lower, and the space feels brand new—all without requiring a full rebuild.
