Maximise your home’s potential with an energy-efficient conservatory roof upgrade from Taylorglaze
When it comes to enhancing both property value and energy efficiency, few home improvements deliver such impressive returns as a conservatory roof replacement.At Taylorglaze, we specialise in transforming tired, outdated conservatories across London, Essex, and Hertfordshire with state-of-the-art roofing systems, including the market-leading SupaLite conservatory roof.
Replacing your conservatory roof is not merely a cosmetic update; it's an investment that pays dividends in comfort, efficiency, and resale appeal.
Below, we explore exactly how a modern conservatory roof can elevate your home, and your EPC (Energy Performance Certificate) rating.
Increase property value across London, Essex & Hertfordshire
Homeowners in London, Essex, and Hertfordshire are constantly seeking ways to add tangible value to their properties.
A high-quality conservatory roof replacement stands out as a prime opportunity.Buyers today are energy-conscious and expect more than just visual appeal, they want long-term savings and functional living spaces. By installing a SupaLite roof, your conservatory transforms from a seasonal sunroom into a fully functional, year-round living area. This added usable space is a huge selling point.
An updated conservatory roof also enhances your home’s kerb appeal and ensures it meets modern insulation standards, potentially boosting market value by up to 10%, depending on your location and the extent of the upgrade.Boosting your EPC rating with a new conservatory roof
A home’s EPC rating is a crucial factor in determining its energy efficiency and future-proofing.
A poor EPC rating can dissuade buyers and increase energy costs.Outdated glass or polycarbonate conservatory roofs are notoriously inefficient, allowing heat to escape in the winter and creating an oven-like effect in the summer. This energy imbalance contributes to poor insulation performance, lowering your EPC score.
Replacing your roof with a thermally efficient SupaLite system drastically reduces energy loss. These roofs feature advanced insulation technology, keeping heat inside during colder months and reducing the need for air conditioning in the summer.
Incorporating a new conservatory roof into your home’s envelope allows your EPC score to reflect modern energy standards, increasing the property’s value, lowering utility bills, and making your home more sustainable.

Transform seasonal use into year-round comfort
One of the most common complaints about older conservatories is that they’re too hot in summer and too cold in winter. This drastically limits how often the space is used.By upgrading to a thermally efficient roof, you unlock the true potential of your conservatory. Whether you’re in London, Essex, or Hertfordshire, your new roof creates a balanced internal temperature, reducing the strain on your heating and cooling systems.
Every season becomes an opportunity: a sun-drenched breakfast room in spring, a cozy winter reading nook, or a sophisticated home office that’s insulated and comfortable all year round.
Planning permission & building regulations: what you need to know
Replacing a conservatory roof doesn’t typically require planning permission, provided you're not making structural changes to the size of the conservatory. However, you do need to comply with Building Regulations.At Taylorglaze, we manage the entire compliance process for you. Our SupaLite systems are certified, and we provide all documentation necessary to show that your new roof meets thermal performance, structural integrity, and ventilation standards.
This not only gives you peace of mind but also ensures future buyers have the confidence that the upgrade was completed to exacting standards.Cost vs value: the long-term ROI of roof replacement
While the initial cost of a conservatory roof replacement may vary, typically between £5,000 and £12,000, the return on investment is substantial.Long-Term Financial Benefits:
- Lower heating and cooling bills
- Increased property value
- Enhanced comfort and usability
- Faster resale due to higher EPC and better aesthetics
- Fewer maintenance issues over time
