Victorian

The Victorian roof can also work really well when you might not have as much space in the garden as you would like. The internal plaster finish on the roof can look really attractive with its facet front finish.

Lean-To

The Warm Roof Lean-To is ideal to maximise space at the back of the house. The ends can either have one or to hips (slopes). It is ideal for kitchen extensions and can go as low as 15 Degrees with roof windows.

Gable Ended

The gable ended main feature is its continuous height it brings to the room owing to its long ridge down the centre. The gable also allows you to get the most from your roof windows giving you a light and airy space. Suitable for replacement or new build.

Combination

Increase your options with a combination Guardian Sunroom. A P-Shape simply combines the benefits of two different styles to maximise your living environment. The combination can also come in what you call a T-shape. As individual as you are.

Porch

Putting a porch onto the front of your house not only adds to the aesthetics of your house it also increases the energy efficiency.

The addition of a porch creates a draft lobby on your house preventing all the heat escaping when the front door is opened.

The Guardian Roof is the ideal solution for your porch because of its speed of installation and the sharpness of its finish.

Internal Finishes

Plasterboard Finish

The more popular internal ceiling finish on most sunrooms would be the plasterboard painted white, this has a nice bright white finish to it allowing as much light to be bounced around the room as possible. This finish would be the ideal solution in the case of a conservatory roof replacement as you have become so used to the amount of light from your glass or polycarbonate roof the white finish will go somewhat to bringing the light back into your home. The white and timber internal finish of the Fakro window will have no problem standing up to the Plastered finish.

Timber Finish

If your room is naturally bright the Timber finish could be the perfect choice for your ceiling, depending on the design and layout of your home this finish could also allow you to tie in aesthetically with existing finishes. The timber finish on the Fakro window also works really well in this case.

Insulation

Warm Roof is insulated to full Building Control standard achieving a u value of 0.16w/mk. The insulation consists of 40mm superquilt and 60mm PIR insulation in all foil backed plasterboard application, the same insulation is used in a Timber finish ceiling but a vapour controlled layer is also needed with this. Warm Roof is classed as a warm roof construction. All second fix items such as architraves, skirting, electrics and decoration to be agreed between installer and client.
