A conservatory is the dream addition to many people’s home and while most people don’t use them for their original purpose anymore, (growing tropical plants largely unavailable at the time), they will still make wondrous additions to anyone’s household.

They offer plenty of great benefits and give you an amazing space that will allow you to enjoy the weather in a way that’s not possible in any other setting. Conservatories come in a wide range of different styles and you’ll usually have a good idea of what you want, however one area where many people struggle to decide on what to do with is the roof.

A conservatory roof comes in a wide range of different styles and types, however, what will make the biggest impact is the material that you choose to use. While you have a lot of different options one of the most popular is PVC or polyvinyl chloride. PVC is one of the most popular plastic polymers in the world and it’s used in a wide variety of different goods.

A PVC conservatory roof does have its benefits and is a popular choice, however in our experience, many people will find a solid roof to be much better! While a solid tiled roof may not historically be as popular, this is changing fast as they offer great benefits. You won’t find these with any other type of roof and best of all an existing conservatory roof can be transformed into a solid tiled roof as well.

The benefits of a tiled roof

There are many great benefits to a tiled conservatory roof and they offer advantages and benefits you won’t find elsewhere. Let’s take a closer look at how a tiled roof can help you and compare it to a PVC roof.

Ensures balanced temperatures

One of the biggest benefits of a solid tiled roof is that it will help you ensure you get the perfect balanced temperature all year round. After all, shouldn’t you be cool and comfortable in your conservatory whatever time of the year it is? So many people end up not even using their conservatory as they find it is much too cold in the winter and too hot in the summer. With a tiled roof, your conservatory will be able to keep more heat in during the winter while also keeping excess heat out during the summer months.

More Security

A solid tiled roof is also much stronger than a PVC roof, meaning you’ll have a more secure roof that will help your conservatory stand up to the elements. The rain, wind, and hail can be a real nuisance when it comes to a PVC roof, so a tiled roof will help reduce noise and will even help prevent thieves from gaining entry via the roof.

It Will Match Your Property

This is really down to cosmetics but when you get a conservatory you want it to look good don’t you? With a solid tiled conservatory roof, you can better match the conservatory to your home, so it looks like a more natural extension. A PVC roof can look very out of place sometimes and won’t always gel with your decor.

The advantage Metrotile’s lightweight roof tiles has over alternatives is being up to one seventh of the weight of traditional materials while maintaining superb strength and durability.
