Transform your Plymouth conservatory into a room you can actually use

Is your conservatory currently a bit of a no-go zone? Most homeowners we chat to in Plymouth tell us the same story: it's a greenhouse in the summer and an icebox in the winter. We've spent years helping people across Devon and Cornwall reclaim these wasted spaces. Whether you're in Plymstock, Saltash, or closer to the Barbican, the South West weather doesn't pull any punches. Between the driving coastal rain and those surprisingly hot July afternoons, a standard polycarbonate or old glass roof just isn't up to the job. We specialise in replacing those thin, noisy roofs with high-performance alternatives that make your conservatory feel like a proper, permanent part of your home.

Why Choose Sky Top For Your Conservatory?

Transform your cold, noisy conservatory into a comfortable year-round living space with Sky Top Roofing LTD. Specialising in insulated warm roof replacements across Plymouth, Devon, and Cornwall, our fully qualified team delivers energy-efficient solutions that regulate temperature and add lasting value to your home.

Say goodbye to the too hot and too cold cycle

Imagine actually sitting down for Sunday lunch in your conservatory without needing a heater in February or a fan in August. It sounds simple, but for many of us, the conservatory is just a glorified storage area for half the year. By installing a modern warm roof, we can drastically improve your home's thermal efficiency. These systems are designed with a low U-Value, which is just a technical way of saying they are brilliant at keeping the heat in when it's chilly and out when it's sunny. Plus, you'll finally be able to hear yourself think when it rains—no more of that deafening drumming sound on the roof during a typical Plymouth downpour.

Lightweight tiled roofs built for coastal winds

You might be wondering if your existing structure can even handle the weight of a 'real' roof. The good news is that we use specialist lightweight tiles, like Tapco or Metrotile, which are specifically designed for conservatory conversions. They look exactly like traditional slate or stone but weigh a fraction of the amount. Because we're right on the coast, we make sure every installation includes a high-quality breathable membrane and a solid vapour barrier. This prevents the damp and condensation issues that often plague DIY or cheap 'wrap-over' jobs. It’s about building something that stands up to the salt air and the wind-driven rain we get coming off the Sound.

Simple upgrades with no hidden surprises

We don't believe in pushy sales tactics or complicated corporate jargon. When you call us, you're getting local experts who know exactly what they're doing. We'll pop round, have a proper look at your current setup, and give you a transparent, no-obligation quote. We can even talk about adding an internal pelmet with spotlights or a roof lantern if you want to keep that bright, airy feel while gaining the insulation of a solid roof. Every project we handle is fully insured and we take care of the Building Control (LABC) side of things too, so you won't have any headaches if you ever decide to sell your property.

Everything from minor repairs to full replacements

Not every conservatory needs a total overhaul. Sometimes, a bit of expert maintenance can go a long way. Are you dealing with a persistent leak near the house wall? Or perhaps the leadwork has seen better days? Our team handles everything from emergency storm damage repairs to complete roof replacements. We're proud to serve the entire 25-mile radius around Plymouth, reaching out into the rural villages of Devon and the coastal towns of Cornwall. No job is too small for us to treat with the same care and attention we'd give our own homes.

Common questions about conservatory roof conversions

Do I need planning permission? In most cases, you don't need planning permission to swap a glass roof for a tiled one, but you do need Building Control approval to ensure it's safe and energy-efficient—which we handle for you. How long does it take? Most of our Plymouth installations are completed in just a few days, meaning minimal disruption to your daily life. Will it make the room dark? While a solid roof is different from glass, the white internal ceilings reflect a huge amount of light, and we can always install stylish roof windows to keep the space bright.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our conservatory roof replacements and warm roof upgrades in Devon and Cornwall.

Is your Plymouth conservatory too cold in the winter and like a greenhouse in summer?

+

Most older conservatories in Devon and Cornwall use thin polycarbonate or glass that simply can't handle our changing weather. This makes the room freezing in January and sweltering in July. By choosing a replacement conservatory roof, you turn that wasted space into a room you can use every single day. Our insulated roofs act as a thermal barrier, keeping the heat inside during the winter and reflecting the sun's harsh rays during the summer months.

Do you need planning permission for a tiled conservatory roof in Plymouth?

+

In most cases, you won't need full planning permission to swap your old roof for a new tiled one. These upgrades usually fall under 'permitted development' rules. However, because Plymouth and the surrounding areas have many conservation zones, we always take a look at the specific requirements for your home. We can help you navigate the building regulations and make sure all the paperwork is handled correctly before we start any work.

What are the benefits of a warm roof installation compared to glass?

+

A warm roof is designed to make your conservatory feel like a natural extension of your home rather than a bolted-on glass box. Unlike traditional glass, a tiled conservatory roof includes multiple layers of high-performance insulation. This significantly cuts down on outside noise—meaning you won't have to turn the TV up when it rains—and it stops your furniture from fading in the sun. It’s a much more durable, long-term solution for homeowners looking to improve their living space.

Will a replacement conservatory roof make my house feel dark?

+

This is a common worry, but there are plenty of ways to keep your home bright. We often install stylish roof lanterns or sleek skylights into the new roof structure. These allow natural light to pour in from above while the solid parts of the roof do the hard work of keeping the temperature stable. You can also choose a bright internal plaster finish and add spotlighting to create a modern, airy feel that looks great day or night.

How long does it take to install a replacement conservatory roof in Devon or Cornwall?

+

We know you want your home back to normal as quickly as possible. Most of our conservatory upgrades are completed in just a few days. We start by removing the old roof and securing the new lightweight frame, making the structure watertight quickly. The tiling, insulation, and internal plastering follow shortly after. We stay on-site until the job is done, leaving your garden tidy and your new room ready to use.

Is energy efficient roofing a good investment for my property?

+

Absolutely. Adding a tiled, insulated roof is one of the most effective ways to boost the value of your home in Plymouth. Not only does it make the property more attractive to future buyers by adding a functional 'all-year' room, but it also helps lower your monthly energy bills. Because you won't be losing heat through the roof, your boiler doesn't have to work nearly as hard to keep the space warm, saving you money throughout the colder months.

Can my existing conservatory structure support a tiled roof?

+

Most modern conservatory frames are strong enough to take the weight of a replacement roof, especially since we use lightweight tiles designed specifically for this purpose. Before we begin, we always carry out a thorough check of your existing frames and foundations to make sure everything is safe and sturdy. If we find any issues, we’ll talk you through the options to reinforce the structure so your new roof stays solid for years to come.
