T-shape conservatory glass roof cost
A glass roof on a medium T-shape conservatory typically costs £5,100 to £8,200, fitted.
A T-shape has a wide lean-to or Edwardian section along the house with a projection sticking out from the middle, often with its own Victorian or gable front. These are usually the largest conservatories and the most complex roofs.
Glass roofs on a T-shape conservatory
The large glass area makes solar control and ventilation important. Opening roof vents are worth considering.
- Two valleys, several hips and long gutter runs make labour the biggest part of the price.
- Large glazed floor areas get very hot under polycarbonate or glass, so these rooms benefit most from a solid roof.
- Bigger roofs are more likely to need structural calculations and extra posts.
