Updated onSeptember 2026

A tiled roof on a medium T-shape conservatory typically costs £10,900 to £15,400, fitted.

Small£10,400£8,800 to £12,100
Medium£13,200£10,900 to £15,400
Large£16,400£13,600 to £19,100

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.

Tiled roofs on a T-shape conservatory

Expect structural calculations, a ring beam round the whole frame, and possibly internal posts. Prices vary more between installers on T-shapes than any other style.

  • 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.
