Tiled Conservatory Roof Huntingdon

T-shape conservatory with a tiled roof fitted by Nu-Look

Conservatory roofs in Huntingdon

Huntingdon is about 27 miles north of my Hitchin office, reached up the A1 and A14. Together with Godmanchester across the river and St Ives a few miles east, it makes up a large area of homes that range from historic town-centre properties to 1960s and 1970s estates built during the town's expansion, plus newer homes at Brampton and Alconbury Weald.

The Great Ouse valley here is flat and open, and conservatories catch both the cold winter winds and the full summer sun. Plenty of the conservatories in Huntingdon, Hartford and Godmanchester were built 15 to 25 years ago with polycarbonate or basic glass roofs, and those rooms are often too cold to sit in for half the year. A Nu-Look insulated tiled roof brings the U-value down to 0.14, so the conservatory keeps its heat like any other room.

I cover Huntingdon, Godmanchester, Hartford, Brampton, St Ives, the Hemingfords and the villages around them.

Grey and Stone black Tapco tiles suit the slate-style roofs in older parts of town, while Chestnut brown matches many of the estates.

Huntingdon homeowners often ask whether to replace the whole conservatory or just the roof. In most cases the frames and base are sound, and it is only the roof that makes the room uncomfortable, so a new insulated tiled roof is a much quicker and less disruptive way to gain a usable room. Low-interest finance options are available, subject to status.

How it works

First, send the form or call me and we'll arrange a time for me to visit you in Huntingdon. I'll measure up, explain your options and send a fixed-price quote, usually within 24 hours. If you go ahead, a structural survey and full technical check come next, and then we agree a start date. On the day, the old polycarbonate or glass roof comes off, the timber structure goes up, then the insulation, plasterboard and tiles. In the vast majority of cases the whole job, including plastering and electrics, is finished within 2 weeks.

Nu-Look is a family business, and over 40% of its annual sales come from customers recommending it to a friend, relative or neighbour. We never inflate quotations to make a discount look bigger. Every customer gets a fair price, every time.

Frequently asked questions

Do you cover St Ives and Godmanchester?

Yes. I cover Huntingdon, Godmanchester, St Ives, Brampton, Hartford, the Hemingfords and surrounding villages.

Huntingdon is quite a way from Hitchin. Is that a problem?

No. It's within my roughly 40-mile area. I come out to measure up, and the fitting team works to the same standard wherever you are.

How long will my conservatory be out of action?

The initial build usually takes 3 to 5 days, depending on size, and in the vast majority of cases everything is finished within 2 weeks, including plastering and electrics.

How different will my conservatory really be?

Once the roof is fitted, the conservatory has the same insulation value as any other room in your home. The U-value drops to 0.14 W/m²K, compared with around 1.7 W/m²K for a typical old roof. A polycarbonate roof provides up to 8 times less insulation, and a glass roof up to 6 times less.

What guarantees do I get?

Every Nu-Look roof comes with a 10-year insurance-backed guarantee through QualityMark Protection, which also offers deposit protection. The Tapco tiles carry a 40-year manufacturer's guarantee against wind, rain, fire, cracking and delamination.

Is finance available?

Yes. Low-interest finance options are available, subject to status. Ask for details at your survey.

Do I need building regulations approval?

Replacing a conservatory roof with a solid roof often needs building regulations approval. We arrange approval and completion sign-off where needed, so you don't have to.
