Conservatory Roofs: Inform Yourself, Inform Your Customers

When it comes to selling and installing conservatories, the roof is often the deciding factor for homeowners. Get it right, and you’re not just selling a product, you’re providing year-round comfort, extra living space, and a high-value upgrade that customers will thank you for. Get it wrong, and the result can be an overheated, noisy or under-used room that reflects badly on everyone involved. That’s why, as a trade professional, being able to confidently talk about conservatory roof options is essential. At Worcester Trade Frames, we make sure our trade partners have the right products, knowledge and support to guide customers from enquiry to installation.

Why Roof Knowledge Matters in the Trade

Most customers will have one simple complaint about their old conservatory: “It’s too hot in summer and too cold in winter.”

As the installer, you’re in the position to explain the solution, but that means knowing your tiled, solid, lantern and glazed systems inside out.

A homeowner isn’t just buying a roof; they’re buying your expertise. By giving them the facts, setting realistic expectations, and explaining the benefits clearly, you not only close the sale but also build long-term trust and referrals.

The Main Roof Options You’ll Be Asked About

We supply a complete range of conservatory roof systems to cover every project. Here’s how to frame each option when talking to customers:

• Tiled Conservatory Roofs
  The go-to choice for homeowners who want a proper extension feel. Great insulation, quieter interiors, and a seamless match to the home’s roof. Stress the benefits of thermal performance and kerb appeal.
  
• Solid Conservatory Roofs with Glazed Panels
  A hybrid option that blends solid sections with rooflights. Perfect for customers worried about losing natural light while still wanting year-round comfort.
  
• Lantern Roofs
  A premium upgrade for flat roof extensions and orangeries. They flood a room with light and add an architectural feature that sells itself.
  
• Skypods / Skylights
  Smaller but powerful features to brighten up kitchens, dining areas or refurbished conservatories. A strong upsell opportunity when customers want daylight without a full glazed roof.
  

Knowing how to position these options means you can match the right solution to the right customer need, and secure higher-value orders.

Every conservatory roof you install needs to be structurally sound, weatherproof and fully compliant with regulations.

Our team provides clear advice on building control requirements, along with a fast, reliable quoting service so you can respond to customers quickly. To help you win more business, we also supply marketing materials that build customer confidence. This means you’re not just fitting a product – you’re delivering a complete solution.

The Technical Edge

Knowing how to position each conservatory roof option means you can match the right solution to the right customer need and secure higher-value orders. Tiled roofs remain the go-to choice for homeowners who want a proper extension feel, offering excellent insulation, quieter interiors and a seamless match to the home’s roofline. Solid roofs with glazed panels provide a hybrid solution, blending comfort and insulation with the benefit of natural light. Lantern roofs are a premium upgrade that add architectural impact while flooding the space with daylight, making them ideal for flat roof extensions and orangeries. Meanwhile, skypods and skylights are a simple but powerful way to brighten kitchens, dining rooms or refurbished conservatories, and they also create strong upsell opportunities when customers want more light without a full glazed roof.
