This page is for work on a new structure rather than a replacement in an existing opening. Tolerances, cill details and the order of trades matter far more than they do on a straight swap.

- Building regulations compliant ventilation and safety glazing specified up front
- Coordination with the plasterer so reveals are finished cleanly

Why Brecon homeowners choose us
What we typically find on conservatory roof replacement surveys around here
- ·The front door has been painted three times without stripping — the paint film is now stopping the door closing at the top.
- ·The bathroom pane is patterned glass from the original build, and the pattern is no longer a current stock line.
- ·A tenant repair on the bathroom window has used bathroom silicone as the primary bead — it's already gone black.
- ·The window opens fine on a cold morning and binds by 3pm on a hot afternoon — classic thermal-expansion bind.
- ·A previous fitter left the transport wedges in the frame corners and the internal seal never fully reset.
- ·The threshold weather bar is missing its rubber blade — you can see daylight under the door.
- ·A previous fitter foam-filled the reveal gap directly against the frame, and the foam has now pushed the jamb inward.
- ·The door-side glazed sidelight has a shattered internal pane held together by the laminated interlayer.
- ·The multipoint gearbox on the front door still throws, but the hooks miss the keeps by 2mm on the middle throw.
- ·The top vent has been kept permanently closed with a wooden shim wedged inside the frame.
- ·The internal glazing bead sits proud of the frame by 1.5mm, so the seal at the top corner has failed first.
- ·There is a hairline crack running diagonally from the top corner of one bathroom pane where the frame has twisted.
- ·The transom bar has a live crack in the plastic, opened up by summer expansion cycles.
- ·The cill end-cap has fallen off and the cill chamber is now a home for insects.
- ·The top hinge on the front door has torn its middle screw out and been left to run on two fixings.
- ·The trickle vent on the master bedroom has been foil-taped shut for warmth — condensation has doubled since.
Why residents are booking conservatory roof replacement right now

- ·The owner has scaffolding booked for a re-render and wants the frames sequenced around the render trades.
- ·The owner has tried draught-excluder tape and a chimney balloon and now accepts the frames themselves are the cause.
- ·The resident is a keen gardener and wants a patio door that opens as fully as possible into the garden.
- ·The buyer wants an installer who will still exist to honour a guarantee in year eight.
- ·The owner wants a threshold that does not require a step for a mobility scooter to clear.
- ·The homeowner wants the back door to be a family door — kids in and out, and no one having to slam it to lock.
- ·The resident wants the letterbox to stop being a draught source without giving up daily post.
- ·The buyer wants a genuine Which? Trusted Trader install, not a subcontracted crew running the badge.
- ·The homeowner has an infrared thermometer and has been point-checking the frames — they want the readings up by ten degrees.
- ·The owner wants the master bedroom quiet enough for a night-shift partner to sleep past 11am.
- ·The buyer wants a composite door slab that a courier's boot cannot dent when a delivery is fumbled.
- ·The buyer wants a composite front door that reads more house-proud than the run of identical rentals on the road.
- ·The current front door leaks visibly around the letterplate every time the wind swings east.
- ·The homeowner is fine spending more if the crew is right — the price is the last question, not the first.
How our fitters actually do the work
- ·The trickle vent chamber inside the frame is proven clear with a torch before the outer cap goes on.
- ·The frame is protected with a low-tack tape at any point a tool might scrape it during the fitting hour.
- ·The gasket is dressed into every corner with a specific gasket tool, not a screwdriver, so the corner stays sharp.
- ·The wall around the frame is Hoovered before the client sees the room again — brick dust ages a first impression.
- ·The internal skirting is protected with a strip of packing tape across the top edge before any tool touches it.
- ·The concrete cill under the frame is checked for cracks; a hairline gets a slurry fix before the frame is set.
- ·Ground protection sheet goes down before the old frame comes out — not after the mess starts.
- ·The screws through the outer frame go into pilot-drilled masonry, not driven with hammer action alone.
- ·The frame square is checked at the diagonals before any glass goes in — a square frame stays square.
- ·Sealant is a single continuous bead run at the perimeter, not overlapped in six-inch runs.
- ·The lead fitter leaves a handwritten note of anything the client should watch in the first month, not a printed generic checklist.
- ·The keeps for the multipoint are set with a strike plate template, not marked by eye against the closed door.
- ·The client is walked through the operation of every lock, every vent, and every restraint before the crew leaves.
- ·The internal make-good caulk is polymer, tooled with a wet finger and then a spatula for a final radius.
- ·The crew leaves the client with a printed adjustment card so the multipoint keeps can be re-set six months on without a callout.
- ·The letterplate brush strip is trimmed to the exact height of the door thickness so it seals without dragging.
FAQs — conservatory roof replacement in Brecon
Can conservatory roof replacement handle exposed hillside wind and freeze-thaw on single-skin stone walls?+
Directly, yes — the tile and insulation system carries a 25 year weathering expectation and the room stays usable in january and july. That matters in Brecon where exposed hillside wind and freeze-thaw on single-skin stone walls is the single most common reason people call us.
Why replace the whole set rather than one-by-one in a Brecon home?+
Because a conservatory that is unusable because it freezes in winter, bakes in summer and drums so loudly in rain that you cannot hear the television rarely stays isolated — once one unit goes, the rest follow within a few years. Doing it once means matching frames across the elevation and one trip for our team into LD3.
Do you fit conservatory roof replacement across all of Brecon?+
Yes — we work across every LD3 postcode, from Llanfaes through to Cradoc, and out as far as Talybont-on-Usk. We travel the A470 north weekly — Brecon jobs are booked in blocks so we're not doing a single-window trip 40 miles each way.
How long does a conservatory roof replacement install take in a Brecon property?+
Most roofs are stripped, tiled and plastered inside 3 to 5 days. Most of the Georgian and Victorian stone houses in the town centre we see in Brecon fit our standard schedule with no surprises.
Will conservatory roof replacement suit the older Georgian and Victorian stone houses in the town centre common around Brecon?+
South Wales rainfall is what kills polycarbonate roofs here, and a warm roof stops both the noise and the heat loss in one job. We've installed dozens in Llanfaes and Cradoc alone.
Do you work from architect's drawings?+
Yes. Send the elevations and we will return structural opening sizes, cill details and the glazing specification in writing so the openings are formed correctly.
Can you supply performance figures for building control?+
Yes. U values, ventilation provision and safety glazing positions are supplied in writing with the quotation for the SAP or Part L submission.

A draught is usually a compression problem — gasket, hinge or seal — long before it's a reason to replace the window.
Which face the water sits on tells you everything: inside is ventilation, between the panes is a failed unit, outside is normal physics.
A door that needs lifting, shoving or a second attempt to lock is warning you before the gearbox fails completely.
