Solid roof conservatories fitted across Bedwas & CF83
Effectively part of Caerphilly, and the street we know best of any in the patch. That mix is why no single solid roof conservatories spec works for every Bedwas address — a Graig-y-Rhacca terrace needs different reveals to a newer Bedwas Bridge estate. We survey first, recommend the right steel reinforced uPVC or aluminium frames, and quote in writing. 10 year product, 2 year fitting, structural warranty on the base sits behind every job.

How we build solid roof conservatories
Base and dwarf wall checked or built, frames set and levelled, solid roof structure craned or lifted on, then insulated, tiled, boarded and skimmed so the inside reads as a room rather than a conservatory.
- • insulated solid roof with a U value around 0.15
- • steel reinforced uPVC or aluminium frames
- • dwarf wall or full height glazing
- • building regulation compliant ring beam
Guarantee: 10 year product, 2 year fitting, structural warranty on the base.
Owners of older and character property
Who this page is for: owners of older and character property in Bedwas
On older houses the opening is never square and the reveal is never standard. This page covers how we survey and pack those openings rather than forcing a stock size into them.
What we build into the quote for you
- Advice on conservation area and planning constraints before ordering
- Astragal or bar options that match the original glazing pattern
- The crew takes the old glass off site in a labelled sack that day, not a skip left on the drive.
- The bay-corner post gets a structural bracket into masonry, not a token fixing into the outer frame.
Completed work on older terraces and character stock where the elevation still reads correctly from the street
- Rain driven off the Rhymney river valley onto north facing frontsOur solid roof conservatories address this with insulated solid roof with a U value around 0.15.
- Terraced openings with original stone heads that must not be disturbedOur solid roof conservatories address this with insulated solid roof with a U value around 0.15.
- Older semis where the whole house still has 1990s framesOur solid roof conservatories address this with insulated solid roof with a U value around 0.15.
What we typically find on solid roof conservatories surveys around here
- ·The multipoint keeps have worn a shallow groove where the hooks now catch — closing needs a lift-and-pull.
- ·The bottom track on the sliding door has a build-up of grit that the rollers grind through every open cycle.
- ·Every south-facing frame has visible micro-cracking in the surface film — early sign of UV embrittlement.
- ·The frame drainage slots at the bottom are clogged with debris, so rainwater sits inside the chamber.
- ·The threshold weather bar is missing its rubber blade — you can see daylight under the door.
- ·Trickle vents on the older units are 4000mm² each — modern regs would spec 8000mm² for the same room.
- ·The escutcheon plate on the back door hides a botched cylinder swap where the follower is worn.
- ·The cill drainage caps on a north-facing elevation are frozen in place with layered moss.
- ·The bathroom pane is patterned glass from the original build, and the pattern is no longer a current stock line.
- ·The multipoint deadbolt still throws but the top hook has stopped catching and no one has noticed for months.
- ·The multipoint gearbox on the front door still throws, but the hooks miss the keeps by 2mm on the middle throw.
- ·Handles on the ground-floor windows have been swapped for cheap replacements that no longer match the espag rod.
- ·The georgian bar between panes on one unit has slipped off its top spacer and is sitting diagonally inside the sealed cavity.
- ·The concrete cill under the door has heaved by 3mm across the two-metre span, tilting the whole threshold.
- ·The window opens fine on a cold morning and binds by 3pm on a hot afternoon — classic thermal-expansion bind.
- ·The hinges are all dropped one notch from level, taking the sash out of square against the outer frame.
Why residents are booking solid roof conservatories right now

- ·The homeowner has quotes for a new kitchen next spring and wants the patio doors in before those trades arrive.
- ·The homeowner is preparing to work from home permanently and wants the office quieter than the living room used to be.
- ·The buyer wants a full set of the same colour across every elevation, not the current mixed collection.
- ·The buyer wants a composite door slab that a courier's boot cannot dent when a delivery is fumbled.
- ·The owner is dealing with a partner who works nights and needs the bedroom acoustically watertight before summer.
- ·The owner has watched the bay corner posts sag for a decade and now wants them straight and structural.
- ·A newborn has arrived and the parents want the nursery to hold a stable overnight temperature.
- ·The homeowner wants the property EPC to move up a band ahead of a remortgage in six months.
- ·The homeowner is 68 and wants a threshold that will still be usable in ten years without a step.
- ·The resident wants the frames to survive a specific paint colour on the render for at least a decade.
- ·The resident wants the kitchen brighter in the mornings without losing the privacy from next door's back garden.
- ·The resident has already lost one composite door to a courier boot and wants the replacement rated for impact.
- ·The resident wants the whole property warm to bare feet on a January morning — the frames are the last variable.
- ·The owner wants the front door to feel expensive to close — the weight, the sound, the drop of the latch.
- ·The resident wants the noise of the school run down and the light from the morning sun up.
How our fitters actually do the work
- ·The threshold ramp on an accessible door is set to a maximum 15mm rise and confirmed with a spirit-level lip.
- ·Cavity closers get inserted where the old frame's cavity closer has failed — not omitted because it is unseen work.
- ·The composite slab is not cut on site — if it does not fit, a new slab is ordered rather than trimmed.
- ·The client is walked through the finished job with a printed operation card, not a rushed verbal handover.
- ·The cylinder key gets a keyring immediately, so it does not sit unnoticed in a jacket pocket for the day.
- ·The site tidy happens twice per day, not once at the end, so brick dust doesn't track through the house.
- ·The client's alarm sensors on the old frames are removed and returned to the client, not binned by default.
- ·The reveals are photographed on arrival so any pre-existing damage is on record before the crew touches them.
- ·The multipoint hooks are lightly greased after fitting, before the door is closed for the first time.
- ·The friction stay on a new casement is set to the client's preferred restraint at handover — 45°, 90°, or fully open.
- ·Trickle vents are drilled through the outer frame with a bespoke jig — not freehand with a spade bit.
- ·The perimeter tape between frame and reveal is a compressible foam tape, not a plain butyl strip.
- ·The window boards are pre-treated on the underside with a moisture seal before setting in place.
- ·Ground protection sheet goes down before the old frame comes out — not after the mess starts.
- ·The keeps for the multipoint are set with a strike plate template, not marked by eye against the closed door.
- ·The lock cylinder is measured to sit flush with the escutcheon plate — a proud cylinder is a snap risk.

Yes — we work across every CF83 postcode, from Graig-y-Rhacca through to Waterloo, and out as far as Church Street. Minutes from our own address, which means we can call back the same day if anything needs adjusting.
Do you cover Caerphilly and Newport as well?+
Yes — Caerphilly is roughly 2 miles from Bedwas, Newport about 9. Same team, same prices, same guarantee.
How do you reach jobs in Bedwas from your base?+
Minutes from our own address, which means we can call back the same day if anything needs adjusting — typically a short run via A468.
What guarantee do I get when you fit solid roof conservatories in Bedwas?+
10 year product, 2 year fitting, structural warranty on the base. We're insured to work right across Caerphilly County Borough Council's area, and you have one named contact from quote to snag.
Can solid roof conservatories handle rain driven off the Rhymney river valley onto north facing fronts?+
Directly, yes — built as a permanent room, with the roof structure rated to the same life as a house extension roof. That matters in Bedwas where rain driven off the Rhymney river valley onto north facing fronts is the single most common reason people call us.
Will modern frames look wrong on an older house?+
They can, if the profile is chosen badly. Flush sash sits back into the reveal and keeps the sightline slim, which is why we specify it on older elevations rather than standard chamfered casements.
Do I need permission to replace windows on a character property?+
Usually not on an unlisted house outside a conservation area. Inside one, or where an article 4 direction applies, the rules are stricter and we will check with the council before you order.

Faults we fix before recommending solid roof conservatories
Fog between the panes means the sealed unit has failed — the glass can usually be swapped without touching the frame.
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.
