Replace conservatory roof with timber
I'm planning to replace the polycarbonate roof on my uPVC conservatory
with a traditional "flat" timber roof, plus a skylight. You do realise that this would probably be illegal under building regulations? Basically, it would no longer be a conservatory and would need to comply with the entire myriad of building regulations, including insulation, which may not be possible with the fully glazed walls. The foundations would be a particular worry, too. Assuming that you just don't care about the regs, I would have suspected that the uPVC frames would be a bit marginal to hold the roof up, but this is only a guess. Why do you want to replace the polycarbonate? Perhaps there is another solution? Christian. |
