Conservatory Roof Repairs in Brighton & Sussex

Get Your Conservatory Back to Being a Room You Can Enjoy All Year Round

A conservatory should be a wonderful, light-filled extension of your home. But when the roof starts to fail, it can quickly become the room everyone avoids—too cold in the winter, boiling hot in the summer, and unusable when it rains. Leaks, drips, and condensation can make the space damp, miserable, and can even damage your furniture.

At Sussex Roofs, we specialise in conservatory roof repairs for homeowners across Brighton and the surrounding Sussex area. We can fix leaks, replace damaged panels, and provide solutions to make your conservatory a comfortable, welcoming space again, whatever the weather.

Common Conservatory Roof Problems We Can Fix

Conservatory roofs, especially older ones, can develop a range of issues over time. Our experienced team can quickly diagnose and solve all the common problems.

  • Leaks and Drips: This is the most frequent complaint. A leak can come from a slipped panel, a failed seal, or damage around the lead flashing where the conservatory joins the house. We are experts at tracing the source of a leak and providing a permanent fix.
  • Damaged or Slipped Panels: Polycarbonate or glass panels can slip out of place or become cracked, often after high winds or due to age. This allows water to get in and heat to escape.
  • Misty or Cloudy Glazing: If the sealed units in your glass roof have become misty or filled with condensation, it means the seal has failed. This not only looks bad but also means the panel has lost all its insulating properties.
  • Rotting or Damaged Bars: The glazing bars that hold the roof panels in place can become damaged or corroded over time, weakening the structure and causing leaks.
  • Inefficient Insulation: Many older conservatory roofs offer very poor thermal insulation, making the room uncomfortably hot in summer and freezing cold in winter. This also means you’re losing a lot of expensive heat from your home.

Our Conservatory Roof Repair Services

We offer a straightforward and effective repair service to bring your conservatory back to life. We don’t believe in quick fixes that won’t last; we provide reliable, long-term solutions.

  • Leak Detection and Repair: Our first step is always to find the exact source of the leak. We conduct a thorough inspection of the entire roof, checking every panel, seal, and joint. Once we’ve found the problem, we’ll carry out a professional repair, whether it’s replacing a seal, re-seating a panel, or repairing the flashing.
  • Panel Replacement: If you have a cracked, shattered, or misty roof panel, we can replace it. We can match your existing material, whether it’s polycarbonate sheeting or a double-glazed glass unit. We can also take this opportunity to upgrade your panels to a more modern, energy-efficient option.
  • Improving Thermal Performance: If your main problem is that your conservatory is “too hot, too cold,” we can help. Replacing old polycarbonate panels with modern, solar-control glass can make a huge difference. This special glass reflects the sun’s heat in summer to keep the room cooler, while its excellent insulating properties help to keep the warmth in during winter. This can transform the usability of the space and help reduce your energy bills.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Is it worth repairing an old conservatory roof?

In most cases, yes. A professional repair is almost always more cost-effective than replacing the entire conservatory. Fixing leaks or replacing a few panels can give the structure many more years of life and dramatically improve its comfort and usability.

How much do conservatory roof repairs cost?

The cost depends entirely on the problem. Replacing a single seal is a small, low-cost job, while replacing all the glass panels with high-performance units is a larger investment. We always provide a free, no-obligation survey and a fixed-price quote so you can make an informed decision.

Can you stop my conservatory from being so hot in the summer?

Yes. The best way to do this is by upgrading the roof panels to modern solar-control glass. This glass has a special coating that reflects a large percentage of the sun’s heat, keeping the room significantly cooler and reducing glare without making it dark.

My glass roof panels are all misty inside. Can this be fixed?

Unfortunately, a “blown” or misty sealed unit cannot be repaired. The condensation is trapped between the panes of glass where the seal has failed. The only solution is to replace the affected glass unit with a new one. We can do this quickly and efficiently.

How long does a typical repair take?

Most common repairs, such as fixing a leak or replacing a single panel, can often be completed in just a few hours or within a single day. Larger jobs, like replacing all the panels in a roof, might take a couple of days. We will always give you a clear timeline for the work.
