Each roof kit is a bespoke design and made from thermally broken aluminium. There are three main styles to choose from including Mediterranean, Victorian and Edwardian. All styles have Victorian styled glazing bars, crest, tie-bars and end caps in cast aluminium. Please see our gallery and designs pages.
Your roof can be any RAL colour of your choice, Polyester powder coated to BS6496. RAL is an industry standard range of around 200 colours, you may also choose one our standard browns or whites. In addition to standard flat paint finishes we also have an exciting range of textured paints. Please see our RAL chart and textured paint pages for examples. We also offer a marine powder finish, please ask for details.
Our roofing system can be glazed with either 16 or 25mm polycarbonate sheeting, however we recommend 28mm glass sealed units. Glass units dramatically reduce the noise of rain on the roof, plus, high-tech self-cleaning glass such as Pilkington Activ Blue can be specified. We have also just introduced the new Reflex Glass to our conservatory roofs; here is a 4 minute 38 second video about the glass.

Our roof design is able to withstand wind speeds of 100 mph (tested to CP3 Chapter V Part 2 for wind loadings). Having a strong roof means that it will withstand several inches of snow, or can take maintenance boards to carry out works above the conservatory. The ABD system has been tested to BS6399 by independant structural engineers.
All our roof kits come with on-site personal tuition on first order.
