Conservatory roofs in Barnet

Barnet is about 21 miles south of my Hitchin office, down the A1(M) and A1081. High Barnet, New Barnet and East Barnet have a mix of Victorian and Edwardian houses, lots of 1930s semis, and larger homes towards Arkley, Totteridge and Hadley Wood.

High Barnet sits on one of the highest points around London, so homes there catch more wind than you'd expect. Many of the conservatories added to Barnet's semis over the years have polycarbonate or glass roofs that make the room cold in winter and too hot in summer. A Nu-Look insulated tiled roof, with a U-value of 0.14, makes it a proper room without building an extension.

I also cover Whetstone, Totteridge, Cockfosters and Hadley Wood.

Red rock and Brick red Tapco tiles suit Barnet's 1930s semis, while Grey suits Victorian slate roofs.

Barnet homeowners often ask whether to replace the whole conservatory or just the roof. In most cases the frames and base are sound, and it is only the roof that makes the room uncomfortable, so a new insulated tiled roof is a much quicker and less disruptive way to gain a usable room. Low-interest finance options are available, subject to status.

  • A bespoke timber frame, with every material cut on site by the fitters, so there are no manufacturing errors

  • A 10-year insurance-backed guarantee, plus a 40-year manufacturer's guarantee on the tiles
  • We arrange approval and completion sign-off where needed
  • Low-interest finance options, subject to status

How it works

First, send the form or call me and we'll arrange a time for me to visit you in Barnet. I'll measure up, explain your options and send a fixed-price quote, usually within 24 hours. If you go ahead, a structural survey and full technical check come next, and then we agree a start date. On the day, the old polycarbonate or glass roof comes off, the timber structure goes up, then the insulation, plasterboard and tiles. In the vast majority of cases the whole job, including plastering and electrics, is finished within 2 weeks.

Nu-Look is a family business, and over 40% of its annual sales come from customers recommending it to a friend, relative or neighbour. We never inflate quotations to make a discount look bigger. Every customer gets a fair price, every time.

Frequently asked questions

Do you cover New Barnet, Whetstone and Cockfosters?

Yes. I cover High Barnet, New Barnet, East Barnet, Arkley, Whetstone, Totteridge, Hadley Wood and Cockfosters.

Do you work in London?

Yes. I cover north London areas within my roughly 40-mile area, including Barnet and Enfield.

How long will my conservatory be out of action?

The initial build usually takes 3 to 5 days, depending on size, and in the vast majority of cases everything is finished within 2 weeks, including plastering and electrics.

How different will my conservatory really be?

Once the roof is fitted, the conservatory has the same insulation value as any other room in your home. The U-value drops to 0.14 W/m²K, compared with around 1.7 W/m²K for a typical old roof. A polycarbonate roof provides up to 8 times less insulation, and a glass roof up to 6 times less.

What guarantees do I get?

Every Nu-Look roof comes with a 10-year insurance-backed guarantee through QualityMark Protection, which also offers deposit protection. The Tapco tiles carry a 40-year manufacturer's guarantee against wind, rain, fire, cracking and delamination.

Is finance available?

Yes. Low-interest finance options are available, subject to status. Ask for details at your survey.

Do I need building regulations approval?

Replacing a conservatory roof with a solid roof often needs building regulations approval. We arrange approval and completion sign-off where needed, so you don't have to.
