Conservatory Conversions

At Vantage Windows and Doors, we offer conservatory conversions that completely change how that space feels and how you use it. Instead of ripping everything out and starting again, we take your existing conservatory and upgrade it properly by replacing the roof, windows and doors while keeping the original base in place.

The result is a room that feels solid, quieter and far more usable, without the disruption or cost of building an extension.

When Your Conservatory Stops Working For You

Many conservatories built in the 1990s and early 2000s were fitted with polycarbonate or older glass roofs and basic glazing. At the time, they looked great, but years later, the problems started to show.

We often hear the same frustrations:

A room that is too cold for long periods of the year
Excessive noise during rain or wind
Large temperature swings that make the space uncomfortable
A dated appearance that does not match the rest of the house
A feeling that the conservatory is separate rather than part of the home

In most cases, the base and main structure are still perfectly sound. It is the roof and glazing that let the space down, which is why a conversion can be such an effective solution

What a conservatory conversion involves

A conservatory conversion focuses on upgrading what is already there, rather than starting again from scratch.

We remove the existing roof and replace it with a lightweight, insulated tiled roof. At the same time, we remove the old windows and doors and install new ones that better suit the intended use of the room.

The base of the conservatory stays exactly where it is. As a result, the work is far less disruptive than building an extension, and in most cases, planning permission is not required. All work is designed to meet current building regulations.

Most conservatory conversions are completed in around 8 to 9 days.

Why convert your conservatory instead of replacing it?

So why should you go for a conservatory conversion? The truth is that for many homes, a conservatory conversion makes more sense than a full replacement or extension. Here are just a few reasons why this is such a good option for homeowners like yourself.

No need for new foundations to be dug
Shorter build time with less disruption
Lower cost compared to a traditional extension
Keeps the footprint of your existing conservatory
Creates a more enjoyable living space for your family to enjoy

In other words, by keeping the existing footprint and upgrading what is already there, you get a room that feels far more like part of the house, without digging foundations or waiting months for the work to be completed.

It is a sensible option for anyone who wants to make better use of the space they already have.

Replacing the roof makes the biggest difference

The roof plays a huge role in how a conservatory feels. Older polycarbonate and glass roofs are often the main reason a space is noisy and uncomfortable.

A lightweight tiled roof changes that completely. It gives the conservatory a more solid structure, reduces noise during bad weather, and makes the room feel calmer and more enclosed. Visually, it also helps the conservatory blend in better with the rest of the property, rather than standing out as an add-on.

This one change alone can transform how the room feels, especially when combined with new windows and doors.

New windows and doors as part of the conversion

As part of the conversion, we replace the existing windows and doors, ensuring the entire space functions as a cohesive, finished room.

This improves the look and feel of the conservatory and avoids the issue of mixing old and new materials. It also allows us to tailor the layout and style to how you want to use the room, whether that is opening it up to the garden or creating a more enclosed living space.

Everything is supplied and installed by the same team, which keeps the process simple and the finish consistent.

A room you can actually enjoy using

Once converted, many homeowners are surprised by just how different the room feels. What was once a space they avoided becomes somewhere they naturally spend time.

Converted conservatories are often used as:

Dining spaces
Family rooms
Home offices
Relaxed seating areas

More importantly, the room stops feeling seasonal. Instead of planning around the weather or time of year, the space becomes part of everyday life.
It feels settled, quieter and far more in keeping with the rest of the home, which is often what people wanted from their conservatory in the first place.

How much does a conservatory conversion cost?

Rather than offering rough estimates, we prefer to provide a proper quote once we have seen the conservatory. This keeps everything clear from the outset and avoids surprises later on.
