In the last few years, conservatories have become quite a big trend amongst modern home owners in London, and now, most houses have one. If you have moved into a new home or your current one has a conservatory, it is likely that it needs to have the roof checked out and even repaired.
The need for conservatory roof repairs

If you notice an increased amount of condensation, then it is important to have your conservatory roof checked by a professional soon.
Though conservatories require more effort to be kept as warm as your home, the conservatory should never be too cold to the point where you can’t comfortably stay there. When you find your conservatory to be either too hot or cold, then this means that there is a problem. This might be due to leakage in the roof that lets air in or there could be an issue with the sealant either with the uPVC or on your windows.
Conservatories are not typically a high maintenance extension, however, they do require proper cleaning internally and externally on regular basis in order to be kept in a good condition. But it hardly requires extensive maintenance. If you do not clean the conservatory properly, then this may get clogged up with mould, debris and moss from dirt and fallen leaves which can cause damage over time.

Drafts of cold air in the conservatory are a sign of an insulation issue. If the draft is not coming from doors or windows, then there is probably some damage with the structure of conservatory or the roof.
