Edwardian Conservatory Roof Transformation with Aluminium Glazing Bars

60mm Wide Aluminium Rafter Bar roofWhen a homeowner wanted to upgrade their ageing Edwardian-style wooden conservatory roof, they were looking for a solution that would improve both appearance and performance. The original roof used old polycarbonate sheets which had become dated and reduced the amount of natural light entering the space.

To create a brighter, more modern conservatory, they chose to replace the roof with glass roofing panels supported by Omegabuild’s premium aluminium glazing bars for glass roofs.

Because the conservatory design included both hips and a ridge, the customer selected the Omegabuild aluminium rafter bar range, which is specifically designed for complex glazed roof structures. Using our 50mm aluminium rafter bars together with the matching aluminium hip bars, the installation achieved a strong, high-quality finish with excellent structural support.

The result is a stunning new glass conservatory roof that floods the room with natural light while offering the durability and low maintenance benefits of powder-coated aluminium glazing bars. Unlike traditional timber systems, the aluminium bars require very little upkeep and provide a clean, modern appearance that will last for years.
