I know this is not the nicest way to begin an article for the word ‘decomposing’ conjures up all things rotten and putrid.
A conservatory can be a great addition to any home, providing many wonderful conservatory uses. But traditional roofing can be difficult to maintain and there are many factors that could cause a decomposing conservatory.
If this is the current state of your conservatory, you will want to read on to see what can be done before it gets too bad. Plus, we’ll list the benefits of considering a conservatory roof replacement for you and your family to enjoy for many years to come.
How do I know if my conservatory is decomposing?
When you have a decomposing conservatory roof, you may experience dead flies, spiders, insects, dark patches or a constant damp smell.
All of which you don’t want!
Whether you have a polycarbonate or glass conservatory roof or even a solid roof conservatory; there are a few things you should look out for as tell-tale signs that you may have a decomposing conservatory.
- Look for mould and mildew on the surface
Stachybotrys, one of the most common and recognizable types of mould found in indoor environments, is a greenish-black mould that is often referred to as “black mould” or “toxic mould” due to its appearance. This type of fungus is very common in a poorly ventilated solid roof conservatory or humid environment and can cause terrible illnesses.
- Look for any cracks or holes in the surface
You’d think that a leaking conservatory roof would be obvious. Yet, sometimes small cracks, holes and openings between seals can go undetected allowing water damage to add to your decomposing conservatory problem.
This article uncovers more common conservatory roof problems and solutions, and the consideration of a conservatory roof replacement with a Guardian Warm Roof.
When you convert your conservatory roof, you will have a clear, useable, and ventilated space with unlimited conservatory uses.
Why should I replace my conservatory roof?
For us, getting rid of flies, spiders and insects is enough of a reason to replace a decomposing conservatory roof!
But for justifiable reasons, your conservatory roof goes through a lot of wear and tear over the years.
Wind, sun, rain, snow, and other natural elements can create a lot of damage to your glass or polycarbonate conservatory roof. Eventually leading to leaks and water damage in your home.
Subpar materials used for some solid roof conservatory structures also do not escape weathering.
Therefore, it’s important to replace your conservatory roof as soon as you notice any signs of damage or deterioration.
Reasons why you should replace your conservatory roof:
- It will save you money in the long run by avoiding further damage to your home.
- You will be saving energy by having an insulated conservatory, keeping your heat inside.
- You will be creating a more comfortable environment for you and the family by providing a better space with more conservatory uses.
