New Concept Replacement Conservatory part 2

[@roxiesworldoffun2135]

Where can I buy these roof panels and what are they called. Thank you.

[@Ihsan-1983]

Great job 👏 well done

[@JemTheWire]

Great video as usual. You've got a few blow double glazed units there. I guess they will be on your 'to do' list. Perhaps another video? How to swap out blown DG units. lol.

Thanks Mark yes its good to have help

Great video. Liked & subscribed.

[@dmgladden]

Thank you very much

Good morning. I’m replacing my conservatory roof the same way as you have done. I have. Question, is there a reason why you fixed the panels from the underside and not above, to the supporting timber against the house and not from above down into the timber. I have to work in a small depth of 400mm from the underside of my extension guttering to the top of the conservatory window units. With the length of the conservatory being 3.4m it leaves me with just about a 4 degree drop sitting on a 3” frame work around the top of the conservatory window units. Thanks and regards James

[@dmgladden]

The over hang of the gutter box is about 250mm and I am up tight to it

[@dmgladden]

If you can do from above it would be better

[@stgileschurch-coventry]

@@dmgladden Hi. Thanks David. We just have a gutter bellow the extension tiles and a facia board at the moment. The hope is to get the 80mm / 110mm in all. Under on top of the conservatory window unit and still have a decent degree of drop over a length of 3.5 m (I think) Do you happen to know what degree of drop you have. My concern is that I may just’ about get a 4 degree. I understand from talking to the insulated panel store that this is the recommended drop.

Hi David can I ask did the new roofing make the conservatory usable all year round, Cheers Paul

[@dmgladden]

Yes very much so we even removed all adjoining doors

[@tonyhanson9848]

I'm very impressed with what you've achieved, especially as I am being quoted £8000 to £13000 for a new roof for a similar size lean to conservatory roof!! I have two questions: One is, I am having difficulty locating the Kingspan roofing that you have used. All the ones I have looked at have small ridges on the underside too which your don't appear to have. If you could let me know the actual product name or code that would be very helpful. Secondly, I didn't see how you waterproofed the roof where it butts up to the wall of the bungalow. Have you just relied on the eaves overhang or have you fitted lead flashing?

[@dmgladden]

@tonyhanson9848 hi Tony first thanks for the kind comment. Unfortunately, I don't have any more information on these sheets, all I did was look on ebay for the best I could find mostly off-cuts as thes sheets are normally 6+m long but as for the inside I do have some small profiles but I knew I was covering it with a inner ceiling so not a problem

[@Tiktok_Dont_Stop]

The roof sheets are kingspan composite panels 👍

[@smitcher]

Brilliant David. I was wondering why you were using the angle brackets at first but then realised that you can't drive the fixings down from above because of the house roof overhang and gutters. Looks great and took your weight no problem, even before fixing the panels together. Will definitely be getting these for my garage roof - just need to find who will supply me. I didn't realise you were from Scotland too originally, if you don't mind me asking where are you located - North, Central or South is fine if you don't want to give your location away on here. Thanks again for your advice before on the other video!

[@smitcher]

Ah, thanks for that David, I wrote 'originally' but meant that I didn't 'initially' realise you were in Scotland because of the accent because these panels seem to be a bit easier to obtain the further south you go. I'm in Glasgow so hopefully I can obtain them at a decent price. Love your channel by the way and looking forward to Part 3 (if there is a part 3) where you trim out.

Hi David, you and i have exchanged comments before and wanted to get in touch. I have had to postpone my plan of replacing my P-shaped conservatory roof until next year. Couldn't find a carpenter willing to assist. It will give me ample time to get myself ready to attempt it myself. My P-shaped conservatory is 5000mm (5m) long along the wall and the widest span is 3080mm (3.08m) and narrows down to 1660mm (1.66m). A few questions for you: What size (thickness/width) wood planks did you use for the lean to wall bracing, secondly to get sufficient pitch for the rain water to drain, roughly how high should this be fitted above door and window frame on the exterior wall? Lastly when measuring the lenght (5m) how much space do I need to add for the overlapping of each 1m panel?

[@dmgladden]

Hi good you will have ago your self it's good fun. First when it cames to the well plate I was governed by the roof section that came with it. Pitch can be very slight to work just 25mm per meter but I went higher as I wanted the extra space inside. Over hang on the side is not needed but you can if you want for style on the run off edge it needs to be about 50mm clear to a low for the guter to work I cut back all under the top skin and capped it with a gutter board leaving 50mm out this worked very well. Hope this helps and good luck. David

[@bobreid3509]

Hi Dave. Missed the name of the product. Any suggestion for a supplier. Thanks

[@dmgladden]

Hi Bob this one is made by Kingspan but they are a few out there

[@clairesavoury9543]

Hiya would you be able to assist me with some questions on the roof please xx

[@raulcollantes779]

Great job, looks very straightforward and doesn't look too expensive. I want to do the same how can I get that type of roof?

[@dmgladden]

Hi Raul yes it is but takes some finding at the right price as the sheets come to big and as new very expensive i got on ebay but you just have to keep watching

[@NickD680]

@@dmgladden what make are the roof panels?

[@dmgladden]

@@NickD680 as I did say in the video they are Kingspan

[@martinlouden9005]

A great result david. And a promising apprentice by the look of things. What are you going to trim the outside with?

[@dmgladden]

Thanks Martin i guess you have your answer by now sorry but thanks for following this one

[@premsworldfamily6616]

how did it cost you pal for materials and could you recommend where from? i was quoted today to replace the roof and insulate - £6800!! labour only £4800!

[@dmgladden]

I bought the sheets off a guy on eBay as off cuts and the whole job cost me under£1000

[@MegaWilson82]

Great video and good to see the young chap working so hard. One question though. Aren't you worried that the rain will eventually find its way through the gap between where the pieces of the roof overlap each other?

[@dmgladden]

Hi no not at all its the way it as been on the old roof and never a problem

[@matoko123]

Good viewing but there's no way I can find your Part 1?

[@dmgladden]

Hi first thanks for the good comment, now to try help, if you go to my playlist and find build a conservatory and it's the first video in that list,hope this hepsthankx for watching

[@matoko123]

@@dmgladden Thanks a lot, found it :) I did check your playlist but overlooked it the first time.

[@JohnnyMotel99]

I'm not convinced by insulated conservatory roofs. Generally, a regular conservatory roof does not impede light in the main living areas. Placing a solid roof on a conservatory will impede light and the living areas will become considerably darker inside. Then there is all that glass, unless something is done to improve the R value of the glass, the conservatory will still be cold.

[@simonlewis720]

I put a guardian conservatory roof on mine ,best thing we could have done,still lots of light and the temperature is just like being in your main house

[@handyjim]

nice one did you have a swarm of wasps next to your camera

[@dmgladden]

haha yes it does sound like that but as you know it was a very windy day and i was trying to get drone footage as it was fighting to say still

[@ianmelville1727]

what a load of crap that wont come with a building regulations certificate

[@dmgladden]

It's a diy home build that is made very clear from the start if your looking for regs look elsewhere I don't do them
