It’s an issue of personal preference the choice between the look of a glazed or tiled conservatory roof. We can’t just sit and say that which is better than the other, however we can highlight the distinctions and benefits of the solid roof. These advantages are applicable to our own roofing system made of solid materials that we call Leka System. Leka System.
Seamless design
The primary advantage is the seamless the solid roof offers between the conservatory as a whole and the main structure.
A conservatory roof replacement could be an exact match to the tiled roof of your house. Leka conservatory roofs utilize high-performance, yet light engineered tiles that resemble slate and concrete in nearly every color. These Tapco slates and Metrotile cement imitation tiles look exactly like the real thing unless up on the roof.
This is a completely different style from the traditional conservatory roof that is covered in glazed. A roof that is glazed is ideal to fill the space with light but it’s not the best for design consistency. If you’re looking for the seamless look then a tiled roof is what you need.
Greater longevity
Leka System Leka System is designed to last longer than competing traditional build, fibreglass, polycarbonate and glass roofing systems. The frame is made of glass reinforced plastic and does not contain aluminum or timber used in the building. From the ladder system all the way to exterior sheets, as well as the coating for weatherproofing are made to last.
