What is a Leka Solid Conservatory Roof?
With a Leka Warm Roof, structural ring beams, rafters, and ridges are fitted to your existing conservatory window frames. These sheets offer unique thermal properties to help keep the heat inside your home and can be finished with a thin, elegant plaster before painting. This system boasts an impressive U-Value rating of 0.15, so it can keep your home temperature-regulated all year round.
Insulated Celotex sheets are fitted throughout the Leka Warm Roof-another measure to increase thermal efficiency in your Kent conservatory. Next, a breathable membrane is applied to the weatherproof exterior boards, so rainwater flows through into the gutter system. This helps weatherproof your extension, preventing expensive problems such as leaks and mould. Your new roof is then finished with durable roof tiles in the colour and finish of your preference.
What Are The Benefits of a Leka Solid Roof?
Leka Warm Roofs is the only system in the UK to use glass-reinforced plastic, commonly referred to as GRP. GRP is lightweight yet structurally sound, strong enough to hold up the insulation and tiling in a Leka roof system.
GRP is a superior alternative to more traditional roofing materials. It's not at risk of cold bridging, sweating, or condensation like aluminium. GRP is also immune to wood worm, moisture absorption, and potential rotting like timber or wood products.
Competitor products can weigh up to 40% more than a Leka Warm Roof system, causing unnecessary strain on the delicate walls of your Kent conservatory. Choose the better roofing system and call Warm Division Roofs to see if a Leka Warm Roof is right for you.
No Planning Permissions Needed
Upgrading your roof from an older roofing system to a Leka Warm Roof system doesn't typically require planning permission.
Leka Warm Roofs are MFA certified, so they automatically comply with building regulations. This eliminates a step from the construction process and streamlines your installation. A new roof wouldn't change the existing layout of your conservatory, making new permissions unnecessary. However, we do recommend that you check with your local council in Kent before beginning installation.
Thermally Efficient Conservatory Roofs
The Leka solid conservatory roof system boasts industry-leading energy efficiency. Competing products just can't compare with their U-Value. For context, U-Values measure how much heat is retained or passed through a material, and lower ratings indicate that the material is thermally efficient and retains more heat.
Leka Warm Roofs have a U-Value of 0.15, which means that they lose less heat than other roofing systems. This is especially important because it means your Kent home will need less energy to regulate its temperature, potentially saving money on energy bills.

How Does A Leka Solid Conservatory Roof Replacement Work?
The innovative Leka roofing system, is made from thermally efficient, lightweight material, which means we do not have to make any changes to the base of your conservatory.
Here our step by step guide, shows the 5 step process.
Stage 1 - Installing The Rafters
The first stage of the build is adding Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP) rafters, to the existing conservatory window frames. This includes a GRP structural ring beam, rafters and ridge.
Stage 2 - Installing Internal Boards
Next, the waterproof, thermal, Leka internal boards are installed underneath the GRP rafters.
Stage 3 - Adding Celotex Thermal Insulation
Celotex conservatory roof insulation panels are then added allowing a 15mm gap from the internal sheets.
Stage 4 - Installing Outer Sheets
Next, the load-bearing, insulated outer sheets are added. These ensure less roofing bars and more thermal efficiency.
Stage 5 - Adding Tiles
Finally, a high-grade breathable membrane is installed, carrying through into the gutter system, and then the roof is finished with light weight tiles or slate.
