WE LOVE RECEIVING FEEDBACK FROM OUR CUSTOMERS. 

Below, is a case study from one of our customers who recently purchased our Terracotta Red Tiles for a Lean-To conservatory. We offer our granulated tiles in five different colours and offer three ranges of smooth tiles also known as our budget tiles due to the cheaper price tag. These can be found on our website also.

The customer 'JS' used our tiles to transform one of his customers lean to conservatories from a flat roof to a pitched roof. 

HERE IS WHAT THE CUSTOMER JS SAID ABOUT THE PROCESS.

We have been lucky enough to receive some before and after images of this roof transformation. 

Before

As you can see the lean to conservatory roof has a low pitch, our recommended minimum pitch is 10 degrees. So, after speaking with this customer he wanted to go ahead with our lightweight roofing system so came up with the idea of raising the pitch to the recommended 10 degrees 

After

This customer used our granulated terracotta red tiles.

Our lightweight tiles have been used to a lower pitch of 7 degrees however, our 25 year guarantee will not be valid for anything below the recommended pitch. Our director has used our tiles on his lean to conservatory at his home and is happy with the rainfall flow of them. He has not had any complaints with the shallow pitch.  

 

The directors lean to conservatory with the shallow pitch can be seen under the ‘first application of our opaque tiles’ blog on our website.

How amazing does this Lean-to conservatory look with our LightWeight Roofing System?
