Conservatory roof replacement in Wembley

Two years of Wembley weather say a polycarbonate conservatory runs above 25°C for 1,460 waking hours a year, 12th of the 104 towns we model. An insulated panel roof fitted onto the existing frame brings it down to 447. Guide prices start at £3,000 for a small roof, fixed in writing after a free survey.

What Wembley weather does to a conservatory

Each square below is the average room temperature for one hour of one month, worked out from every hour of 2024 and 2025 at Wembley's coordinates. Switch between roofs to see the afternoon block of amber and plum shrink. Outside, July averaged 18.6°C and the warmest hour reached 33.3°C; inside a shut polycarbonate room the model's hottest hour was 49°C.

The hours you get back

A heater can rescue a chilly hour. Nothing cheap rescues a 31°C one. So the useful measure is how many waking hours stay at or under 25°C: in Wembley that is 3,653 a year under polycarbonate and 4,666 under an insulated panel roof, roughly 1,013 hours handed back.

The worst hours, above 30°C, fall from 688 to 82. A glass roof manages 845.

When the heat peaks in Wembley

June is the problem month here: 52% of its waking hours top 28°C under polycarbonate, 13% under panels. Spring and early autumn matter too, when the sun is still strong but nobody expects to open the doors.

Winter in Wembley

Winter here bottoms out in January at an average of 4.2°C (coldest hour -4.4°C). Keeping 19°C while the room is in use costs about £398 a year in electricity under polycarbonate and £341 under the panel roof, 1,513 against 1,296 kWh.

We would not sell the roof on that difference alone. The glass walls keep losing heat either way; what changes most is that the room stops cooking in summer and a smaller heater copes in winter.

Questions people ask

How hot does a conservatory get in Wembley?

In our model a south facing polycarbonate conservatory in Wembley averages 34°C at 3pm in July and peaked at 49°C over 2024 and 2025. With an insulated panel roof the July 3pm average is 26°C.

What does a new conservatory roof cost in Wembley?

A small insulated panel roof starts from £3,000, medium from £4,000 and large from £5,000, before extras such as roof lights. The survey is free and the price is fixed in writing.

Do you cover towns near Wembley?

Yes. We fit across Greater London, including Ruislip, Hounslow, Twickenham and Uxbridge. Each has its own page with local weather numbers.

Will a panel roof make my Wembley conservatory warmer in winter?

Somewhat. The roof loses far less heat, so the heater you need on a freezing evening drops from about 1.7 kW to 1.1 kW, but the glass walls still lose heat, so plan on heating in the coldest months.
