Opting For a Gable Ended Conservatory? Is it a good idea?

The gable ended conservatory is in a league of its own with their stately and elegant and modern appearance. These conservatories are where the roof doesn't slope back to the centre from the front and it appears like a proper extension to your house. 

These are very Georgian in style, and suited to modern properties as well as period properties.

The Roof on a Gable Ended Conservatory

The Gable End roof of this type of conservatory is totally different and departs from the Victorian and Edwardian conservator styles. These gable ended conservatories have high pitched roofs that meet in a ridge in the centre; these pitched roofs can be glazed, polycarbonate and do look stunning, like a proper extension if designed with a solid tiled roof. If you are considering a tiled roof then you really need to take a look at our warm tiled roof page for more information.
