Built-In ventilation
With many unproven roof conversions, moisture can form inside the roof causing staining and mould growth to the internal plasterboard, leading to deterioration or even failure of the roof components. Guardian Roof is a ventilated roof, slots in the ring beam allow air circulation through the eaves.
In compliance with LABC / LABSS, the Guardian Roof is a ventilated roof. Slots in the ring and ridge beams allow air to flow freely through the roof thereby avoiding condensation and allowing any moisture to exit.
With many unproven roof conversions, moisture can form inside the roof causing staining and mould growth to the internal plasterboard, leading to deterioration or even failure of the roof components.
Building control approval for your peace of mind.
Under certain criteria, the Guardian Warm Roof System would be exempt from Building Control approval – however, we strongly recommend that approval always be sought.
But, as the Guardian Warm Roof System carries LABC /LABSS certification, the Building Control process should proceed faster, smoother and without complication.
Due to the high performance insulation and with Building Control approval, the Guardian Warm Roof System, may allow the removal of the wall between the house and conservatory, providing the flexibility to extend and enlarge an existing kitchen, living room or bedroom..
“We couldn’t really afford an extension but we wanted a conservatory that we could enjoy all year round, so when we heard about the Guardian Conservatory – it was an easy decision. One month later, I can only say that it’s given us the perfect room. Light, airy, quiet and comfortable.”
