With years of experience, The Glass Room Company have installed and provided many Louvered roofs across Wivenhoe. The big open outdoor frame that is featured often in restaurants, gardens, decks, hotels or a large patio is a louvered roof also known as a louvered pergola. These adjustable shelters are either freestanding, installed to the side of a property, or attached directly to an existing structure. The major function of a pergola is to offer shade. However, it is a feature that can improve the design of a property.

We design our louvered roofs to be flexible enough to adapt to your needs and fit your property in Wivenhoe. Adding side glazing to the louvered roof creates an enclosed outdoor space. This enclosed outdoor space can now be used no matter the weather. There are a number of extras that are optional but can be included. These are outdoor blinds, electric heaters and LED lighting.
To reduce the sound of the rain on the roof and also to help maintain the heat during the winter months, internal blade insulation can be added within the louvers. We construct our bioclimatic pergolas to rotate the louvers from 0 to 135 degrees easily and quickly in order to provide adequate ventilation to your outdoor space. Enjoy any part of your outdoor space. Our louvered roofs can be constructed to be freestanding and they can be deployed in any part of your outdoor space giving you the freedom to enjoy any part of it.

We love to entertain family and friends at our home and one of the main ways we like to do this is to cook with our outdoor pizza oven and enjoy sitting in our garden to eat. Over recent years we have used different parasols to try and provide some shade in the summer, but they never shaded everyone and were of no use in the rain.
The designAt first, The Glass Room Company liaised with the client over email and telephone to provide some initial concepts and details of the PergoTex textile roof system. The reason for us recommending the use of this system was because of the client’s need to shade a larger area, as well as provide rain protection.
