With years of experience, The Glass Room Company have installed and provided many Louvered roofs across Dorking. Louvered roofs also known as Louvered pergolas are outdoor framed structures that rotate allowing the roof to open and close. They are most commonly featured in restaurant, decks, hotels and large patios. Louvered roofs are constructed either as free-standing structures or added on to the side of an existing building over a deck or patio in most situations. Although pergolas are constructed to provide protection from the sun and rain, they can also enhance the appeal of a property.

When built with a bioclimatic roof, pergolas are outdoor living spaces that can be enjoyed all through the summer in Dorking.
Bioclimatic roofs are contemporary versions of the traditional pergola/louvered roof. Bioclimatic roof feature adjustable light and shade levels. Bioclomatic pergola roofs are adjustable so you can let in or block out heat and light when you desire. There are four preset positions on the remotes that allows you to adjust the position of the Louvres.
If you’d like an enclosed room that can be used all year round, it can be achieved by attaching side shades, heating, sliding glass panels and lighting to The Glass Room Company’s bioclimatic louvred roofs. We can also install the roof either as a single standing structure or as part of your property. Whatever your requirement might be – a shaded area for your back door, garden or patio, we’ve got you covered!
Louvered roofs that extend over your property protecting a garden or a porch or patio should look like they were meant to be part of your property. The Glass Room Company’s catalogue of louvered roofs is quite extensive. We have design experts who have had many years of experience in designing pergolas to match our customer’s needs. Your outdoor space, be it a garden, patio or porch needs to be perfect, if you have an idea about what you want for your louvered roof, we have ideas about how to construct it and have the experience to install it.
We add a number of improvements to our louvered roofs. We design our roofs to have no leaks, exposed gutters or gaps for light. With full control over the blades of the louvered roof, you can control the amount of sunlight that gets into your outdoor space at any time. With that you can control the microclimate of your outdoor space, perfect for gardens.
Across Dorking, our louvered roofs are completely flexible in design and can be adaptable to fit whatever needs you have. We can add side glazing to the louvered roof, this can create a space that is weatherproof and can be used in any weather. There are a number of optional extras that are available, these include LED lighting, outdoor blinds and electric heating.
The louvered roof can have internal blade insulation added within the louvers, this can help retain heat during the cold months and it also helps to reduce the sound of the rain on the roof by 70%. Ventilating your outdoor space is important and should be done quickly and efficiently so we build our bioclimatic pergolas to rotate the louvers from 0 to 135 degrees easily. Even isolated parts of your garden can be enjoyed under the protection of our louvered roofs. We can install our louvered roofs to be free standing and this can make your outdoor space a haven of freedom you can enjoy.
The amount of protection you desire from our louvered roofs is completely up to you. You can vary the amount of sunlight coming in or even shut out the weather completely no matter the season. Is a planning permission necessary to install a louvered roof? Almost all properties in the UK have permitted development rights so installing a louvered roof is okay.The cost of construction depends on if your louvered roof is attached to your property or freestanding. We also have a number of options that could affect the cost. Extras added to the roof can be installed in stages. Phased out over time this can help spread the cost of the roof over a longer period. We can work to handle a big project on a limited budget. Call us for a brochure or consult with us on your project and we can come up with a design that works for your property.
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.
