10 installation tips for the Wendland roof system

The Wendland roof system is a high-performing conservatory roof system. It is compatible with both replacement roof projects and new-build conservatories. At TDK Trade Frames, we offer an in-house Wendland roof manufacturing service and supply these high-quality roof systems to installers across South West England.

We also offer glazing installers professional advice on how to install the Wendland conservatory roof. We fully understand that each installation project is different, however, here are 10 Wendland roof installation tips which apply to all Wendland roof installation projects.

Wendland roof system installation advice

At the beginning of the installation, do not fix the frames in place. Instead, temporarily pin the frames to the house wall to allow the conservatory to float.
Check all components before fitting.
Ensure you have all the correct tools and fixings to complete the installation.
Use the correct sealant when sealing the roof. For roofs with Conservaglass use an MS Polymer sealant. For standard sealed units use a low modulus neutral cure brand of silicone.
Check that the dwarf wall or plinth is completely even on all sides prior to installation.
Check that the glazing bars are fitted with anchor clips.
Attach glazing bar end cap fixing blocks before any roofline is installed.
Ensure that the frame is completely secure before commencing any glazing.
When inserting the glazing between the rafters ensure that it is centralised.
Complete the installation with any box gutters.
