ROOF

The roof panels for the Regency Garden Room are manufactured using 44mm x 44mm joinery quality framework. The outside of the roof is constructed using 12mm marine plywood which is more resistant to moisture than standard ply. Beneath the marine plywood a breathable membrane is laid before the roof is insulated with 45mm blocks. Prior to fixing the internal kiln dried tongue and groove pine lining, a vapour barrier is fastened to the framework. Once the roof is in place on the structure the roof covering of the customer’s choice is fastened to the external 12mm marine plywood.

FLOOR

 The floor joists used for the Regency Garden Room are 75mm x 44mm tanalised timber. The floor is then fully insulated with a vapour barrier and the latest thermo-reflective insulation. The floor is then completed with 18mm plywood which forms a solid base for the customer to lay any floor covering of their own choice.

All the windows used in the Regency Garden Room range are manufactured by a nationally recognised company.

As standard all the opening windows are fitted with lockable casement stays and lockable casement fasteners on sashes. Fasteners are supplied in gold effect as standard. Also available in all windows are trickle vents for added ventilation and security.

DOORS

INSULATION

All Regency Garden Room are fully insulated, energy efficient buildings with flame-retardant additive expanded insulation.

This insulation is moisture resistant and it is also non-irritant hypoallergenic.

Each section of the Regency Garden Room is lined on the warm side with a vapour barrier. This barrier prevents condensation within the structure and helps to prevent mould and damp. This vapour barrier also adds to the general air tightness of the building.

The outer section of the structure is lined with a breathable membrane which allows air to circulate within the panels and helps prevent mould and damp.

All windows and doors are supplied with factory fitted, heavy duty weather strips.

INTERNAL LINING

Deluxe Weatherboard is a 22mm finished board machined from a high quality kiln dried Scandinavian board and has a much deeper mould than the standard board.

The Western Red Cedar Board is 12mm finished and ideal for either painting or having a clear finish applied for those that want to keep the natural beauty of this muti coloured timber.

ROOF TILES

Two styles of roof tiles are offered for the Regency Garden Room.

The heavy duty bitumen roof tiles are exceptionally weather resistant and are available in three colours, red, black and green.

The cedar shingles are fixed to the roof in panels partly tiled in the workshop. Tiles joining the panels together are fixed on site to ensure a continuous line of tiles therefore avoiding unsightly joints between the panels.

Prior to fixing the shingle panels, heavy duty mineral felts are attached to the roof panels to form a watertight seal. The shingles are finished in a high quality dark brown wood preservative.

FASCIAS

The two options available for this range are a formal, straight-edged fascia or a more informal wavy fascia. Both these styles can be used with either the bitumen tile option or the cedar shingle option.

GUTTERING

Guttering is available in three colours and can be chosen by the customer to complement the colour scheme of their Garden Room or to match existing guttering on buildings in near proximity to their Garden Room.
