Hi, looking to make my rooftop more usable in the hot summer months. Does anyone have any decent recommendations for suppliers and installers of bioclimatic pergola.

Leroy Merlin are always a good starting point for most garden products to get a  cost to use as a comparison when looking at other companies. They have several different models on-line.

Rgds,

Hi

Sorry but that’s a fancy title for a brolly. I have no idea what you want but it sounds great. Please don’t take offence but it did put a smile on my face as did an Aqua Exercise coach not a swimming instructor.

I guess it depends what you hope to achieve as if you want to stay cool have you tried using a fixed shade with a rain curtain that when operated throws out a mist of cold water spray to keep you cool? The rain curtain can be fixed to most anything and you can put a timer on it too. 

I hope anything here helps or gives you a new tangent to think on. But I did like the fancy title.

Thanks for the suggestion. Its a bit more advanced than a brolly but yes a fancy name regardless.

Hi Charles 

Well I never! A fancy name for a fancy roof! It looks incredibly expensive too I guess that’s why it has this name to go with the price tag.

Joking apart I’ve seen similar as it was a solar panel system that followed the sun. This too moved along on a track system as per the advert. 

Sorry I can’t help but it looks impressive I hope you manage to find what you’re looking for.

Hi Charles 

Having put some thought into your problem I suddenly thought about using blinds that you could operate yourself. Even Venetian blinds would do as you can regulate the sun on your patio. As Leroy Merlin was mentioned here this may be your way forwards on obtaining a solution that won’t cost you a fortune.

I hope this is of some help

Like the titles also smiles eg: a "rain-curtain". ( another name for a legionella bacterial dispersal unit?)😂. V

Many thanks for your suggestions. Open to anything at this stage.
