What TCR (DERBY) LIMITED does

TCR (Derby) Limited, trading as TCR Derby (and also as Trade Conservatory Roofs), is a UK-based fabricator and supplier of conservatory roofs, flat roofs, skylights, roof lanterns, extensions, and garden rooms. Operating from a single manufacturing site at 29a Great Northern Road, Derby, the company produces an in-house portfolio spanning four core conservatory roof systems (Glass Roof, Livinroof, Ultraroof, and Warmer Roof), the Wendland Glass Roof, three lantern variants (Wendland Lantern, Stratus Lantern, Flat Skylight), flat roof extensions, garden rooms, and the hup! modular extension system. Its manufacturing approach centers on pre-cut, fitter-friendly components with features such as ridge locks, glazing bars, and click-fit frames designed to reduce on-site installation time, supported by a downloads portal of technical brochures and installation guides.

The company's go-to-market is dual-channel and trade-weighted. Its primary customers are trade partners — installers and builders — across Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire, Birmingham, Coventry, Milton Keynes, and most of the UK, supplied directly with technical support, brochures, and guidance. A secondary channel serves end homeowners via free instant online quotes and direct contact with the Derby sales team. Products are sold as one-time project purchases with bespoke fabrication that takes individual measurements, add-ons, and colour specifications into account; pricing is described as open and honest with instant online quotes available.

TCR Derby holds BSI ISO 9001 (quality management), BSI ISO 14001 (environmental management), and LABC (Local Authority Building Control) registrations, and claims over 70 years of combined industry experience across its team. It operates its own delivery fleet enabling nationwide distribution from the Derby base. The company is privately held with no disclosed investors, parent entity, or financial information, and the management team is not publicly listed.
