Noise, heat and light levels within a building with a translucent roof 3, such as a conservatory or sunroom, are reduced by the use of an external cover 1. The cover may comprise stranded tufts of plastic, as found in artificial turf or grass, anchored to a flexible backing material. Alternatively the cover may be formed from a mesh of resilient, flexible fibres. Both options cushion the impact of raindrops on the roof, thus reducing the levels of noise generated. The cover may be retrofitted to the existing building structure using a double sided sealing strip. A clip for attaching a cover and a method of fitting a cover are also claimed. |
