We can improve the character and value of you’re property with thatch roofing that will last you year after year. The following is a list of the specifications and standards that we uphold for each of our clients. We regard the quality of grass one of the most important aspects of the thatching process. This ensures good compaction, density and prevents water penetrating the grass. Grass reeds exceeding 4mm are not suitable for thatching. A well compacted thatch ensures a good, dense thatch which will eventually ensure a longer life span.All grass used is winter cut, ensuring a good quality grass. The diameter of the poles increase as the span becomes wider. The Cape Reed with the varnished poles compliment each other giving it a superior appearance. We measure the floor area from overhang to overhang, calculate normal floor area and then multiply that with 1.45 (the average angle of a thatch roof).
