Preserve your thatched roof
We offer specialist assistance with thatched roof repairs and re-thatching to ensure the longevity and structural integrity of these unique roofing systems.
Thatched Roof Repairs
Inspection
We can perform a thorough inspection of the roof to assess its condition and identify any areas of damage, wear, or deterioration.
Patching
We will repair minor damage such as holes, tears, or loose thatch by patching the affected areas with matching thatch material, ensuring a smooth finish.
Ridge Rebuilding
Our team can also rebuild or reinforce the ridge of the thatched roof, where the layers of thatch meet and form the apex, to prevent water infiltration and maintain structural integrity.
Re-Thatching
Preparation
Before re-thatching, Red Fish Roofing removes the old thatch material and cleans the roof structure to ensure a clean and stable base for the new thatch.
Material Selection
We source high-quality thatch material, such as water reed or combed wheat reed that matches the original style and quality of the roof.
Layering
Our team of thatchers will lay the new thatch material onto the roof structure, starting from the eaves and working upwards towards the ridge. We use traditional techniques to create a tight and weatherproof thatch.
