Simply Thatch are a professional thatched roof consultant who are able to cover the United Kingdom offering our expertise to both domestic and commercial clients.

What is Involved in the Consultation?
As part of our service, we will conduct an in-depth survey of the thatched roof in question to asses the work needed. At any stage of the project we can offer our expert advice to help you with any queries you may have. We will look beyond the aesthetics of the thatched roof to evaluate the condition and then make our assessment.
Different Types of Thatched Roof
There are a few different types of thatching materials used in the thatching industry, all of them have advantages and disadvantages.
Reed Roof Thatching
Reed thatching is a popular choice for properties new and old, due to its durability compared to other thatching materials and its long life. Reed roofs are one of the types of thatched roof in the UK, meaning we have plenty of experience working with them. Reed thatching lasts for well over 20 years if properly cared for, even longer times can be achieved with regular maintenance.
Long Straw Thatching
Long straw thatching is often used on older historical buildings, which are more than often listed. This type of thatching is trickier than most and therefore they are often refused by other thatching companies. We have plenty of experience with long straw thatching and historical buildings, so if you have a listed building then contact us and we’ll se what we can do.
Straw Roof Thatching
Straw thatched properties have been a traditional feature of the UK countryside for many years. These roofs have a picturesque appearance with makes them attractive and very popular. As well as this aesthetically appealing appearance, straw roof thatching is waterproof and insulates effectively against cold weather. UV protection is also provided in the summer months.
