Converting Your Existing Thatch to Harvey Thatch Tile: A Durable, Low-Maintenance Roofing Solution
At Ginindza Construction, we specialize in offering modern and innovative roofing solutions to clients who want to enhance the durability, aesthetic appeal, and performance of their traditional thatched roofs. One of the services we proudly offer is the conversion of existing thatch roofs to Harvey Thatch Tiles, which are placed on top of the existing thatch structure. This transformation is ideal for homeowners looking to maintain the natural beauty of thatch while upgrading to a more durable, fire-resistant, and low-maintenance roofing option.
How Does the Conversion Process Work?
Converting a traditional thatch roof to Harvey Thatch Tiles requires professional expertise to ensure that the new tiles are securely and effectively installed. At Ginindza Construction, we follow a meticulous and structured approach to make sure that the conversion is carried out flawlessly:
1. Initial Assessment & Thatch Maintenance
Before starting the conversion, our team conducts a thorough inspection of your existing thatch roof. We assess its condition, checking for any signs of damage or wear. During this phase, we also perform essential thatch maintenance by combing through the grass and ensuring that the thatch is in good shape for the Harvey Thatch Tiles to be added.
Cleaning and Combing the Thatch: The existing thatch is carefully combed and reworked to ensure that it’s level, secure, and in a healthy state. This step helps prepare the thatch for the installation of the tiles and provides a stable base for the new roof.
2. Installation of Harvey Thatch Tiles
Once the thatch is prepared, we begin the installation of the Harvey Thatch Tiles. These tiles are designed to be placed directly on top of the existing thatch, providing a durable, weather-resistant surface that enhances the lifespan of your roof.
Tile Placement: The tiles are carefully arranged in a way that mimics the natural look of a thatched roof but with all the added benefits of modern technology.
Securing the Tiles: We secure the tiles to the thatch structure using advanced techniques, ensuring that they stay in place, even during harsh weather conditions.
3. Final Inspection & Clean-Up
After the tiles are installed, we conduct a thorough inspection to ensure that the roof is sealed properly and that all tiles are securely in place. Any finishing touches are made to ensure that the roof not only performs well but also looks great. Finally, we clean up the area to leave your property spotless.
