Thatch Tiles
Modular thatch — faster to install, easier to maintain.
Modular Thatching
The Modern Take on Traditional Thatch
Thatch tiles are a modern take on traditional cape reed roofing. Pre-fabricated in a controlled environment and designed for rapid site installation, they deliver the warmth and character of natural thatch without the extended installation time of a hand-laid roof.
Ideal for extensions, gazebos, feature walls and outbuildings, thatch tiles can be cut to fit irregular shapes and are simple to replace if individual sections are ever damaged. This modular approach combines the elegance of traditional thatching with the practicality of modern construction methods.
