Thatched Gazebo Makeover

Thatch Gazebo Makeover

A beautiful view deserves a beautiful gazebo. The rotten thatch tiles on this picturesque gazebo were distracting from its elegant surroundings. Working from the owner's description and photos, we quoted for new tiles including their instillation. 

The roof structure beneath was still in good order, so we removed the tired old thatch tiles, cleaned down and applied new tiles. 

We carry a wide variety of tiles with different finishes and life spans to suit all tastes. They are all a directly replacement for original tiles. It is a fairly straightforward job for an experienced DIY'er. The old tiles simply unclip, and the new one's clip back on. If you do not fancy it, we can do the job for you, and clean up all the mess.

The work was completed to the client's original budget and the location left clean and tidy. The transformation was complete in just half a day!

All the owners had left to do was enjoy a relaxing prosecco, in the afternoon sun, by the sparkling river.

Thatched Film and TV Sets

Thatched architecture provides a portal into history and tradition for the viewer. Shaggy, handmade  thatch tells of Iron age round houses, hovels or Viking long houses. Shapely smooth curves, tightly clipped gables, and smart ridges are merchant’s houses or an imperial temple. Thatch offers action prompts too - As the battle rages, thatch burns really, really well !  We have helped many film and TV production weave stories with thatch.
