At Ruben The Thatcher, we provide complete thatching and roofing services designed to protect your property, enhance its beauty, and deliver long-lasting results. Whether you’re building a new structure or maintaining an existing roof, our team guarantees quality workmanship from start to finish.
We design and build custom thatch roofs for residential, commercial, and recreational spaces. Our construction process uses high-grade thatching grass and strong timber to create roofs that are durable, naturally beautiful, and built to last. From lapas to large lodge structures, we handle projects of all sizes.
Harvey Thatch is a modern roofing alternative that offers the appearance of natural thatch with improved weather resistance and minimal maintenance. It’s durable, secure, and suitable for both residential and commercial properties needing a longer-lasting solution.
Old thatch doesn’t always need a full replacement — it may simply need renewal. Our re-thatching service strengthens the existing roof, replaces worn areas, and restores its natural shape and durability. Ideal for aging roofs, storm damage, or roofs needing fresh reinforcement.
Regular brushing is essential for extending the life of your thatch roof. We clean, reshape, and compact your roof to ensure proper water flow, reduce wear, and keep your structure looking clean and uniform. This affordable service helps prevent bigger problems down the line.
Rhino Thatch is a premium synthetic option designed for clients who want the traditional look of thatch without frequent upkeep. It’s UV-resistant, fire-resistant, and incredibly durable — perfect for lodges, resorts, and entertainment areas.
We install Harvey Tile roofing systems that deliver a clean, modern, and durable finish. These lightweight steel tiles are weatherproof, long-lasting, and ideal for clients looking for a sleek alternative to traditional thatch.
Safety is our priority. We apply professional fire-retardant treatments to protect your thatch structure from fire hazards and comply with insurance requirements. This service significantly improves roof safety and peace of mind.
