The Qualities of an Ideal Synthetic Thatch Roof
Understanding Why Synthetic Thatch Roofs with Reduced Warranties Can Cause Problems for Your Company
Artificial thatch roofing solutions have become highly sought-after, particularly at leisure locations and recreational hotspots. Offering low maintenance requirements, prolonged service life, straightforward setup, and improved value for money, these roofs are appealing to project owners who prefer them over natural thatch. Whether used for seaside huts, adding charm to themed venues, complementing scenic environments, or completing high-end properties, synthetic thatch roofs are leaving an enduring impression.
While selecting faux thatch may be a progressive choice for resort operators, it is vital to prioritise purchasing authentic, high-quality products with extensive warranties. The tactic of tempting customers using discounts is a common tradition in the business world, and the artificial thatch industry is no different.
It’s best to steer clear of market players providing synthetic thatch roofs at bargain rates but with shorter warranties. Let’s explore how your property, and potentially your customer trust, can face trouble when you go for an artificial thatch roof with a smaller assurance period:
Water Seepage Can Become a Nightmare
A limited warranty often means that the roofing quality is poor, needing regular repair. Adding new roofing layers involves taking off existing thatch and securing the new roofing over the support structure. Any loose fittings during installation could trigger moisture issues, causing dampness and causing financial strain. Additionally, air gaps allow wind to pass through. Failing to address them can upset guests, tarnish your brand image, and affect profitability.
Structural Weakness
A limited guarantee signals regular refurbishments, leading to an increase in the number of screw holes in your support frame. Over time, this can undermine the strength, potentially demanding expensive fixes or complete overhauls. Ignoring wear and tear poses safety concerns, as guests may be reluctant to rest or relax under a thatch roof supported by a fragile frame, worrying about its safety.
Inferior Raw Materials
In order to compensate for the reduced selling price and narrow profit margins, manufacturers prefer recycled materials that are essentially waste discarded by other countries. As a result, low-quality materials are often incorporated into plastic thatch panels, leading to reduced strength and poor structural reliability. Ultimately, this can hurt your profitability of your business.
Just Hollow Promises…
Vendors with limited coverage often avoid giving written assurances to avoid legal obligations. At best, they might verbally convince clients to customers before the sale, which cannot be upheld in disputes. If any post-sales issues arise, you may be left helpless.
