Thatch Roofing in Randburg

Thatching in Randburg

Randburg's suburbs — Northriding, Boskruin, Olivedale, Bromhof, and the complexes around Sundowner — are classic lapa territory. Thousands of homes here have a thatched braai or pool lapa built in the 1990s and 2000s, and many of those roofs are now at the age where owners face the choice between ongoing patching and a proper re-thatch.

Our rule of thumb for Randburg's older lapas: if the reed layer has thinned to the point where you can see the lattice from inside, or the ridge has washed down to its wire, re-thatching is more economical than repeated repairs. If the body of the roof is still thick and only the ridge or a valley has gone, a targeted repair buys you years. We'll tell you which situation you're in — for free, on site.

Thatch Roof Repairs in Randburg

We repair thatch roofs across Randburg: leaks after Highveld storms, hail-damaged ridges, bird damage, and sagging where old wire ties have rusted through. Randburg is a short trip from our Muldersdrift base, so repair call-outs are easy to schedule — and because we also do full re-thatching, we'll never sell you a patch job on a roof that actually needs more, or a re-thatch on a roof that doesn't.
