Roofs Around Thatch
Thatch itself is a specialist trade. Waterproofing contractors usually deal with the flashings, gutters and flat or tiled sections where thatch meets other roofs.
- Junctions. Leaks are common where thatch meets walls, chimneys and flat roofs.
- Fire safety. Torch-on near thatch is risky, so cold-applied systems are often used instead.

Get Waterproofing QuotesWhat Affects the Quote
- Guest bookings. Work around occupied rooms may need phasing.
- System choice. Cold-applied systems near thatch can cost more than torch-on.
- Finishes. Retiling and restoring high-end finishes add cost.
- Pond size and shape. Complex shapes need more liner and labour.
Guest Houses and Holiday Homes
- Book in the quiet season. Plan roof and bathroom work when bookings are low and the weather is dry.
- Check empty homes. Leaks in homes that stand empty can go unnoticed for weeks.
- Keep a record. A maintenance log helps with insurance and future contractors.
Questions to Ask
- Which system will you use near the thatch, and why?
- Can work be phased around guest rooms?
- Who restores tiles and finishes?
- What guarantee is given in writing?
Waterproofing Franschhoek FAQs
Can torch-on be used near a thatch roof?
It is risky because of the open flame. Many contractors use cold-applied liquid or acrylic systems near thatch.
Can a guest bathroom be fixed quickly?
A regrout and reseal can be done in a day or two. A full membrane redo takes longer because of curing time.
Why is my garden pond losing water?
It may be a leak in the liner, at the edges or around the pump, or simply evaporation. A contractor can test for leaks.
Is yearly roof maintenance worth it?
Yes for larger homes and guest houses. Cleaning gutters and resealing small cracks costs less than repairing water damage.
