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.
