Why Choose Our Thatch Fire Retardant?
Comprehensive Fire Safety
Our fire retardant significantly reduces the risk of ignition and slows the spread of flames. In the event of a fire, this added protection allows more time for evacuation and firefighting measures, making it a crucial layer of safety for any thatched property.
Eco-Friendly and Protective
Unlike harsh chemicals, our product is environmentally friendly while still delivering superior performance. It includes UV protection and fungicidal properties, helping your roof resist sun exposure, mildew, and dampness—without compromising the natural breathability of the thatch.
SABS-Compliant and Insurance-Approved
All our applications are fully compliant with South African building standards (SABS/SANS). Once treated, you’ll receive an official certificate valid for five years, recognized by insurers and often required to qualify for reduced premiums.
How Our Process Works
Inspection and Preparation
We begin with a detailed inspection to ensure the roof is compact and clean. Removing dust, debris, and mold ensures maximum absorption and long-lasting results.
Professional Application
Our team applies the thatch fire retardant internally and externally using high-pressure spray equipment. The treatment dries within one to two hours, depending on weather conditions, and immediately strengthens your roof’s fire resistance.
Certification and Guarantee
After application, Thatch Protection issues a formal certificate of treatment, valid for five years. This documentation is essential for compliance, insurance purposes, and peace of mind.
Additional Safety and Maintenance Tips
Maintain Roof Integrity
Regular compaction and servicing extend the life of your thatch and improve fire retardant performance.
Combine with Safety Features
For added protection, we recommend integrating lightning conductors, spark arresters on chimneys, and physical fire barriers where necessary.
