NU-Thatch™ is a revolutionary thatch rejuvenation system that takes the hassle out of general thatch maintenance and also makes old thatch look as good as new!
Our thatch rejuvenation system removes the need for future combing by preserving and protecting the thatch from the elements. This not only keeps thatch looking good but also prolongs its life ten fold!
Because NU-Thatch™ fully preserves the roof surface, dust and particles that cause allergies can’t penetrate the thatch and drop down into the space below.
The NU-Thatch™ system prevents drips and leaks in thatch and prevents grass from slipping out as well as sagging.
We apply NU-Thatch™ at a fraction of the cost of rethatching. In addition, our system removes the need for future thatch combing!
The chemicals used in the NU-Thatch™ system are safe for people as well as pets. However, they repel birds and insects from infesting and damaging the thatch due to their unattractive taste.
10 year maintenance warranty that can be extended to 25 years with annual inspections and preventative maintenance!
Fire retardancy certificate can also be extended with the maintenance guarantee.
NU-Thatch™ is available in thatch gold and burnt brown.
The Nu-Thatch™ system is applied by Cosmo-Dec Everlasting Coatings and approved applicators.
This involves applying four specialized components to the exterior of the thatch and a single component to the interior of the thatch.
How long does NU-Thatch™ last and what about maintenance
Once applied, Nu-Thatch™ will literally last for decades.
Maintenance of the thatch is minimum. Annual inspections as well as touch ups ensure the thatch stays fresh and golden in its colour.
The thatch will not decompose, turn black, crumble or oxidize, as long as inspections and touch-ups are performed.
This routine procedure ensures that damage due to severe weather, hail, birds, monkeys, or other unforeseen events can be taken care of before the problem becomes more complex.
The thatch roof will always look new. Nu-Thatch™ treated grass is practically indistinguishable from new thatch grass.
This treatment will result in never again having dust problems on the inside of the thatch in future. The process takes care of insects, mould, fungus, algae, moss and damp.
No need for combing, re-layering, inserting plugs or heaven forbid, rethatching, nor installing tiles. Say goodbye to difficult to fix thatch leaks. What`s more Nu-Thatch™ is substantially less expensive than other solutions.
In addition, It comes with built in thatch fire retardancy via our accredited Fire-Guard™ technology for which certificates are issued.
These are issued every 5 years in accordance with industry standards and accepted by insurance companies.
This service is also offered in all parts of South Africa.
