Why Faux Thatch Roofs with Limited Guarantees Can Be Risky for Your Business
Faux thatch roof systems have become increasingly prevalent, particularly at tourist destinations and entertainment venues. Offering very little maintenance requirements, greater longevity, simple installation, and enhanced return on investment, these roofs are attractive to property developers who select them rather than natural thatch. Whether beautifying beach cafés, enhancing theme parks, beautifying designer landscapes, or gracing private villas, synthetic thatch roofs are undeniably leaving their imprint.
While choosing synthetic thatch may be a forward-thinking choice for property owners, it is imperative to focus on acquiring reliable and certified roofing with solid coverage. The trend of attracting buyers through cheap pricing is a longstanding tradition in the business world, and the thatching trade is no different.
You should avoid vendors offering synthetic thatch roofs at cheap deals but with reduced coverage periods. Below is how your brand, and potentially your public image, can suffer when you invest in an synthetic roofing system with a limited warranty:
Keep an Eye on Roof Leaks
A shorter guarantee implies that the roofing quality is poor, demanding recurring fixes. Installing the new thatch involves dismantling previous layers and securing the new roofing over the support structure. Any loose fittings during installation could lead to leaks, causing dampness and causing financial strain. Additionally, air gaps allow wind to pass through. Leaving them unattended can upset guests, tarnish your brand image, and affect profitability.
Structural Weakness
A shorter warranty signals regular refurbishments, leading to an increase in the number of screw holes in your base structure. Over time, this can compromise the integrity, potentially demanding expensive fixes or extensive refurbishment. Ignoring wear and tear poses danger, as people may avoid to stay near a thatch roof supported by a vulnerable support, fearing instability or collapse.
Substandard Material
In order to offset the cheap price tag and thin profitability, makers opt for reused raw materials that are unfit industrial leftovers. As a result, poor-grade polymers are often applied to create synthetic roofing systems, leading to early deterioration and reduced strength or stability. Ultimately, this can negatively impact the financial performance of your property.
False Claims Without Commitment
Producers with reduced Artificial Thatch Roof warranty terms often skip documentation to bypass accountability. At best, they might offer verbal assurances to customers before the sale, which cannot be upheld in disputes. If any after-sales concerns arise, you may be left helpless.
