Why Synthetic Thatch Roofs with Limited Guarantees Can Spell Trouble for Your Business
Faux thatch roof systems have become commonplace, particularly at tourist destinations and entertainment venues. Offering low maintenance requirements, prolonged service life, straightforward setup, and improved value for money, these roofs are preferred to resort planners who favour them compared to 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 adopting synthetic roofing may be a smart choice for resort operators, it is essential to ensure you buy genuine, premium-grade materials with comprehensive protection. The habit of drawing clients with bargain rates is a old tradition in the business world, and the synthetic roofing sector is no different.
You should avoid vendors offering synthetic thatch roofs at low costs but with limited guarantees. Let’s explore how your property, and potentially your brand reputation, can be at risk when you opt for an faux thatch roof with a shorter guarantee:
Keep an Eye on Roof Leaks
A shorter guarantee implies that the roofing quality is poor, needing regular repair. Replacing worn thatch involves removing the old one and mounting a new layer over the base. Any missed screw holes during installation could result in seepage, causing roofing failures and escalating project costs. Additionally, air gaps allow wind to pass through. Leaving them unattended can upset guests, tarnish your brand image, and lower sales.
Weakened Framework
A reduced assurance term suggests more frequent replacements, leading to an accumulation of drilled points in your support frame. Over time, this can undermine the strength, potentially demanding expensive fixes or complete overhauls. Ignoring wear and tear poses danger, as people may avoid to spend time under a thatch roof supported by a unstable base, concerned about falling debris.
Low-Grade Components
In order to balance the lower retail cost and minimal returns, some producers resort to reprocessed plastics that are essentially waste discarded by other countries. As a result, cheap inputs are often incorporated into faux thatch covers, leading to early deterioration and decreased longevity. Ultimately, this can affect your bottom line of your resort.
Just Hollow Promises…
Vendors with shorter guarantees often refrain from providing written commitments to evade responsibility. At best, they might make spoken promises to customers before the sale, which offer no legal backing. If any quality disputes arise, you may find yourself without any recourse.
