Repairs & protection in Kempton Park: local notes
Guesthouse owners usually need a <a href="/thatch-inspections/">thatch inspection</a> report for their insurer, covering the lapa's electrics, fire equipment and lightning protection. Masts near the airport should be discussed with the installer, who can check whether height rules apply. After storms, check the ridge and the weather side; hail can thin the thatch quickly on flat, open ground.
