Centurion notes on materials & supplies
Grass and poles reach Centurion easily from the N1 and R21, and suppliers north of Pretoria and in Midrand deliver here regularly. Estates often ask for a <a href="/thatch-fire-retardant/">fire retardant</a> on thatch with a certificate, so look for an applicator who issues one. A sealer can be added on newer roofs; ask whether it changes the colour, as some guidelines specify the finish.
Who builds with thatch in Centurion
Centurion is estate country. Between the N1, the R21 and the Ben Schoeman, security estates have gone up one after another, and many of them allow or even favour thatch on houses, clubhouses and pool lapas. That means HOA rules come first: roof pitch, ridge style, the colour of the cement ridge and where a lightning mast may stand are often written into the architectural guidelines. Older suburbs such as Eldoraigne and Lyttelton have their own garden lapas, and the Irene smallholdings bring in farm style venues. Thatchers from both Pretoria and Johannesburg work here, so you can usually get more than one quote. Storm season is long, and estates often ask for proof of lightning protection.
Typical thatch-look roof tiles requests in the area come from:
- Estate homes and HOAs: roof changes that need HOA approval and must keep the street's thatch look
- Wedding venues, schools and churches: a tiled hall roof where fire rules or the insurer ask for a change
- Builders, architects and developers: a thatch-look roof on a new design, priced with battens and underlay
