Why Faux Thatch Roofs with Limited Coverage Periods Can Spell Trouble for Your Establishment
Synthetic thatch roofs have become widely popular, particularly at holiday attractions and resort zones. Offering minimal upkeep requirements, long-lasting durability, straightforward setup, and improved value for money, these roofs are preferred to resort planners who prefer them over natural thatch. Whether used for seaside huts, adding charm to themed venues, complementing scenic environments, or decorating residential villas, synthetic thatch roofs are leaving an enduring impression.
While selecting faux thatch may be a progressive choice for resort operators, it is vital to ensure you buy authentic, high-quality products with extensive warranties. The tactic of tempting customers using discounts is a common tradition in the business world, and the faux roofing market is no different.
It’s best to steer clear of market players providing synthetic thatch roofs at low costs but with limited guarantees. Here's how your property, and potentially your customer trust, can face trouble when you go for an artificial thatch roof with a smaller assurance period:
Be Cautious of Leakage Issues
A limited warranty often means that the quality of the thatching is below par, needing regular repair. Adding new roofing layers involves taking off existing thatch and replacing it on the support system. Any unsealed joints during installation could trigger moisture issues, causing dampness and raising long-term costs. Additionally, air gaps allow wind to pass through. Failing to address them can upset guests, tarnish your brand image, and affect profitability.
Support Structure Concerns
A limited guarantee signals regular refurbishments, leading to an increase in the number of screw holes in your support frame. Over time, this can undermine the strength, potentially demanding expensive fixes or complete overhauls. Ignoring wear and tear poses safety concerns, as guests may be reluctant to rest or relax under a thatch roof supported by a fragile frame, worrying about its safety.
Inferior Raw Materials
In order to compensate for the lower retail cost and narrow profit margins, manufacturers prefer recycled materials that are essentially waste discarded by other countries. As a result, low-quality materials are often incorporated into plastic thatch panels, leading to reduced strength and poor structural reliability. Ultimately, this can hurt your profitability of your business.
Just Hollow Promises…
Vendors with limited coverage often avoid giving written assurances to avoid legal obligations. At best, they might give informal commitments to customers before the sale, which hold no enforceable value. If any performance problems arise, you may have no resolution path.
