Thatched roof

Coatings with a cane called thatch reed been performed for centuries in Western Europe, America, Africa and Japan. Nowadays thatch can meet not only on traditional, old roofs, but also newly designed homes with a high standard. Thatch as cover for natural and ecological perfectly meets today's expectations and in no way inferior to other communal roof coverings. Roofing uses a one-year, selected cane. Expertly placed on the roof can survive up to 80 years. Well-made thatched roof never leaks - even with the strong rainstorms leaking only to a depth of 2 - 3 cm. The rain is not noise hitting the roof thanks to the acoustic isolation that comes from cane. With thick roofing 30 - 40 cm can eliminate additional attic insulation is due to thermal insulation cane. Reed during the growth in rhizomes gathers waxy and silica mostly in the bottom of the stem. Thanks to rigid and woody ends of the reeds are difficult to ignite. In addition, reed roofs can be impregnated from the outside means not wypłukiwanym by water (eg. Prenova or Magma Firestop) Such impregnation also protects the roof from accidental arson, lichen, moss, and the aging of the roof. The completion of the roof ridge is most often performed ridges heather. Chimneys in the roofs of the cane for the function of a ventilation function as aesthetic, and their shape, length and place of arrangement should be considered, above all, we must remember that the chimney should extend beyond the coverage of cane a minimum of 60 cm. Such a design roof guarantees the fulfillment of all the requirements of modern construction, both in terms of ventilation, energy savings and safety of anti-fire.
