There are probably over 1000 thatchers working in the UK, many of whom use the title "Master Thatcher". Unfortunately, this designation is backed by no official training, qualification or specific guarantee of workmanship, and can be used by any person who takes a fancy to it! This is a great shame, because the term seems to indicate skill and prowess in the craft, which for the vast majority of thatchers will be the case, but on its own it is not a guarantee of either.Thatching is not exactly cheap (if it is, you have probably chosen the wrong firm) so it makes sense to do a little research on the chosen company or individual, and the best way of doing this is to seek out examples of their work.
You can Contact Thatchline Insurance to discuss home insurance for your thatched property, no obligation whatsoever. If you need help completing the form that's no problem - just get in touch and we'll walk you through it and make sure you get everything right first time. Is the property free from flooding and not in the vicinity of any rivers, streams or tidal waters?*
