Why Synthetic Thatch Roofs with Shorter Coverage Periods Can Cause Problems for Your Company
Artificial thatch roofing solutions have become commonplace, particularly at tourist destinations and entertainment venues. Offering very little maintenance requirements, greater longevity, hassle-free fitting, and enhanced return on investment, these roofs are attractive to property developers who choose them instead of natural thatch. Whether gracing coastal cottages, elevating leisure parks, beautifying designer landscapes, or gracing private villas, synthetic thatch roofs are undeniably leaving their imprint.
While choosing synthetic thatch may be a smart choice for property owners, it is essential to focus on acquiring reliable and certified roofing with long-term guarantees. The practice of attracting buyers through cheap pricing is a longstanding tradition in the business world, and the thatching trade is no different.
Businesses must be cautious about vendors offering synthetic thatch roofs at cheap deals but with reduced coverage periods. Below is how your brand, and potentially your public image, can suffer when you invest in an synthetic roofing system with a limited warranty:
Keep an Eye on Roof Leaks
A shorter guarantee implies that the roofing quality is poor, demanding recurring fixes. Installing the new thatch involves dismantling previous layers and securing the new roofing over the support structure. Any loose fittings during installation could lead to leaks, causing dampness and causing financial strain. Additionally, air gaps allow wind to pass through. Leaving them unattended can upset guests, tarnish your brand image, and affect profitability.
Support Structure Concerns
A shorter warranty signals regular refurbishments, leading to an excessive structural punctures in your base structure. Over time, this can compromise the integrity, potentially causing the need for reinforcement or full replacements. Using a compromised frame poses risks, as visitors could fear to spend time under a thatch roof supported by a unstable base, especially during heavy winds or storms.
Compromised Manufacturing Quality
In order to recover from the cheap price tag and tight margins, vendors may use second-hand waste that are imported discards. As a result, poor-grade polymers are often used for producing synthetic roofing systems, leading to unsatisfactory performance and decreased longevity. Ultimately, this can damage your operational returns of your venture.
Empty Assurances and No Accountability
Manufacturers of products with reduced warranty terms often refuse formal guarantees to bypass accountability. At best, they might verbally convince clients to customers before the sale, which cannot be upheld in disputes. If any after-sales concerns arise, you may be left helpless.
