Certified Thatch Fire Protection
Protect Your Property, Your People, and Your Insurance Cover.
Why Fire Protection?
Untreated thatch is a significant fire risk. Many insurers and residential estates require proof of SANS 10407 compliant fire retardant treatment before issuing or renewing cover. Certified fire protection reduces risk to your property and the people in it, and keeps you compliant with estate and insurance requirements.
Lower Insurance Premiums
Certified fire protection can reduce your insurance risk rating and premiums on thatch-roofed properties.
SANS 10407 Compliant
Our application process and SABS-approved retardants meet the national SANS 10407 standard in full.
Protects Against Fungal Decay & Pests
The treatment process also helps protect thatch from fungal decay and pest damage, extending its lifespan.
How It Works
Site Inspection
We assess your roof structure, thatch condition, and access requirements before any work begins.
Application of SABS-Approved Fire Retardant
Retardant is applied to both the interior and exterior of the thatch for full coverage.
Certificate Issued
Once application is complete, you receive a certificate for insurance and estate compliance purposes.
Re-application Reminder
We remind you when re-application is due — typically every 3–5 years — to keep your cover valid.
