"I want to sincerely thank you, Tommy & Teige so much for the brilliant job you did at Rockhaye. It was obvious from the beginning that all of you take enormous pride in your craftsmanship, which was reflected in the care and attention to detail displayed and advice given.
I still stop at the bridge and look up at my thatch with pride, it is beautiful.
I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending you to anyone contemplating re-thatching their home"

Please feel free to contact us about your thatch - we're here to help.
“Every project starts with understanding how the roof should feel within it's environment. I’ve spent over 30 years working with thatch and I still enjoy it just as much as I did when I started. Most of my work comes from people who care deeply about their homes — and want things done properly, without shortcuts.”
Whether it's a full re-thatch, ridge, or routine maintenance and repair, our focus is on doing the job properly. We use methods that have stood the test of time and materials that suit each building.
We take time to understand what your roof needs and you honest, straightforward advice even if that means nothing needs doing just yet. Many of our clients use us because they know we’ll treat their homes with respect and deliver workmanship they can trust.
We’re proud to help keep this traditional craft alive, and to be involved in work that includes thatched homes, community projects and collaborations with designers and architects.
"Mark and his team were incredible — experienced, charming, and genuinely passionate about thatching, having them on site was an utter delight from start to finish. Would highly recommend."
