Why Faux Thatch Roofs with Lesser Guarantees Can Be Risky for Your Business
Faux thatch roof systems have become increasingly prevalent, particularly at resorts and hospitality spaces. Offering easy care requirements, greater longevity, simple installation, and better ROI, these roofs are attractive to business investors who select them rather than natural thatch. Whether adorning beachfront shacks, transforming amusement parks, accenting luxury landscapes, or fitting private retreats, synthetic thatch roofs are making a lasting mark.
While opting for artificial thatch may be a forward-thinking choice for business owners, it is imperative to get hold of reliable and certified roofing with solid coverage. The trend of attracting buyers through cheap pricing is a longstanding tradition in the business world, and the thatching trade is no different.
You should avoid vendors offering synthetic thatch roofs at cheap deals but with reduced coverage periods. Here's how your brand, and potentially your customer trust, can suffer when you go for an synthetic roofing system with a smaller assurance period:
Water Seepage Can Become a Nightmare
A limited warranty often means that the quality of the thatching is below par, requiring frequent replacement. Replacing worn thatch involves removing the old one and replacing it on the support system. Any missed screw holes during installation could cause water entry, causing waterproofing problems and increasing expenses. Additionally, breezes can infiltrate weak points. Ignoring such problems can disappoint customers, damage the brand's reputation, and lower sales.
Weakened Framework
A reduced assurance term implies repetitive roof changes, leading to an build-up of fastener marks in your underlying system. Over time, this can damage the frame, potentially requiring repairs or costly replacements. Using a compromised frame poses hazards, as customers might hesitate to sit beneath a thatch roof supported by a weak foundation, worrying about its safety.
Inferior Raw Materials
In order to compensate for the lower retail cost and minimal returns, some producers resort to reprocessed plastics that are foreign rejects. As a result, low-quality materials are often incorporated into plastic thatch panels, leading to reduced strength and weak resistance to elements. Ultimately, this can hurt your profitability of your business.
Verbal Guarantees with No Value
Sellers with lesser warranties often skip documentation to evade responsibility. At best, they might make spoken promises to customers before the sale, which offer no legal backing. If any quality disputes arise, you may find yourself without any recourse.
