Expert Wiltshire Thatchers
At R.V. Miller Ltd, we have over 50 years of experience and can cater to all your thatched roof needs. From the smallest garden project to the largest barn conversion, we are the best thatchers in Wiltshire. We use wheat reed and water read on thatch roofs, with water reed being the more durable material. There is little aesthetic difference between a roof thatched in wheat reed or water reed, so at a glance, it is hard to tell the difference.
Both water reed and wheat reed have been used on roofs for centuries, but water reed is hard wearing and durable compared to wheat reed. When you choose water reed, you can expect your roof to last in excess of 25 years and, with regular maintenance from expert Wiltshire thatchers, 45 years. A wheat reed thatched roof, however, will only last around 15 to 25 years as it rots more quickly.
As expert thatchers in Wiltshire, our services for thatched roofing include:

An important part of maintaining your thatch roof is ensuring the ridging is replaced approximately every ten years. As expert thatchers Wiltshire clients can rely on us to handle the ridging maintenance for your roof.
Repairs
To keep your thatch roof well maintained, you should have small, singular repairs and inspections carried out by qualified experts like us. A well-maintained thatch roof will ensure a longer lifespan.
Water Repellent Coating
As expert thatchers in Wiltshire, we can now offer our clients a water-repellent coating using nanotechnology. The treatment preserves the lifespan of your thatch roof by offering a long-lasting, anti-mould protective barrier.
