From being the preferred roofing method across the world and climatic conditions, thatched roofs today seem to have become simply a cosmetic look for resorts and restaurants.

Yet it's appeal continues to call out to most. What can be better than being able to build your roof with dried straw or grass or leaves around. And a roof that keeps your home well insulated from temperature extremes while being waterproof. Plus, a roof that can be maintained and repaired, whenever needed, with the same grasses available in abundance.
