Our Bali-style Thatch is imported directly from Bali, and is made from natural Alang Alang grass, using the white string stitch method which makes the thatch more durable. As with all of our products, only premium materials are used to assemble this thatch, which are carefully selected to ensure quality and longevity of the product. This thatch has also been designed to be waterproof so that your gazebo can withstand harsher weather conditions and can still be a nice “retreat” even when it’s drizzling outside.
The Balinese thatch strips can be purchased separately for your DIY thatch projects. They are very quick and easy to install, without the need for any special tools or skills needed. The strips are also pre-fabricated and created specifically with “do-it-yourselfers” in mind, which makes construction a much simpler process. And of course, our staff are always ready to help guide you with proper attachment and assembly procedures.
DIY Balinese Thatch: We will include an instruction manual(12 pages) and a 1300 phone support line to answer all your questions.
Remember, DIY projects should be fulfilling and rewarding, not frustrating and annoying. And just because it’s a DIY project, doesn’t mean you have to figure everything out all by yourself. If you ever have any questions, or just want a bit of advice from a team that’s set up these roofs many times before, just give us a call; we’re always happy to help (1300 855 440).
Not All Balinese Thatching Strips are Created Equal:
Through many years of experience, we have identified various stitching methods and have studied how these affect the longevity and sturdiness of the roof itself. The two main kinds of stitching methods are Black String and White String. The Black String method is inferior because it does not create a tight enough hold within the thatch strip and causes it to deteriorate rapidly. In some cases the roofs that were assembled with Black String thatch strips begin to show serious damage after just 3 years! This is very important to keep in mind because you don’t want to incur the expense and the stress of having to re-thatch the roof every couple of years.
On the other hand, all of our thatch strips only use the White String method, which helps create a product that is bound tighter and can therefore withstand harsher weather conditions with significantly less damage.

Why Invest in a Cedar Gazebo?
Our Colorbond Gazibos are a wonderful place to entertain, or kick back and relax with your friends and family. The roofs on these Huts look neat and stylish with the added benefit of providing a shade that is up to 10 degrees cooler on hot summer days.
If you’ve been considering an Colorbond Gazibo for your yard, here’s something to keep in mind as you do your research: most people who buy Colorbond Gazibo roofs are completely unaware that the materials and design that they use can literally make or break their project. The simplistic look of these huts doesn’t do justice in conveying the amount of effort that our team has put in to perfect the structural design, so that the huts can withstand harsh weather conditions, look great, and last for a very long time.
For example, did you know that something as simple as deciding the pitch of the roof can affect not only how your Gazebo looks, but will actually affect how long the thatch will last and how cool the shade under the roof will be? Most gazebo manufacturers still use a roof pitch of less than 40 degrees, which creates a roof that is more prone to damage from winds and harsh weather. We realized early on that the pitch was of utmost importance, and were one of the first companies to manufacture our gazebos with a roof pitch of at least 40 degrees. This helps the thatch last longer, makes the hut look more inviting because a larger portion of the thatch is visible, and makes the shade cooler because the sunlight hits the roof at a more indirect angle.

We also go one step further, and use the latest software and measuring instruments to ensure that the structural timber sections of the roof exceed Australian standards. In fact our standard practice in ensuring quality is not to just meet structural standards but to create a margin of safety by exceeding such standards whenever possible.
This helps us ensure that you’re buying only the highest quality Colorbond Gazibo, and gives us the confidence in our work that allows us to offer one of the most generous gazebo warranties in all of Australia.
Our emphasis on quality and our willingness to stand by our products by offering the most comprehensive warranty policy are just some of the reasons why Exotic Thatch is the preferred supplier of Flower Power (the biggest nursery group in Australia). Our products and thatching methods are also used by Better Homes and Gardens and have been featured 3 times on the show!

Our Clientele
Just wanted to provide a few photos and some comments on our experience with your company. We purchased a 4 meter x 3 meter African Hut.
From the outset the staff at Exotic Thatch at Long Jetty were professional and very helpful. The workmanship of the Hut is excellent . I have had many friends and relatives comment on how meticulous the workmanship is. I would have no problem in recommending Exotic Thatch to anybody interested in purchasing a African Hut. I have attached some images for your records.
