Crypress poles
These amazing poles are gorgeous. Their golden highly textured gnarled and knotted surfaces create a truly unique look.
Cypress gets it exquisite look because its bark is peeled from the timber exposing all of its nodes and imperfections and has a deep rich color. Like eucalyptus, it can be formed into any shape or design , but is about 30% more costly than eucalyptus. Its look stands apart from other timber products. Cypress can span just about any length with the right diameter.

Natural Palm Thatch

Natural Palm thatch is cut from select kinds of palm trees, but the most widely used is from the Sabal Palm . The fronds are cut fresh and installed within 5 days of cutting, thus giving it its green look. After about 3-6 months the structure will settle, the leaves will compress and dry out and turn completely brown giving you that traditional look.

Re-thatching a previously built structure by a qualified thatcher will cost on average about $10-$15 dollars a square foot. This price can vary outside the average, as it is greatly impacted by the size, shape, and spacing of the structure.
Mexican Rain Cape

Mexican Rain Cape is a great, inexpensive way to create a tropical theme.

While rain cape doesn’t have the longevity like other thatches, these woven-palm sheets are inexpensive, and great for indoor use. They can be used outside but are not suggested as their life span outside is under a year.

Tahiti Thatch Panels

Made from hardy high-desert palm leaves, these natural rustic thatch panels are ideal for any Caribbean island look.

Because of its thickness, it can last between three to five years, and depending on the climate and regular pest control treatments.

Tahiti Thatch Panels can be used on open batton structures or sub-roof structures.
African Reed

African reed has an overall rich golden hue, with green and brown hints throughout

Once installed provides a distinct “stepped” appearance.

Panels are made in a 31” x 16” x 1.5” panel.

These panels are nearly waterproof and generally last between four and five years, depending on the climate.

These panels can be installed on metal frabricated frames with the clips that come on the panels, or nailed/stapled to wood frame structures
Elephant Grass

Also called Alang-alang thatch. This natural, elegant grass thatch is prevalent through the South Pacific and southeast Asia. Elephant Grass thatch rustles gently in the wind and immediately conjures up images of the South Pacific, and when properly layered can last 5-7 years depending on the climate and humidity

A very light and wispy grass thatch. Creates an elegant look that rustles softly in the wind. True Bali-style type of thatch. Quite durable, expect 5-6 years of life in hot and humid climates like south Florida, and up to double that in arid conditions.
Viro Synthetic Thatch

Viro thatch panels are the best choice you can make for your thatching needs. The panels at installation look very flat but within a couple weeks of being in the sun flare out and take on the look of natural thatch. We have had several comments from customers and people passing by, asking it that real thatch, it's hard to tell.

Synthetic thatch panels are more expensive than natural thatch panels, but in the long run are more economical because they don't require maintenance or replacement for many years, whereas the natural thatch panels will have to be replaced 2-3 times during that time.
