Thatchers Association of South Africa (TASA)

Before TASA there was no regulating body to supervise or oversee the thatching industry- this meant that contractors of sub-standard skill were able to practice alongside the rest and had no-one to answer to. The Association today aims to provide both contractors and customers with guidelines as to the expected construction standards, quality and ethics that should be practiced by contractors, to achieve a strong basic standard for the industry as a whole.

Cintsa Thatching is a full member of TASA and all work carried out is done to TASA specifications. TASA gives sound advice to customers who are choosing a thatching contractor. Click here to read an article by TASA with advice on choosing the right thatching contractor.

Cintsa Thatching has had a lot of experience in fixing sub-quality workmanship - to ensure that you get a quality structure and roof which will provide problem free roofing for as long as possible, we advise that you take the advice of TASA in choosing your contractor. The cheapest is often not the best and although it may seem alright at the time, cheap structures where contractors cut corners, will encounter problems in the future.
