Why ThatchKeeper

Thatched homes create a record-keeping problem ordinary houses often do not.

Roof materials age, ridges are renewed at different times, specialist contractors come and go, chimneys need attention, policy requirements vary and evidence accumulates across decades.

The idea is deliberately narrow.

ThatchKeeper is built specifically for owners of thatched properties in the UK. It is not trying to manage every appliance, grocery list or household task.

The product concentrates on the specialist property history that is most likely to become expensive, difficult to reconstruct or important to another party later.

Our editorial rule

We do not present generic internet advice as a substitute for your own insurance wording, fire service advice, a competent thatcher, chimney professional, electrician, stove engineer, surveyor, conservation officer or legal adviser.
