The long-awaited summer is just around the corner. However, enjoying summer with your old, dull Bali hut under the hot Aussie sun is frustrating; it simply ruins the experience. And you don’t want that, do you?

Well, you are in luck because East Coast Bali Huts and Gazebos provides the most innovative style of refurbishment with alternative roofing—roofing over thatching! Doesn’t that sound unique? Aside from Bali hut rethatching, you can now improve your exterior roof while retaining the hut’s beautiful features.

Let’s face it—Alang-Alang thatch has its distinct look and charm. Yet, while this method is appealing, it requires planning. Because as Taylor Swift’s song goes, “if you fail to plan, you plan to fail.” So, knowing the right factors to consider is critical.

4 Things to Consider When Refurbishing with Alternative Roofing

Imagine having a summer-like experience in a Bali tropical paradise inside your huts, then enjoying the refreshing look of your outer roof’s tactile view outside. It’s like having two sceneries in one location!

Thus, to ensure that you can enjoy this ideal summer setting, consider the following before hiring professionals to refurbish your huts with alternative roofing:

1. Know What You Want

The first thing to consider is that you know what you need to do for your Bali Huts, which is to have another roofing over the thatching. Do you want to do this for the summer?

It’s important to note that this method provides long-lasting protection for your huts, making it a more permanent roof finish.

So, returning to the original question, “Is your creative mind prepared for this unique change for your old Bali Huts?” If so, let’s get your summer hut ready!

2. Choose Your Roof Material

Choosing a roofing material can be challenging. You have a variety of options, ranging from slates to asphalt shingles. However, whatever you choose, strike a balance in functionality, aesthetics, and protection—because an eye-catching roof material is useless if it cannot withstand the elements.

And East Coast Bali Huts and Gazebos team listens to your concerns, which is why we are proud to offer you a wide range of roofing materials! Here are some of them:

  • Asphalt Shingles: a very tactile organic look for the exterior of your roof;
  • Eco-Slate: a beautiful natural and ecological alternative to stone slate; and
  • Gerard Pressed Metal: a classic look with increased resistance to outdoor elements such as hailstorms. It also offers a fashionable and secure roofing system.

3. Get the Right Colour

If you’ve already decided on a roofing material, the next step is to pick on a colour. Would you prefer a dramatic black or an earthy brown? Or does your aesthetic favour soft-dark colours? Whatever you choose, ensure to match the colours of your re-roofing to the thatching on your Bali Hut.

And this summer, ensure that the colour of your roof will keep you cool under the sun’s scorching heat.

Consider this scenario: after swimming in your backyard’s Balinese feels swimming pool, you want to get some shade under your Bali Hut, only to discover that it’s twice as hot as the outside—that would frustrate you. So, pay attention to your colours for refurbishing with alternative roofing!

4. Consider Your Budget
