our history

Recon Thatchers is a Bloemfontein based company focussed on providing the highest quality Thatch Roofs for businesses as well as private households.

The business was founded in 1983 by the present owner, Bertus Nieuwenhuis and originally started by focussing on Swimming Pools. After the completion of a 17m x 7m pool with and island and a thatch umbrella, the demand for similar umbrella thatches grew and later included other thatched roof projects.

Today, RECON THATCHERS is a well-known company and a leader in thatching.

Recon Thatchers is also a founder member of the Thatchers Association of SA (TASA), and due to our focus on providing high quality products, work according to the SANS 10400's minimum specifications. This imply that all deals, transactions, workmanship and materials used are in line with the Code of Ethics as prescribed by TASA. Recon Thatchers offers thatch roofs that are built to the highest standard and will improve the value of your property, as well aesthetic beauty thereof, which can be shared and enjoyed by family and friends. Recon Thatchers is affiliated with the International Thatching Society (ITS), and through this affiliation has gained invaluable knowledge shared with us. Recon Thatchers is a franchisee for Micon Coatings's fire retardants that minimise the risks of fire hazards to the client's property. Our Quality and workmanship has proven itself in the more than 3500 thatch roofs that we have erected over the past 30 years. We pride ourselves in being the oldest thatching company in Bloemfontein.
