Clive Dodson Master Thatchers is located in Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire. At Clive Dodson Thatchers we pride ourselves on providing a long lasting thatch at reasonable cost. We offer to do work without scaffold. An average cottage roof requires three days preparation of straw by three men. Water reed is not grown specifically for thatching it is an indigenous weed that is managed and cropped for thatching and some other purposes. It is important that reed is tied and baled dry and kept dry. Call us for the products and services that may benefit you.
