He offers a wide range of services throughout the Kent area, and offers a free quote and advice service for those interested in investing in a thatched roof or repairing their current one. Thatch is a sustainable and eco-friendly material, providing good insulation against both hot and cold weather, and removing any need for gutters due to its wide eaves. Despite the common misconception, thatched roofs do not catch fire any more regularly than any other roof. Therefore, not only are they a beautiful finishing touch to any house or property, but they are also a practical, and sustainable option for your roof.

Glen Charter is a traditionally trained Master Thatcher, who has been thatching since 1988 and has successfully run his own business since 1996. Thatching, as a craft, takes many years to master, and as such, Glen's 32 years of experience in the industry have equipped him to provide the highest quality service. He has thatched all over the United Kingdom, and has even thatched property's in America, China, Italy and France. One of his more noteworthy projects was his contribution to the thatching of the Globe Theatre, London in 1996.

Good quality materials, as applied by Glen Charter Master Thatcher's, can last for 30 or more years. Nonetheless, there are a number of ways of ensuring this longevity, such as re-ridging or patching, and as such Glen offers a range of services to meet these needs. Re-ridging is a necessary part of the maintenance of a thatched roof to ensure its longevity and prevent the need for a full re-thatch. Glen offers a range of designs, from flush ridging, to block cut patterning to provide a neat and aesthetic finish.
