Brisbane Thatch & Decks Bali Hut Measurements.

 
To help us keep maintenance and repair prices low and assist you in quick accurate quotes, It would be of great value if you use the following diagrams to identify your type Bali Hut Structure and measuring guide. Photos from the side and inside is also extremely helpful in giving you a quick diagnostic and relatively accurate estimate.

1) We at Brisbane Thatch and Decks basically just needs  two dimensions, X and Y. Taken from the widest point or kicker bar of the Balinese Hut or Gazebo to the opposite kicker plate. In other words the dimension form the furthest point of the frame to the opposite furthest point of the frame in both directions.

 

2) We also need to know the type of the Balinese Hut / Gazebo: A, B or C. See Diagrams.

 

3) We will also need some photo's of the roof. From the front so we can see the whole roof and surrounding areas plus the pitch of the roof. Close ups of any damage on the roofs inside and outside of the roof.

Type A and B - Roofs is the more modern type roofs that is design to give the most space under the Bali Hut. Taking Dimension on the Apex design is a little different because of the thatch overhang see figure A.

On the Standard 4 hip roof the dimensions Brisbane Thatch need is taken from the widest ends of the frame, not between the post. In these types frames the ring beam acts as the kicker bar as well.

 

If you able to measure or gage the pitch it would also be helpful in giving a more accurate preliminary quote.

Type C - Roofs is more traditional roof designs that has been adapted for Bali Huts . It is important that the dimensions is taken from the most projecting kicker plate of the frame. The new thatch spacing's or bundles thatch use for hip coverings will start from this point. The new thatch will project another 500mm beyond this point..

Hexagonal Roofs and other multi shaped roofs.

 

It is important that the dimensions is taken from the most projecting kicker plate of the frame. The new thatch spacing's or bundles thatch use for hip coverings will start from this point. The new thatch will project another 500mm beyond this point.

 

1) We need three dimensions, X, Y & Z.

​

2) Photos' are always very helpful in evaluating the extend of the work needed as well as showing the access to the roof and giving us an idea of the pitch.

 

If we should describe the Hexagonal roof we would actually refer to it as say a 4 m Hexagon where the dimension 4 = Z = point o point measurement.
