A well-kept thatched roof carries the weather in its surface: darkened courses, feathered ridges, and the quiet geometry of every spar. Eaveward turns those signs into a practical fieldbook for owners, craftspeople, and curious walkers who want to read a roof with care.
Use the Roof Course Bench to set roof area, pitch, material, course depth, and exposure, then receive an honest bundle estimate, fixing count, ridge allowance, and maintenance window. Explore a twelve-entry craft library, record roof inspections with photographs and condition notes, keep useful references, and learn why combed wheat reed, long straw, and water reed weather differently—all offline in a measured paper-and-ochre workspace.
