Product Overview

Build your dream outdoor space with confidence. Our premium creosote pressure-treated poles are specifically selected for their strength, straightness, and durability. Whether you are building a cozy backyard lapa, a stunning garden gazebo, a luxury safari lodge, or a durable patio extension, these poles provide the heavy-duty, rustic framework needed to support heavy thatched roofs safely for decades.

Our Thatching Poles are:

  • Complete Protection Against Pests: Deep pressure-treatment with creosote creates an unbeatable shield against termites, woodborers, and bugs.

  • Hand-Picked for Straightness: Every pole is carefully chosen to make your building process easier and ensure a beautifully aligned, professional finish.

  • Heavy-Duty Support: Naturally strong timber that effortlessly carries the dense, substantial weight of grass or reed thatching.

Important Tips & Care
  • Rich Rustic Finish: These poles have a deep, dark appearance that looks fantastic and perfectly matches natural grass roofing and outdoor landscapes.

  • Where to Use Them: Creosote treatment has a distinct, rustic woody smell when first installed. Because of this, these poles are highly recommended for outdoor, open-air, and well-ventilated structures (like lapas, bomas, carports, and pergolas) rather than completely enclosed indoor rooms.
