Hello,
We have been considering the construction of a thatched roof house for some time. Since we live in Lower Saxony near the Elbe, you do see such roofs quite often, but our architect (at least one of the three we asked) advised against it because the climate is too humid and there would then be a risk of mold formation.
Who is familiar with this and how great is the actual risk?
Ironically, we want a thatched roof precisely for climate reasons.....
Best regards
