E. E. Sharp & Son

Thatching for Films and TV

E. E. Sharp  & Son has over 30 years' experience in supplying thatch and rustic materials for film, stage, television and advertising productions. Working closely with Art, Construction and Special Effects Departments, we can thatch period buildings in authentic styles whilst meeting tight deadlines.

Our exclusive 'Fast Thatch', technique significantly reduces construction times. As an example, we once re-thatched a 45 ft building in 15 minutes to allow continuity of shooting!
