Project note for Hedgehog roof

In areas such as gazebos, shade structures and garden pavilions, first define the limits of the application and the condition of the existing surface. Using a sample, evaluate how the look of short, dense, layered fibers relates to the light and other materials in the space.

For a quote, share a general photo of the area, close-ups of connection details and approximate measurements together. If you expect outdoor exposure, heavy use or special maintenance, add this to the project note.
