The roofers harvested the longest lasting thatch, during the last quarter of the moon, at low tide. Depending upon the weather and the insect population, the Chamorros replaced their coconut thatched roofs on average
every one to two years.
The woven coconut leaf thatch used for roofing or for walls. A minimum number of higai even for the smallest homes was over 500. Women helped in weaving the higai. The coconut fronds were split along the midrib,
each end of the frond was trimmed, the leaflets were diagonally plaited, and then the two sides were placed one on top of the other with the shinny side of the woven leaflets facing up. Finally, the halves of each frond were
tied together to form one panel for the roof. The builders stacked the freshly woven panels crosswise to dry. Once dry, they were ready to be tied to the bålas with pandanus leaf lashings called fågot.
The thatching began at the eaves by tying a horizontal row of higai from one end of the house to the other. The next overlapping row began a few inches above the row below, until row after row, they reached the ridgepole.
After thatching each side of the roof and the gables, the roofers covered the ridge with series of overlapping end to end freshly woven pupong. To make each pupong the split halves of the coconut fronds were
tightly woven into each other forming a wide panel with the heavy stems on the outer sides. The pupong were draped over the ridgepole with only the heavy stems holding them in place until they were secured
with tokcha’, or thin sticks, running through one side of the pupong under the ridgepole and then through the opposite side of the pupong.
