A practical approach to new roofs
A sound new roof depends on far more than the tiles or slates you see from the road. Membranes, battens, ventilation, ridges, valleys, flashings and the way water reaches the gutters all need to work together. We assess what is already there, explain what needs to come off and what can stay, then price the job around the actual house rather than a standard package.
Dublin roofs have to cope with plenty of wind-driven rain, and homes nearer the coast can take even more weather. On older terraces and extensions, ventilation and awkward junctions are often just as important as the roof covering itself.
What can be included
- Complete re-roofing for tired or failing roofs
- Tile, slate and suitable flat-roof options
- Ventilation, flashing, ridge and valley details included in the plan
- Old coverings removed where required and the work area kept orderly
- A clear quotation setting out the agreed scope before work begins
