Re-Roofing & Roof Replacement
f your roof has reached the end of its lifespan, we can carry out a full re-roof. This means carefully removing the old materials and installing a new roof that’s safe, secure, and built to last. It’s also a great opportunity to upgrade insulation and improve the overall look of your home.
New Roof Installations
Building a new home or an extension? We handle every stage of roof installation, from the timber structure to the final slates or tiles. We’ll work with you to make sure the roof complements your property and performs well for decades.
Slate & Tile Roofing
Slates and tiles are traditional choices that never go out of style. We source high-quality materials to create roofs that not only look beautiful but also withstand the harsh Irish climate.
Flat & Metal Roofing
For modern builds, garages, and extensions, we also install flat roofing systems as well as zinc, copper, and corrugated metal roofs. These finishes are practical, durable, and add a contemporary look to your home.

Frequently asked questions
What areas do you work in?
We’re based in Waterford but regularly work across:
Waterford City & County – including Tramore, Dungarvan, Portlaw, and surrounding areas
Kilkenny City & County – including Callan, Thomastown, Castlecomer, and nearby towns
- South Tipperary
If you’re in the South East, chances are we’ve worked on a roof not far from you.
How do I know if I need a new roof?
Common signs include leaks, missing slates, sagging, or simply a roof that’s 25 years or older. We can inspect and advise on whether repair or replacement is the best option.
How much will a new roof cost?
It depends on the size, materials, and type of roof. We provide clear, free quotes so you know exactly what to expect – no surprises. Please don’t hesitate to contact us to discuss potential costs.
How long does a roof replacement take?
Most re-roofing projects take between one and two weeks, depending on the size of the property and the materials used. We’ll give you a clear timeline before work commences.
Can a roof be repaired instead of replaced?
Often, yes. If the damage is localised (like a few broken slates), a repair may be all that’s needed. If the roof is very old or has widespread issues, replacement is usually the smarter option long-term.
Do you offer guarantees on your roofing work?
Yes – all of our work is fully guaranteed. We’ll explain the warranty details for both workmanship and materials before starting any job.
Can you improve insulation when replacing a roof?
Absolutely. A new roof is the perfect time to upgrade insulation and ventilation, helping to lower heating bills and keep your home comfortable year-round.
