All the Roofing Work You Need in One Place
From a single slipped slate to a full flat roof replacement, we handle every part of the job — properly, with the right materials for Irish weather conditions.
Roof Repairs Limerick
Slipped, cracked or missing slates and tiles let rainwater straight in. We locate the source of the leak — often different to where it shows inside — replace the damaged covering, and re-bed any loose sections. Work carried out to last, not just patched over.
Learn more →Flat Roof Repairs
Felt, fibreglass (GRP) and EPDM rubber flat roofs develop splits, blisters and ponding over time. We identify whether the membrane, the insulation board or the deck itself is the problem, then carry out the right repair — not a temporary patch that fails next winter.
Learn more →Chimney Repairs Limerick
Chimneys take the worst of the weather. Crumbling pointing, cracked haunching, loose flashings and spalled brickwork all allow water into the stack and down into the ceiling below. We repoint, re-haunch, replace lead flashings and rebuild where needed. See our full chimney repairs service.
Learn more →Gutter Repairs Limerick
Blocked, leaking or sagging gutters send water down your walls and into your foundations. We clear blockages, re-seal joints, replace cracked sections and re-hang gutters that have dropped from the fascia. Our full gutter repairs service covers the entire rainwater system.

Ridge tile repointing, verge repairs, re-felting and battening, moss treatment and lead valley replacements. If it sits above the wall plate, we deal with it. Contact us to discuss any roofing job that does not fit neatly into one category.

Most roof problems have clear warning signs if you know what to look for. Here are the issues we see most often on Limerick homes — and what is usually behind them.
Damp patches on ceilings or walls
Water tracks a long way before it shows inside. A damp patch in a bedroom corner could be caused by a slipped slate on the opposite side of the roof, a failed flashing at the chimney, or a blocked valley. We trace the actual entry point rather than just treating the symptom.
Missing or slipped slates and tiles
Wind lifts slates when the nibs break or the fixing nails corrode. On older Limerick terraces this is common after winter storms. Each gap left open accelerates damage to the underlay and battens beneath, so early replacement keeps the repair cost small.
Crumbling chimney pointing
Lime mortar pointing has a finite life, and once it erodes, water gets into the joints and freezes in winter, cracking the brickwork further. Spalled bricks and loose chimney pots are the next stage. Catching it at the repointing stage is far cheaper than a partial rebuild. See our chimney repairs page for more detail.
Flat roof blistering or ponding
Heat causes felt membranes to bubble and separate from the deck. Ponding water — sitting more than 48 hours after rain — accelerates UV degradation and adds structural load. A small blister caught early can be repaired cleanly; left, it becomes a full membrane replacement.
Overflowing or leaking gutters
Gutters blocked with moss and debris from the roof cause water to spill over the fascia, saturating the timber behind and the wall below. Leaking joints and sagging sections have the same effect. Our gutter repairs service deals with the whole rainwater system in one visit where possible.
Failed lead flashings
The lead step and soaker flashings around a chimney or dormer are typically the first place a roof leaks. Lead fatigues, lifts and cracks over time. Incorrectly dressed lead — often seen on DIY repairs — lets water in at the very point it is supposed to be sealed out.
What Happens When You Call Us
No guesswork, no hidden extras. Here is what to expect from the first call to the finished job.
Free inspection & diagnosis
We visit, get up on the roof safely, and find the actual source of the problem. We check the covering, the flashings, the ridge, verge and valley condition, and the gutters while we are up there.
Clear written quote
You get a plain-English quote itemising the work, the materials and the price — before anything is touched. No vague estimates that balloon once work starts.
Sourcing the right materials
We match replacement slates and tiles to your existing roof where possible — colour, profile and size. For flat roofs we use materials suited to the specific membrane type already in place.
The repair itself
Work is carried out with roof ladders, scaffolding where access demands it, and the correct fixings for the job. We work tidily and take spent materials away with us.
Check and clean up
Before we leave, we check the repair from the ground and, where practical, inspect from the loft side to confirm no water ingress paths remain. Your garden and drive are left as we found them.
Aftercare advice
We tell you what to watch for and how often the area should be checked. If we spotted anything else during the inspection that will need attention in the next year or two, we flag it — no hard sell, just honest information.
What Affects the Cost of Roof Work in Limerick
Every job is different. The factors below are what we look at when pricing a repair. For a firm number, the only accurate route is a free inspection — call us and we will arrange it promptly.
- Extent of the damage — a handful of slates costs far less than a section where the underlay and battens have rotted beneath them.
- Roof height and access — a single-storey extension is straightforward with a ladder; a tall three-storey requires a scaffold tower, which adds to the overall cost.
- Material type — natural slate, concrete tile, clay tile, GRP and EPDM all vary in material cost. Matching an existing roof covering to discontinued profiles can add time and sourcing cost.
- Chimney and flashing work — lead flashing replacement is labour-intensive; the more lead involved (step flashings, back gutter, soakers), the higher the price.
- What is found underneath — if lifted slates reveal rotten battens or a perished underlay, those need to be dealt with at the same time or the repair will not hold.
- Emergency vs. planned work — planned repairs during dry weather are always more straightforward than urgent call-outs after storm damage.

How quickly can you get to me for an urgent roof leak?
We aim to respond to urgent leak calls as quickly as possible. Call us directly on 061788373 and we will do our best to get someone out to you the same day or next day, weather and scheduling permitting.
Is the quote really free, and is there any obligation?
Yes, our quotes are completely free and carry no obligation. We inspect the roof, explain what we find, and give you a clear written price. You decide whether to go ahead — there is no pressure either way.
Do I need scaffolding for a roof repair in Limerick?
Not always. Many repairs — replacing slipped slates, repointing a chimney, or clearing a blocked gutter — can be done safely with a ladder and roof ladders. Where the job requires scaffolding for safe access, we will include that in the quote so there are no surprises.
How do I know if I need a repair or a full roof replacement?
During our inspection we assess the age and overall condition of the roof covering, the state of the underlay, battens, and structure beneath. If the majority of slates or tiles are sound and the structure is solid, targeted repairs are normally the right call. We will only recommend a full replacement when it genuinely represents better value than ongoing repairs. Our guide on signs you need a new roof in Ireland covers the key indicators in detail.
