Find a Roofer in Kildare Who Knows Kildare Roofs
The 27 roofers listed here work right across the county, from Newbridge and Naas through Celbridge and out to Kildare Town. Most are called out for roof repairs rather than anything dramatic: a slipped slate, a cracked ridge tile, a leak that shows up on a bedroom ceiling after a bad night. The same contractors handle flat roofing in EPDM, fibreglass and felt, fascia, soffit and guttering, chimney lead work, full re-roofs, and emergency call-outs when a storm takes slates off.
A lot of the county is commuter housing built through the estate booms, which means large numbers of roofs of much the same age arriving at the same problems together. Alongside that there is older housing in Naas, Newbridge and Athy, and substantial farm and stud buildings across the plains.
On an estate house, it is worth asking whether the roofer has worked on the same build nearby, because these roofs fail in patterns and someone who knows the pattern finds the fault faster. On farm buildings, ask specifically about sheeting and fixings rather than slate.

Roofers in Kildare, Rated by Real Google Reviews
The order changes every time you load this page, so it is worth scanning the full list rather than stopping at the first name. The big number on each listing is its Google review count, which is the hardest thing on here to fake: a hundred reviews at 4.7 is worth more than five at 5.0, and the Kildare average is 4.9.
Roofers in Kildare: What to Know Before You Hire
Roof Repairs, New Roofs and Flat Roofing in Kildare
Most jobs a roofer in Kildare is called for are repairs: a slipped or missing slate, a cracked ridge tile, a leak around a chimney, or damage after a storm. These are usually straightforward to put right once a roofer has had a look. Bigger work, a full re-roof or a new roof on an extension, makes sense when damage is widespread or a roof is at the end of its life. Alongside pitched slate and tile work, Kildare roofers handle flat roofing in EPDM rubber, GRP fibreglass and felt, fascia, soffit and guttering, lead and flashing, and emergency call-outs. After a bad storm, see our storm damage section for what to do first.
How Much Does a Roof Cost in Kildare?
Roofing prices in Kildare follow the national pattern. As a rough 2026 guide, expect a roof repair to cost from about €150 to €2,000, a full re-roof from €8,500 to €24,000 or more depending on size and material, and a flat roof from €3,500 to €9,500. The figure depends on the size and pitch of your roof, access and the material, so the best way to budget is to compare written quotes from a few local roofers. Our roofing cost guide breaks the numbers down further.
Choosing a Roofer in Kildare
Start with the Google rating and read a few recent reviews, ask for a written quote that itemises the work, and confirm the roofer carries public liability insurance. Get more than one quote for anything substantial, never pay the full amount up front, and be wary of door-to-door callers offering cheap cash fixes after a storm. Every contractor listed here in Kildare is a real business shown with its public rating, so you can shortlist before you call. For more, see our guide on how to choose a roofer.
Roofers in Kildare for Every Roofing Job
Most calls are a repair: a slipped slate, a cracked ridge, a leak at the chimney. Some are a full re-roof. Each page below lists the Kildare roofers who do that specific job, with the 2026 price range for it and what to ask before you agree anything.
Roofers in Kildare: What Homeowners Ask Most
How much does a new roof cost in Kildare?
As a 2026 guide, a full re-roof on a 70m² semi-detached house starts around €8,000 in concrete or clay tile, €12,000 in natural Spanish slate and €18,000 in Welsh or Killaloe slate. Those are starting points, not quotes: the size and pitch of the roof, access, scaffold and the condition of the timber underneath all move the figure. Get written quotes from two or three Kildare roofers and compare what is actually included.
How much is a small roof repair in Kildare?
Smaller jobs price far more predictably than a re-roof. A slipped or cracked slate replaced on a visit runs €80 to €200, chimney repointing and flashing €400 to €900, ridge repointing €600 to €1,500, a flat roof patch €250 to €600 and a storm damage call-out €200 to €400. Any roofer will quote a repair free of charge, so there is no reason to guess.
How do I know a Kildare roofer is insured?
Ask for the certificate, not the assurance. You want public liability cover of at least €2 million, and a professional roofer will send it without hesitating. If someone is reluctant, that is your answer. Also ask whether they are on the Construction Industry Register Ireland, and get the workmanship guarantee in writing rather than agreed on the doorstep.
Do I need scaffolding, and is it included?
For a full re-roof, yes, and it is not a matter of preference: scaffold is required under the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work (Construction) Regulations, and anyone proposing to re-roof a house without it is working outside the law and without insurance cover. It costs roughly €800 to €2,000 for a standard semi. Confirm in writing whether it is inside the quote, because some quotes exclude it and add it later.
How long does a re-roof take?
Five to seven working days on a standard three-bedroom semi, from stripping to the last flashing. The scaffold goes up the day before and comes down one to two days after, so it is in place two to three weeks in total. You can stay in the house throughout; the interior is not affected, but stripping and nailing is loud and attic access will be limited.
What are the ratings on this page, and can they be trusted?
Every rating shown is the roofer's own public Google rating, pulled from their listing. We do not score anyone ourselves, so the figure you see is exactly what Google shows. One thing worth knowing when you compare: a rating on its own says very little, because most listings sit at or near 5.0. The review COUNT is the harder number to fake, which is why it is the figure shown largest on each listing.
Why does the order of roofers change every time I visit?
Because it is deliberate. If the list were fixed, whoever sat at the top would collect most of the calls in Kildare for no reason other than being first, which tells you nothing about the quality of their work. Shuffling it on every visit spreads that fairly. The evidence you need to choose, the review count and the rating, is on every listing regardless of where it lands.
Is there a fee for contacting a roofer through this page?
No, and there is no middleman. The phone number on each listing is the roofer's own, you ring them directly, and we take nothing from the job. We do not sell your details on either. This is a directory, not a lead-generation service.
Do Kildare roofers cover emergencies and storm damage?
Many do. After a storm the usual sequence is a temporary make-safe or tarpaulin to stop water getting in, then the permanent repair once the weather allows. Call-outs run €200 to €400. It is fastest to ring two or three Kildare roofers at once rather than waiting on one, and be wary of anyone calling door to door offering a cheap cash fix afterwards.
