What the job actually involves is set out on the commercial roofing page, which covers the work itself, the materials and what to expect. What follows is specific to Kilkenny.

What Kilkenny Does To A Roof

Sheltered and moderate, Kilkenny is not a county where roofs get torn apart. What it does have is a lot of old building fabric, and on old roofs the failures are gradual: mortar going soft, lead fatiguing at the folds, nails rusting through while the slate stays perfectly serviceable.

Kilkenny city has a dense medieval core with tall stone buildings, steep slate roofs and awkward access, and the county has fine older farmhouses along the Nore. This is a county where a re-roof is often about conservation as much as construction.

On a period building, ask what the roofer proposes to do about matching, because the wrong slate size or colour on a repair is obvious from the street and hard to undo. In the city, settle access and scaffold before anything else.

Contractors on the list here work out of Leggetsrath West, Cashel, Loughboy, Piltown, Middleknock and Purcellsinch, so most of the county is within a normal call-out.

Getting commercial roofing Done In Kilkenny

On the older buildings that make up much of the interesting work here, sourcing matching slate can add weeks before anyone gets on the roof. Ask about lead times on materials as well as on labour.
