What the job actually involves is set out on the lead work and flashing page, which covers the work itself, the materials and what to expect. What follows is specific to Kildare.

What Kildare Does To A Roof

Kildare is flat, inland and relatively dry, so roofs here are not fighting the weather so much as simply getting older. Faults tend to be found late, often when a ceiling stain finally appears, because there is no gale doing the inspection for you.

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.

Contractors on the list here work out of Newbridge, Naas, Ladytown, Celbridge, Kilcullen and Milltown, so most of the county is within a normal call-out.
