What Wicklow Does To A Roof

Wicklow is the one Leinster county where altitude does the talking. The coast at Bray and Greystones is mild and moderate, but roofs up in the mountains and the glens get considerably more rain and noticeably more wind, and the difference over a few miles is real.

The stock ranges from coastal town housing and commuter estates to older stone houses and lodges up in the valleys, some of them substantial and steeply roofed. Access on a mountain site is often the hardest part of the job.

Tell the roofer your elevation, not just your town, because a specification that suits Greystones is not necessarily right at Laragh. On an upland property, ask how they intend to get scaffold in and what the weather contingency is.

Contractors on the list here work out of Bray, Newtown Mount Kennedy, Donard, Broomhall, Roundwood and Network Enterprise Park, so most of the county is within a normal call-out.

Getting lead work and flashing Done In Wicklow

Everything depends on where you are. Coastal Wicklow schedules much like Dublin, while a job up in the glens can be held up for weeks by weather that never reaches the coast road.
