What Wexford Does To A Roof

Wexford is the sunniest, driest corner of the country, and roofs here get an easier time of it than almost anywhere else. The exception is the coast, which is open to the southeast and takes wind and salt off the Irish Sea, so a roof at Rosslare or Kilmore lives differently to one inland at Enniscorthy.

Coastal towns and holiday housing along the shore, older town housing in Wexford and Enniscorthy, and productive farmland with substantial agricultural buildings between them.

Inland, the useful question is about age and fixings, since the weather is not the culprit. On the coast, ask about salt and corrosion, and if the house is a holiday property ask what checking it over between seasons would cost.

Contractors on the list here work out of New Ross, Gorey, Townparks, Ballygoman, Strandfield and Ballytory Lower, so most of the county is within a normal call-out.

The best weather in the country makes this one of the easiest counties to schedule roof work in, and the season runs longer here than anywhere else. Holiday-home work clusters around the shoulder months, so book outside them if you can.
