This roof was in a state of disrepair. It needed to be totally stripped with the old Blue Bangors cleaned for re-use. First we cleaned the original rafters and applied wood preservative to help extend the lifespan, we then insulated the attic space to upgrade the energy rating of the building. Following this we felt, latted and re-slated the roof using existing slates and reclaimed ones where necessary. Finally we completed the rolled lead ridges and hips to the highest standard. If you’re thinking about upgrading your own roof, contact us and do it...

Our copper work was included through the outlets to allow rainwater to flow into the new cast iron gutters and downpipes. This ensured that the building has a new lease of life whilst maintaining its classic look that is so renowned in Dublin city. ...
