Planning a new roof or roof replacement

Your roof is one of the most important parts of your property—it protects you from the elements, improves energy efficiency, and adds value to your home. That’s why choosing an experienced roofing contractor is crucial.

We’ve been installing slate, tile, flat, zinc, and felt roofs for years. Our team ensures every new roof is built to Irish building regulations, designed to withstand harsh weather, and backed by a guarantee for your peace of mind.

We offer a full range of roof installation solutions, including:

✔ Pitched Roofs – Natural slate, clay tiles, and concrete tiles for a classic, durable finish.
✔ Flat Roofs – High-performance felt, GRP fibreglass, and single-ply membranes.
✔ Zinc & Metal Roofing – Modern and stylish, ideal for contemporary homes.
✔ Energy-Efficient Roofing Systems – Designed to improve insulation and reduce energy costs.
✔ Complete Roof Replacement – Remove old roofs and install brand-new systems.


A local leak or damaged roof covering may be a repair issue rather than a replacement project: visit Roof Repairs in Cork for that service. For standalone fascia and soffit renewal, see Fascia and Soffit Installers in Cork.

Discussing the right scope for your project

The right route is based on the condition and requirements of the individual property. We can discuss whether the enquiry is for a new installation, a full replacement or a different specialist service. Where chimney work, drainage work or roofline-only work is the main requirement, the relevant specialist page gives a clearer route for the enquiry: Chimney Repairs, Gutter Repairs or Fascia and Soffit Installers. Worried about the timber under your slates or tiles? Read our guide to roof battens. If gutters are part of the same project, see how to decide between gutter repair or replacement.
