Re-Roofing in Bandon

A new roof built for Bandon

Bandon calls itself the Gateway to West Cork, a historic walled town founded by Richard Boyle, the Earl of Cork, straddling the Bandon river with its handsome bridge and the spire of Christ Church on Kilbrogan Hill. A market town with deep history, it has a fine stock of period buildings alongside growing modern estates.

Bandon's centre holds period stone and rendered terraces with slate roofs, while estates have spread on the higher ground around the town. The river valley brings damp, so we keep a close eye on flashings, valleys and attic ventilation on Bandon roofs. Given bandon river valley, damp and prone to heavy rain, a Bandon re-roof has to be specified and fixed to stand up to local conditions — which is exactly how we build them.

“We got a complete new roof — felt, battens, slates, the lot. The quote was clear with no surprises and the finish is superb. The house is warmer and there's not a draught off the attic now.”

FAQs

Roof replacements in Bandon — FAQs

How long does a re-roof take in Bandon?

Most domestic re-roofs take around three to seven working days depending on the roof's size, complexity and the weather. We give a realistic timescale with your quote.

What's included in a new roof?

Stripping the old roof, new breathable underlay, treated battens, your chosen slate or tile, new ridge and verge, fresh lead flashings, and removal of all waste.

How long will a new roof last?

Natural slate can last 80–100 years or more; quality fibre-cement and concrete tiles typically give 40–60 years. We'll talk you through the best option for your home.

Can you match the slate on an older Bandon townhouse?

Yes. For the period terraces around the town centre and Kilbrogan we source matching natural and reclaimed slate and renew lead detailing so repairs blend in. Keeping the look of Bandon's older streets right is part of doing the job properly.

Will my property be protected during the work?

Yes — proper scaffolding, sheeting to protect your home and gardens, and a tidy site with a full clean-up at the end.
