Roof repairs in Templeogue span 70-year-old natural slate that is often ready for full renewal and 1960s concrete tile with dry-ridge and flat-roof issues. This guide covers what roof repairs cost in Templeogue in 2026, how long they take, and how to tell a repair from a replacement.
Templeogue grew steadily from the 1940s through the 1970s, giving it solid semi-detached homes and some detached ones. Many 1940s and 1950s properties have original natural slate, now 70 to 80 years old and typically due for full replacement, underlay, batten and ridge included.
The 1960s and 1970s stock has concrete tile that is also nearing the end of its life. We work across both types in D6W, and the honest answer for an older Templeogue roof is sometimes a repair and sometimes a renewal. The survey decides that, not the sales pitch.
Templeogue's 1940s and 1950s natural slate roofs are at or near the stage where a complete re-roof, with new underlay, battens and tiles, is the right call. Mortar ridge failure, valley lead deterioration and chimney haunch repairs are the main call-outs on the older stock.
The 1960s and 1970s concrete tile properties have their own pattern: dry-ridge failures and flat-roof extension issues where felt has perished. Knowing which era your house belongs to is the first step to knowing what it actually needs.
Every roof is different, but these are honest Templeogue ranges for 2026. We give you a written, fixed price after a free survey, so there are no surprises at the end.
What moves the price is scope, access, the roof material, and how much has already been let go. Where an old slate roof is genuinely past repair, we will price a full re-roof separately so you can compare like for like. A short inspection tells us which side of the range you are on.
We are a CIRI-registered contractor (Construction Industry Register Ireland), so you can check us independently before anyone sets foot on your roof. Every survey is done by a qualified roofer, not a salesperson, and you get a written condition report with a fixed-price quote within 48 hours.
Most Templeogue repairs are done in a single day, with larger flat-roof or ridge work taking two to three. If your slate has years left, we repair it. If it does not, we say so plainly and set out the re-roof option, with no pressure either way. We weatherproof anything urgent on the first visit and back the work with a written guarantee.

Most roof repairs in Templeogue fall between €300 and €2,500 in 2026. Minor work like a slipped slate or a small leak is typically €300 to €800, while ridge, flashing and chimney repairs run higher, often €600 to €1,500. A full re-roof on an older slate home is quoted separately. You get a written, fixed price after a free survey.
Most repairs in Templeogue are completed in a single day. Larger flat-roof sections or ridge renewals take two to three days, and a full re-roof on an older property runs longer again. If your roof is leaking, we weatherproof the affected area on the first visit before carrying out the permanent fix.
Ordinary roof repairs and like-for-like re-roofing do not need planning permission in Dublin. You may need it if you change the roof's shape, height or materials significantly, or if the property is protected or in a conservation area. We flag any of that during the survey in Templeogue.
The common culprits are slipped or cracked slates, failed ridge and hip mortar, worn lead flashing around chimneys and valleys, and blocked or broken gutters backing water up under the roofline. In Templeogue, ageing 1940s and 1950s slate and perished flat-roof felt on later extensions are frequent sources. Irish wind and rainfall speed all of these up.
As a rule of thumb, if problems are localised and the underlay and timbers are sound, a repair is the right call. Widespread slipping, sagging, multiple leaks and a failed or brittle underlay usually point to a re-roof. Many of Templeogue's 70 to 80-year-old slate roofs are at that replacement stage. A free inspection settles it.
