Roofing in County Cavan

Roofer in Cavan — Roof Repairs, Maintenance & New Roofs

Cavan gets more than its share of rain, and roofs there are judged on how well water gets away rather than how they look on a dry day. Blocked valleys, overflowing gutters and tired flashing cause the majority of the damp we are called out to look at across the county.

What the Cavan climate does to roofs

Moss and constant damp

Sheltered, damp conditions and plenty of tree cover mean moss builds quickly on Cavan roofs. It holds water against the slates, blocks valleys and fills gutters, and clearing it is one of the highest-value bits of maintenance a homeowner can do.

Drainage that cannot keep up

Undersized or badly fallen gutters cope in light rain and fail completely in a downpour. Correcting falls, renewing outlets and clearing downpipes usually solves damp problems that had been blamed on the roof itself.

Chimneys taking the weather

Driving rain and frost work on chimney mortar hard in Cavan. Repointing the stack, renewing the flaunching and putting proper lead flashing in place is a job that pays for itself in avoided ceiling damage.
