Roofers in
Kanturk.
Leak, slipped slate, or an old roof giving up in Kanturk? Roofers Cork survey it at no charge and put a fixed price on paper.
Kanturk roofs, and their weak points.
Kanturk is a small town in north-west Cork, close to open farmland and a river. Its houses are mostly terraced streets of the interwar years and estates from the seventies onward.
Farmland brings its own weather: wide skies, long runs of wind and rain, and dust and leaves in autumn. Roofers Cork see the effect of that on simple, well-built roofs. Moss builds up, valleys silt, and the same few tiles slip at the same exposed corners. Interwar timber is often sturdy, which means repairs usually pay. We are open about it when a repair is all you need and a replacement would be money wasted.
Small towns tend to run on word of mouth, and there is nothing wrong with asking around. We would suggest asking for the same things from anyone you invite to look at your roof: a written survey, a fixed price, the guarantee in writing and proof of insurance. Roofers Cork carry public liability of €6.5M and employer liability of €13M, and we are happy to send the details with the quote.
Problems we meet most.
- Slipped tiles at exposed corners.
- Valleys silted up with leaf and moss.
- Interwar roofs with sound timber and worn tiles.
- Estate felt aged behind clean-looking tiles.
We look at the corners and valleys first, since that is where rural weather does its work. Then the felt from the attic. A roof that can be mended will be reported as mendable.
Nothing starts until the price is on paper, and the survey that produces it costs nothing. Guide figures for 2026 are on the roof prices page.
Roof work we do in Kanturk.
Roof Repairs
Find the real point of entry, then fix that: slipped slates, split flashings, a ridge that has let go.
Roof Replacement
When patching has stopped paying, the old covering comes off and a new slate or tile roof goes on, backed by the Lifetime Leak Guarantee.
Flat Roofs
A flat roof over an extension, garage or dormer, relaid in EPDM or GRP so water leaves it instead of sitting on it.
Emergency Roof Repair
A live leak or storm damage: the opening made watertight today, the proper repair planned once it is dry.
Re-felting & Battening
The membrane and battens under your slates wear out before the slates do. We renew them and relay what you have.
Lead Flashing & Chimneys
Lead dressed where the roof meets a wall or stack, and the chimney itself pointed so it stops taking in rain.
Roof Inspections
A written, photographed report on the state of the roof, taken from the attic and from the slope.
Commercial Roofing
Shops, offices, units and public buildings: low-pitch and flat roofs kept watertight around the working day.
Asked about roofing in Kanturk.
Will someone come out to Kanturk?
You can. Kanturk is covered, along with Mallow and Macroom. Phone 021 212 9985 or send the form below, and a time is arranged for someone to come and look.
How much should I budget for a repair in Kanturk?
For a leak in 2026, expect something in the €400 to €2,500 band plus VAT. Something like valleys silted up with leaf and moss lands at the low or the high end depending on access. Your own figure is set in writing once we have been up.
How much for replacing a whole roof in Kanturk?
Slate comes to €12,000–€28,000+ and concrete tile to €8,000–€18,000, plus VAT, as 2026 guides. The survey fixes the real figure. When the whole roof is replaced, the Lifetime Leak Guarantee is added to the ten-year workmanship cover.
Do you take storm calls in Kanturk?
Ring 021 212 9985. Our target is to reach you inside 4 hrs, make the roof safe first and repair it once the weather allows. A written report for your insurer follows.
Repair or new roof: which suits a Kanturk house?
A single point of failure suits a repair. A slope that keeps leaking in new places usually does not. Where the trouble is valleys silted up with leaf and moss, a repair often holds. The written survey sets out the choice.
Does the survey in Kanturk cost anything?
No. The survey and the written price are free. A separate formal inspection report, for an insurer or a sale, is priced separately, at the point of booking.
