Service Overview
Specialist roof repairs across Limerick and Munster
Avon Guard Roofing has been carrying out roof repairs throughout Limerick, Clare, Tipperary, Cork, Kerry and Waterford for over twenty years. Fast, permanent repairs to slipped slates, cracked tiles, failed flashing and persistent leaks on any pitched or flat roof. Whether the property is a city terrace in Limerick, an exposed coastal cottage in west Clare or a commercial unit on the Raheen or Annacotty estates, the approach is the same: inspect properly, specify honestly, and finish to a standard that still looks right in twenty winters.
Irish roofs fail for predictable reasons. Sustained driving rain finds any gap in the detailing, Atlantic gusts lift anything not mechanically fixed, and long damp spells feed moss that holds water against the covering. That is why our roof repairs specifications lean on breathable membranes, treated battens, stainless or aluminium fixings, Code 4 and Code 5 lead, and mechanically fixed dry ridge and verge systems rather than mortar that will crack again.
Work begins with a free roof inspection. We climb or fly the roof, photograph every defect, and explain what genuinely needs doing now, what can wait a season, and what does not need doing at all. You then receive a written, itemised quotation by email — scaffolding, materials, labour and waste removal all listed separately — valid for ninety days, with no obligation and nobody calling to chase you.
On site, crews arrive on the agreed date with proper scaffolded access. Drives and planting are protected, the property is kept weather-tight throughout, and every evening the site is left tidy. When we finish, we walk the job with you, take completion photographs from roof level, and issue your written workmanship guarantee. We then ring you after the first spell of heavy rain to make sure everything is exactly as it should be.
