How to pick the best roofers in Dublin.
Best roofers Dublin is a fair thing to search for, and a hard one to answer, because every firm says it. So this page does it differently. It lists what the best roofer in Dublin should be able to show you, and then shows what Recommended Roofing can.
Recommended Roofing started trading in 2019. Best Roofers Dublin is its Dublin site: one company, one set of crews, one guarantee. People also reach us searching for the best roofing company in Dublin, the best roofing contractors in Dublin, trusted roofers in Dublin or the best roofers near me. Whatever the words, the test is the same: evidence you can check.
Read it, compare us with anyone else you are asking, and then decide. If you want the survey, it is free.

What we found, and what we did.
Four Dublin jobs, told plainly. Every filmed job is under roofing jobs in Dublin.
Slate roof replaced
The slates, battens and felt had been faulty since the house was roofed, which ruled out a patch: nothing sound remained to hold one. The entire roof came off and went back new, including the battens and felt.
A leaking slate roof
An actively leaking slate roof, filmed as the strip began so the condition underneath is on record. It was stripped and replaced in full.
Felt roof and an internal leak
A failing felt roof had already let water into the rooms below. The roof was repaired and replaced, and the damage inside made good.
A serious roof leak
A leak at an occupied, working premises. The job was to find the real cause and explain it on site, with the building still in use.
The work itself
Photographs from Recommended Roofing's own jobs. Each caption says only what the picture shows.
A roofer on the slope of a house beside a scissor lift, with safety tape set out below
A roofer in hi-vis beside a chimney, the slope stripped back to membrane and battens
A roofer on a mobile access platform, working at height
A finished dark slate roof with a chimney at each end
A period house with its roof edge and fascia finished
Two roofers fitting a roof window into a slate roof
A flat roof with a waterproof coating run up to a chimney upstand
Roof timbers seen from inside an attic, where a survey starts
The same jobs on film
Short films taken on site. Press play to watch.
Proof from the big names
A logo on its own proves little, so here is the work. These are roles Recommended Roofing already publishes on its own site, shown with the photographs and film from the jobs.
Branch building maintenance and re-roofingBank of Ireland
Chosen only after pre-qualification on insurance, safety systems and financial standing. A bank checks all three before it lets anyone onto a branch roof.
The photographs show the work in progress: a branch building fully scaffolded for roof repairs, the slate edge of a bank roof being put right, and the gutters of a second branch, in Sligo, being restored. Sligo is outside Dublin; it is here because a bank's branches are the best reference a roofer can have.
Roof leak repair and waterproofing, Dublin 7Health Service Executive
An occupied, HSE-funded neuro-rehabilitation service with a leaking roof. The film shows the missing lead flashing that let water into the walls. The leak was repaired and the roof waterproofed under a full RAMS and safety statement, with the building in daily use.

Dublin reviews, word for word.
Rated 5.0 out of 5 from 20+ Google reviews. All eight of the Dublin ones, exactly as they were written.
“We recently had Recommended Roofing replace the roof on our extension, and we couldn't be happier with the results. Gerry, the business owner, was professional, friendly, and personally ensured the work was completed to a very high standard. The workmanship was excellent—the new roof looks great and feels solid and well-built. Gerry and his team were approachable throughout the project, always happy to answer any questions we had. The job was completed within the expected timeframe, with no unnecessary delays. Once the work was finished, the team left the site clean and tidy, with no mess left behind. Overall, it was a great experience from start to finish. We highly recommend Gerry and the team at Recommended Roofing and would definitely use their services again.”
“Really happy with service provided. They were extremely helpful and efficient from start to finish. An assessment and quote were provided the day after I first got in touch, and the repair was completed within a week. The issue and proposed solution were clearly explained, and I really appreciated that they recommended a proportionate repair rather than simply suggesting everything needed to be replaced. Very professional, straightforward and efficient service. Would definitely recommend!”
“From the very first point of contact with Gerry to the very end the service was top class . Gerry himself is a head of knowledge and just an all round great friendly guy . The 2 lads that did the work - replaced all the fascia , gutters and down pipes etc , worked solid , even in the heat wave and its wasn't a bother to them . I would / will recommend them to everyone . Gerry and the lads - Thank you so much , Denise and Alan Moghal- Baldoyle , Dublin”
“Really enjoyed working with Gerry and team on the lining/ gutter fascia's and soffit works they've done for us. The team were on time and professional and remediated any issues that arose immediately. Definitely reccomend them !”

“Gerry, John, Kesha and Micha did an excellent and professional job. We are delighted with the finished work. No more climbing ladders and trying to fix leaks for me!!”

Recommended roofers in Dublin
Why customers recommend Recommended Roofing, in their own words.
South Dublin, North Dublin and the city.
The city's roofs are not one type. Georgian and Victorian terraces, mid-century semis, newer estates, flats and commercial units all need a different eye, and the coast adds salt and wind. Recommended Roofing has a page for each part of Dublin:
- best roofers South Dublin
- best roofers North Dublin
- Dublin City roofers
- Recommended Roofing's Dublin page
- the Recommended Roofing home page

These are guide ranges for 2026, not a quote, and VAT goes on top of each one. Roof material, pitch, access and the state of the timbers all move a real price. The figure you pay is the one fixed in writing after the survey.
From first call to hand-back.
Survey
Someone goes up, looks at the slope and checks the attic. It costs nothing.
Written price
A fixed figure on paper: what was found, what will be done, what the price leaves out.
The work
Safe access goes up, the old covering comes off where it must, and the site is kept clear.
Hand-back
The finished work is shown to you and the written guarantee is handed over.
Everything behind the claim.
Best roofers in Dublin, answered.
Who are the best roofers in Dublin?
Nobody can honestly name one firm as the best for every roof, and we will not claim it. What you can do is judge firms on evidence. Recommended Roofing is rated 5.0 out of 5 from 20+ Google reviews, gives a written 10-year guarantee and prices every job in writing after a free survey. Compare that with anyone else you are asking.
How do I choose the best roofer in Dublin?
Ask for the same four things from every firm: a survey before a price, the price in writing, the guarantee in writing, and proof of insurance. Then read reviews written by customers about work like yours. Be wary of anyone who quotes for a roof they have not seen.
What makes a good roofing company in Dublin?
It looks before it prices, explains the fault in plain words, repairs when a repair will do and replaces when it will not, carries insurance for the public and its workers, and stands behind the work in writing.
How much do roofers in Dublin charge?
As 2026 guides, plus VAT: a roof leak repair €400–€2,500, chimney work €800–€3,500, a whole concrete tile roof €8,000–€18,000 and a whole slate roof €12,000–€28,000 or more. The survey turns a range into one fixed written price.
Is Best Roofers Dublin a different company from Recommended Roofing?
No. Best Roofers Dublin is the Dublin site of Recommended Roofing, the same company with the same crews, insurance and guarantees. A quote from this site is a Recommended Roofing quote.
Does the survey cost anything?
No. The survey and the written price are free, and the price is fixed once it is on paper.
What guarantee do I get?
A written 10-year workmanship guarantee covers installation work and repairs. A full re-roof comes with the Lifetime Leak Guarantee as well. A repair or part-roof job falls under the 10-year guarantee.
Should I repair my roof or replace it?
If the fault is in one place, such as slipped slates or failed lead, a repair usually does it. If the felt and battens have gone across a whole slope, patching only postpones the bill. The survey tells you which you have.
Is the work insured, and are you in a trade body?
Insurance runs to €6.5 million for the public and €13 million for employees. The firm belongs to the National Guild of Master Craftsmen, a trade body, which is not the same as holding a qualification.
What if water is coming in right now?
Ring 01 265 7795. We aim to be with you within 6 hrs, secure the roof, then repair it properly when conditions allow, and send your insurer a written report.
Do you cover South Dublin and North Dublin?
Yes. Recommended Roofing works across South Dublin, North Dublin and Dublin City, and has a page for each.
How do I book, and when are you open?
Ring 01 265 7795, email [email protected] or send the form on this page. Mon–Sat 8:00–18:00 , Sun closed.
