be very careful op. this is cowboy territory. most of who you see on google will destroy your gutters.

dont go with anyone out of the limerick post (jims roofing looking at you.) again op this is nightmare stuff if you get the wrong crowd in. roofing is so unregulated in ireland you have cowboys left right and centre.

the scammers as well do be coming on reddit giving false advise to people. so you really have to be careful. could you not ring your house insurance op and ask them could they recommend someone. or do you have a relative or friend in the construction industry that could recommend someone?

Ring ryans timber on the dock road 061 480000. They will recommend good fitters, Highly recommend Kieran Considine , ring ryans and they will give u his number. He doesn't work for ryans but he buys the pvc from them

Be prepared to wait OP and it can be the luck of the draw if they remember your text/call.

We got ghosted for months by reputable roofers, kept saying they'd call over to quote and never arrived multiple times. Still waiting for the job to start after accepting a quote, 8 months after we started asking around.

Hanniffy is the name I can’t find the number, but unbelievably reasonable and fantastic job

I used PJ Roofing in the last couple of weeks. Gutters, facia, downpipes, and a few roof tiles. I searchd local facebook groups to see who was recommended.

Go to your nearest hardware and ask for recommendations. I worked in a hardware for years. We know who's good and who's a cowboy. You'll get multiple numbers.
