Houses and rooflines in Dublin
Dublin is the one county where most homes aren't houses with long rooflines: 33% are terraced, 30% semi-detached and only 10% detached, with a large share of apartments that have no fascia of their own. Most Dublin jobs are a semi's three sides or a terrace's front and back.
49% of Dublin homes were built before 1981, 23% between 1981 and 2000 and 19% between 2001 and 2010. Older houses like these mostly had painted timber fascia. Many have been capped over at some point, so check what's under the uPVC before anyone quotes for more capping.
Dublin city centre gets about 753 mm of rain a year, November the wettest month, and Tallaght about 840 mm. That's one of the drier parts of the country, so the boards tend to fail from age and sun rather than from water. Near the sea, salt air shortens the life of painted timber, which is one more reason most people go to uPVC.

FAQ
Questions we get asked
How much does fascia and soffit replacement cost in Dublin?
€900 to €1,800 for a mid-terrace, €1,000 to €2,500 for a semi and €2,000 to €4,000+ for a detached house, supplied and fitted. The written price depends on the metres of roofline, access and any rot. Dublin quotes we've seen: €1,500 to €2,500 for a three-sided roofline on a semi, and about €180 a metre for new gutters, fascia and soffit together. A 4-bed semi with a single-storey garage came to about €3,000 all in.
Do you cover Swords, Balbriggan and the rest of Dublin?
Yes. Requests from anywhere in Co. Dublin, including Dublin city and suburbs, Swords, Balbriggan, Malahide, Rush, go to one fascia and soffit company that covers your county.
How old are the rooflines in Dublin?
73% of Dublin homes were built before 2001 and 49% before 1981, on Census 2022, so most rooflines are 25 years old or more.
Does the weather in Dublin matter?
It does for timing. Tallaght gets about 840 mm of rain a year; wind and heavy showers stop work at height, so a winter job can run a day longer. uPVC itself doesn't mind the rain.
Will someone come and look before pricing?
Yes. The company looks at the roofline first, because rot behind old boards only shows up close, then gives you the price in writing.
