Houses and rooflines in Laois
Just over half the homes in Laois are detached (55%), against 41% nationally. The towns are estates of semis and terraces; the countryside is detached houses and bungalows with four sides of eaves.
33% of Laois homes were built before 1981, 23% between 1981 and 2000 and 36% between 2001 and 2010. That's a lot of houses from the 1980s to the 2000s, the 4th highest share of the 26 counties: their first uPVC or painted timber boards are now 15 to 45 years old, and that's where most replacement work comes from.
Portlaoise gets about 938 mm of rain a year, October the wettest month, and Mountmellick about 941 mm. Most of it falls between October and January, when work at height stops for the wind and the worst showers.
We cover all of Co. Laois. The largest towns, Census 2022: Portlaoise (23,494), Portarlington (9,288), Mountmellick (4,905), Mountrath (2,070), Abbeyleix (1,897), Stradbally (1,404).

FAQ
Questions we get asked
How much does fascia and soffit replacement cost in Laois?
€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. Laois quotes we've seen run from about €1,000 plus VAT for white boards, gutters and downpipes on a 3-bed semi to €6,500 plus VAT for a large house, which is why a written price after a look matters.
Do you cover Portarlington, Mountmellick and the rest of Laois?
Yes. Requests from anywhere in Co. Laois, including Portlaoise, Portarlington, Mountmellick, Mountrath, Abbeyleix, go to one fascia and soffit company that covers your county.
How old are the rooflines in Laois?
55% of Laois homes were built before 2001 and 33% before 1981, on Census 2022, so most rooflines are 25 years old or more.
Does the weather in Laois matter?
It does for timing. Mountmellick gets about 941 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.
