Dunmore East in numbers
The houses in Dunmore East
49% of Dunmore East's homes were built between 1991 and 2010 (CSO Census 2022), so most roofs are 15 to 35 years old: concrete tile or fibre-cement slate, where ridge tiles, valleys, fascia and gutters are usually the first jobs.
34.8% of its dwellings were holiday homes on census night 2022, against 3.9% county-wide. A holiday home's roof can leak for weeks before anyone sees the ceiling, so a look after each winter storm is worth it.
Dunmore East gets 944 mm of rain a year and 250 mm from December to February (Met Éireann, our 3 km mean), the driest of the 11 towns on this site.

Send this for a real priceHow this is worked out
No sums of ours: each line is a figure an Irish roofing firm or price guide publishes for that job, read on 3 November 2026 (HP Roofing's on 1 November 2026), with the VAT status as the source gives it. Where a source gives a figure for outside Dublin, Cork and Galway, that is the one shown, because Waterford is outside all three. It's a guide, never a quote. The roofer prices your roof after seeing it.
