Gutter problems don't wait for a convenient moment. We run mobile teams throughout South Dublin, so if something's overflowing or hanging off in Rathmines we can usually be there today.
In Rathmines, replacing the gutters on a typical semi (about 20 metres) costs €1,000–€1,400 in uPVC, €1,300–€1,800 in aluminium and €2,100–€2,800 in cast iron, and a gutter repair starts at €500, with most between €1,000 and €1,900.
These are indicative prices: the length of run, the material, the height and access, and whether the fascia behind is sound all move them, and the figure is confirmed free after a survey. Quotes and inspections are free, with no call-out fee and a written breakdown before anything starts.
Every job carries a 10-year written guarantee, and a full gutter replacement also carries our Lifetime Leak Guarantee.
Recommended Roofing is managed day to day by Gerard O’Gorman, General Manager.
Rathmines is dense Victorian and Edwardian red-brick, much of it converted to flats, running from the canal down to Rathgar with tree-lined roads throughout.
Converted period houses are the challenge here — multiple occupiers, shared downpipes, parapet gutters hidden behind the front parapet, and heavy leaf fall from the street trees. Leaks are rarely where the damp appears.
