01 / Roofs in Douglas

How roofs age in Douglas.

Douglas is a big suburb south of the city, with a village at its heart, a large shopping centre and estates built from the 1960s through to the 2000s.

Much of the housing is concrete tile on a simple pitch, now forty to sixty years old, and a great many houses have had extensions with flat roofs added. The two together make the usual pair of calls: ridge and felt on the old tile roof, and a leaking flat roof over the kitchen or garage.

02 / Typical faults

Problems we meet most.

  • Ridge and verge mortar cracking on forty-year-old tile roofs.
  • Flat extension roofs that pond and split.
  • Moss lifting tiles on shaded slopes.
  • Felt gone brittle with age.
03 / Where we would begin

On an estate house we start at the ridge, the verge and the extension's flat roof, then check the felt.

We open every job with a free survey and put a fixed price in writing. Guide prices for 2026 are on our services page.

Roughly €12,000–€28,000+ for a complete slate roof and €8,000–€18,000 for concrete tile, as a 2026 guide. Size, pitch and the state of the timber underneath move the figure. A complete replacement carries the Lifetime Leak Guarantee.

Do you answer emergency calls in Douglas?

We aim to be there within 4 hrs, to stop the water coming in and to give you a written report for the insurer. The number is 021 419 3077.

How do I decide between repairing and replacing in Douglas?

A local fault such as one slipped slate, a cracked ridge or a split flashing is a repair. When felt and battens have failed over a whole slope, a new covering costs less than repeated patching. The written survey gives you the answer.

Does a survey in Douglas cost anything?

Not when it is for a repair or replacement quote. A separate written inspection report is priced when you book.
