Yes, and it's the single most common Swords job we run. The 90s, 2000s and 2010s estates in Holywell, Glasmore Park and River Valley were laid with factory-finished mortar bedding that starts weakening at 15–20 years. Tiles lift in storms, the bed cracks, water tracks down the gable. We re-bed the full ridge with a waterproof-additive mix, or switch to a mechanical dry-ridge system — patching one tile rarely lasts the next winter.

Yes — the 1970s and 80s dormer-style detached and semis in Brackenstown and Boroimhe are a regular job. The valley flashings are usually the failure point: the original lead is now perished at the upstand, and the felt under the tiles has hardened. We re-lead the full valley run in code 5 rather than patching, and replace the felt where the inspection shows it's gone.

Yes. The small historic core around Swords Castle and Main Street has period chimney stacks needing lime-based repointing and proper code 4/5 re-leading at the apron — not modern cement and mastic. We quote in writing with the mortar mix and lead grade specified, so the work matches what's already on the streetscape.

The quote covers the inspection with photos, scope of work, materials by type and grade (tile colour and profile, lead code, mortar mix, fixing system), scaffold, labour, debris removal and our 10-year workmanship guarantee. Fixed price, fully insured, no day-of additions without your written approval. We do enough Swords work that we can put you in touch with recent customers near your address before you decide.
