About Waterford City Roofing

Who is behind
Waterford City Roofing.

Waterford City Roofing is the local face of Recommended Roofing and works to the same insurance, guarantees and pricing.

01 / The company

One firm, a Waterford name.

Recommended Roofing, which started in 2019, is the company that does the work behind this name. Nothing separates the two legally, so a Waterford City Roofing quotation is a Recommended Roofing quotation and carries the same cover and guarantees. The company's own website is recommendedroofing.ie.

We have no shop front where you can drop in. Contact is by email or through the form here, and a surveyor then comes to the house.

The aim is simple: a roof that stays dry, a price that never changes after you have seen it, and a customer who would happily recommend us.

02 / How a job runs

Four steps, in this order.

01

First contact

You write through the form, saying what the roof is doing and where the house is.

02

A surveyor visits

The roof is looked at from the slope and from the attic and photographed. No price comes from a description alone.

03

A price in writing

A set figure, with the findings listed and the exclusions spelled out.

04

The job and the handover

Safe access, the work, a clean site, then the guarantee in your hands.

03 / Cover and credentials

Insured, and glad to be asked.

WorkmanshipTen-year written guarantee covering installation and repairs
Whole roofsLifetime Leak Guarantee added when a roof is fully replaced

To be clear, Guild membership is membership of a trade association and is not a qualification, and we do not present it as one.

04 / Guarantees in plain terms

If it ever leaks.

Ten years of written cover apply to the workmanship in installation jobs and repairs. Should a fault turn out to come from how the job was done, we come back and fix it. If the whole roof has been replaced, the Lifetime Leak Guarantee is added on top.

Part-roof work and repairs keep the ten-year cover. Before you accept anything, the quotation tells you which of the two applies.

05 / Our work on film

Real jobs, filmed on site.

Short films from Recommended Roofing jobs. They were filmed on recent jobs elsewhere in Ireland, so you can see how a crew works and how a roof is found before it is fixed. Press play to watch.
