Rathgar homeowners trust Peak Roofing for velux & skylights. As a registered Velux installer, our team supplies and fits the full range of Velux roof windows across Rathgar — for new installations, loft conversions and like-for-like replacements. We also carry out repairs to existing Velux units where the flashing kit, frame seal or glazing has failed, which is among the most common sources of persistent roof leaks in Rathgar properties with Velux windows installed 15 or more years ago. Installation starts from €800 per window, supply and fit. Free survey and same-day written quote available.

Rathgar is a prosperous Victorian and Edwardian south Dublin suburb known for its large red-brick detached and semi-detached houses, tree-lined avenues and conservation areas around Rathgar Road and Zion Road. Properties in Rathgar are predominantly Victorian and Edwardian large detached and semi-detached red-brick houses, some 1930s detached residences, period conversions. Common roof issues we address here include natural slate replacement and repair, lead valley and hip flashing failure, chimney stack repointing and rebuild, moss and lichen growth on older pitches, failing valley gutters on large period properties, making professional roofing maintenance essential for Rathgar properties. Our roofers understand the construction methods and typical materials used in Rathgar — every inspection is free and every job begins with a written quote.
