📍 Knocknacarra, Co. Galway, Ireland
← All Galway roofingKnocknacarra is Galway city's largest residential suburb, developed from the 1980s through the 2000s on the western edge of the city. The housing stock is predominantly concrete interlocking tile semi-detached and detached, with integral garages and rear flat-roof extensions. The exposed western position — close to the open Atlantic countryside — means wind loading on these properties is higher than for comparable estates in more sheltered Irish cities.
Knocknacarra's western position on the city edge means Atlantic wind exposure is above average. Ridge tile movement and verge failures on the exposed west and south-west-facing elevations are more common here than in the city's eastern suburbs. Flat-roof integral garage replacements and dry-ridge failures are the dominant call-outs on the 1980s to 2000s concrete tile stock.
When you search for roofers near me in Knocknacarra, you need a team with a track record in the area — not a national call centre that subcontracts locally. Recommended Roofing's Galway team has direct knowledge of the housing stock, local planning requirements, and typical roofing problems across Knocknacarra and the surrounding area. Every survey is carried out in person by a qualified roofer, and every quote is written and fixed-price.
