Roofs in Patrickswell

Patrickswell is south-west of the city, where the N20 and the N21 split. It has 317 households, and 97% of them live in a house rather than a flat, so most have a roof of their own to look after.

48% of homes were built before 1981. A roof that age has had decades of moss, and the tiles or slates need a look before anything is scraped.

56% of homes heat with oil, a sign of one-off and older houses outside the gas network, often with trees close by. Shaded roofs green up first.

Why do roofs in Patrickswell go green?

Damp and shade. Shannon Airport gets rain on 223 days a year and the air is damp most mornings (9am humidity averages 84%). North-facing slopes and roofs under trees green up first.

Can a roof be pressure washed?

No. A pressure washer strips the surface off concrete tiles, cracks old slates and drives water under the tiles and the ridge. The moss comes off by hand, then a moss killer goes on at low pressure.
