Houses and rooflines in Skibbereen
Skibbereen has 2,903 people in 1,249 households (Census 2022), 83% of them in a house rather than a flat. Skibbereen's houses are older: 45% were built before 1981. Houses of that age mostly had painted timber fascia, and many were capped over in uPVC since. Before anyone caps over capping, ask them to look underneath.
Skibbereen gets about 1,403 mm of rain a year, December the wettest month (Met Éireann 1991–2020, our 3 km mean). That's one of the five highest of the 22 Cork towns here: gutters carry a lot of water, the fascia takes the strain, and soft timber shows up sooner. Ask for deep flow or square line gutters on a big roof. Being on the coast, salt air is hard on painted timber and cheap fixings: ask for stainless steel screws.
We cover all of Skibbereen and the area around it, including Bantry, Dunmanway, Clonakilty. Skibbereen is 67 km from Cork city as the crow flies.
