Woodworm Treatment in Tullow
Near the Slaney bridge and Father John Murphy memorial
Tullow's position on the River Slaney and its mix of Georgian streetscape with newer estates means we cover everything here from heritage stonework to 1990s timber-frame homes. The surrounding agricultural land also brings a strong demand for outbuilding and barn treatment. Tullow's residential stock divides cleanly into three eras: the original Georgian and Victorian properties along Church Street, Castle Street and the Square; the post-war and 1970s semi-detached estates; and the modern timber-frame developments to the south and east.

Local pubs, the Mart, the dairy co-op buildings, and the parish church of the Most Holy Rosary are all properties we've worked on in or around Tullow. Equestrian and dairy farm outbuildings between Tullow, Rathvilly and Hacketstown are a regular thread of our commercial work — old hay sheds with timber purlins are particularly vulnerable. We also serve the small industrial units on the Carlow road.

Outbuildings around Tullow benefit from boron surface treatment paired with simple ventilation improvements, which we'll specify in writing. For the period townhouses on Church Street and Castle Street, we'd typically combine surface treatment of the roof with injection of any structural oak. Timber-frame homes get a targeted approach focused on the affected stud bay.
