Learn moreOur Swords work is mostly in the modern estates — the typical job is a roof-void treatment after an attic conversion or insulation upgrade reveals Common Furniture Beetle activity. We also treat the older properties in the heart of Swords village and the cottages of nearby Donabate, Portrane and Rush, where original roof timbers from the 1800s and early 1900s are still in service.
The hotels and conference facilities near Dublin Airport, retail-park units on the Pavilions side, GP surgeries, schools, and the airport hotel estates are all regular commercial clients. We've also treated several heritage properties in the Swords Castle environs.
Swords Castle and the Ward River Valley
Modern Swords estates respond well to a single-day boron treatment of the roof void, often combined with simple ventilation improvements we'll specify in our report. For older properties in the village and the coastal cottages we use a more cautious heritage approach.
