Woodworm Treatment
in Wicklow
County Wicklow — the Garden of Ireland — is the most topographically varied county in Leinster, and its property stock reflects that. From the Victorian seaside terraces of Bray and Greystones, through the upland stone cottages of the Wicklow Mountains, to the heritage estates of Powerscourt, Russborough and Avondale, we cover the entire county. Wicklow residential work splits between three streams.

Learn moreThe first is the Victorian and Edwardian coastal terraces of Bray, Greystones, Wicklow Town and Arklow, where Common Furniture Beetle dominates and coastal damp adds a secondary factor. The second is the upland and mountain stone cottages around Roundwood, Laragh, Glendalough and the Sally Gap, where original Scots pine roof timbers are highly susceptible to Common Furniture Beetle. The third is the heritage estate fabric of Powerscourt, Russborough and Avondale, where conservation-grade methods are the norm.
Our Wicklow commercial work covers Powerscourt House and the surrounding estate properties (when consultants ask), the Powerscourt Hotel and other major country-house hotels (Druids Glen, the Glenview), the Greystones marina and Bray seafront hospitality, the Russborough House environs, Avondale's Parnell properties, the major heritage attractions at Glendalough, parish churches across every parish, schools, the M11-corridor business parks, and a strong rota of country pubs across the entire county. Wicklow's variety drives a varied treatment specification. For coastal Bray and Greystones we include moisture assessment as standard.
For the upland cottages around Laragh, Roundwood and Glendalough we use the standard boron protocol, often paired with simple ventilation upgrades. For the heritage estate fabric we use only conservation-grade methods and handle all protected-structure paperwork.
"Our upland cottage near Glendalough had serious woodworm in the original Scots pine roof and we'd been told it was untreatable. The team treated it in two days — the cottage is back in service and the guarantee is properly documented."
