Frequently Asked Questions
Will my insurer pay for boarding up?
Most home insurance covers emergency boarding after an insured event. Keep the invoice and photos.
How much does board-up service cost in Dublin?
Typically €120–€350. The exact price depends on access, the extent of the work and the materials needed.
How urgent is board-up service?
Immediately.
Why are my double-glazed windows misty between the panes?
The seal on the glass unit has failed and moist air has got in. The glass unit can usually be replaced without replacing the frame.
Do I need planning permission for new windows?
Like-for-like replacement usually doesn't. Protected structures, some conservation areas and changes to the size or style of front windows may need permission.
Are there grants for new windows?
SEAI has supported window and door upgrades under some of its home energy schemes. Check seai.ie for current terms before you commit.
