Advanced Roof Inspection Technology
Drone surveys and thermal imaging detect heat loss, moisture and structural concerns invisible from ground level — without scaffolding or lifting a tile.
A family-run, fully insured Cork roofing contractor founded by Michael Casey in 2009 — backed by 17 years of work across 500+ Cork roofs and a 4.9-star Google rating from local homeowners.
Here's the thing about roofing companies in Cork — there's a lot of us. And honestly? Some of us shouldn't be trusted with your garden shed, let alone your family home. We started Keystone Roofing because we were tired of hearing stories about contractors who'd take the deposit and vanish, or do a half-job and disappear when the first storm proved their work couldn't handle Cork weather.
That's not us. We're the team that shows up when we say we will, does what we promise, and — here's the radical part — actually answers the phone when you call six months later.
We're not the biggest roofing company in Cork. What we are is a team that's been doing this for 17 years, learning every lesson the hard way so you don't have to. We've seen what works and what fails when Atlantic gales hit in January. We know which suppliers stand behind their products and which ones just have good marketing. And yes, we're fully insured and VAT registered — that's the baseline, not a selling point. What matters more is this: when your neighbour asks who did your roof, you'll actually recommend us.
We understand the financial investment a roof repair or replacement represents, which is why we provide photo evidence of all damage, written cost breakdowns, and honest recommendations — even when that means advising a simple repair instead of a full replacement. Our 17 years in the business mean we've seen every type of roofing challenge Cork's climate can deliver, and we have the expertise to solve them all.
Drone surveys and thermal imaging detect heat loss, moisture and structural concerns invisible from ground level — without scaffolding or lifting a tile.
Detailed written quotes covering materials, labour and timelines before any work begins. No surprise charges, no upfront deposits, no pressure tactics.
Every Keystone team member is trained in height safety and modern roofing techniques. Fully insured with comprehensive public liability cover.
Storm damage at 2am is a crisis, not an inconvenience. Our 24/7 emergency line gets us on site within 60 minutes across Cork City and the inner suburbs.
Materials engineered for Atlantic conditions — wind-uplift rated tiles, breathable membranes and lead flashings sourced from suppliers who stand behind their products.
Daily debris containment, protected landscaping, full waste removal at handover. The only evidence we were there is a watertight new roof.
Michael founded Keystone Roofing in 2009, but his career in roofing started a long time before that — growing up in the family roofing business and serving his apprenticeship in Cork and Dublin from 2000 onwards. Roofing is what the Casey family has done for two generations, and every roof Keystone puts on today carries that same craft and accountability.
"I started as an apprentice roofer in Cork and Dublin back in 2000, learning the trade from my father in our family's roofing business. I still go up on every re-roof that comes through the door — I won't send a homeowner a team I wouldn't trust on my own house."
Today, Michael leads a team of skilled tradespeople who share his commitment to honest pricing and quality workmanship. He personally surveys every major project and is a licensed aerial drone operator — your roof inspection is done safely from the air with no ladders on a pitched roof, no guesswork, and you get the photo evidence before a single quote is written.
Your peace of mind starts with verifiable paperwork. Keystone Roofing is a Companies Registration Office–registered business operating from City Quarter, Lapp's Quay in Cork City, with full public-liability cover through AXA. Every project includes written quotes, written guarantees, and HSA-compliant site practice.
When you hire Keystone, you're hiring an accountable, insured Cork contractor — not an uninsured trader operating from the back of a van. Broker certificates available on request before any work begins.
A small, skilled crew of roofers who learned the trade properly, work to consistent standards, and turn up when they say they will. Most of the team has been with Keystone for years — that continuity is what makes the workmanship stand up over time.
From slate re-roofs in Cork City conservation areas to concrete-tile replacements on commuter-belt estates and drone-led inspections after Atlantic storms — a sample of the work we do every week.
As a Cork-based business, we understand the unique roofing challenges our local climate presents. We know which materials perform best in our salt-laden coastal air, which designs handle our wind-driven rain, and which techniques prevent the condensation issues common in Irish homes. This local expertise combines with national professional standards to deliver roofing solutions that protect your investment for decades, not just seasons.
We've protected hundreds of Cork homes from Douglas to Ballincollig, Carrigaline to Cobh and beyond. Many of our clients call us first for every roofing concern because they've experienced our commitment to quality, transparency and customer satisfaction firsthand.
