The capital packs a third of the country's population into Georgian terraces, red-brick Victorian suburbs, sprawling 20th-century estates and a wave of new apartments. Space is tight, period stock is old, and planning rules are strict.
Local demand: Attic conversions, side-return and rear extensions, full rewires and energy retrofits dominate — Dublin's older housing and high property values make upgrading rather than moving the norm.

What Dublin homeowners hire electricians for
Electricians install and maintain the wiring, fuseboards, sockets and lighting that keep your home safe and running. Because bad electrical work is a genuine fire and shock risk, much of it is legally controlled in Ireland: works like a new fuseboard or a rewire must be certified by a Registered Electrical Contractor and issued with a completion certificate. Never cut corners here — always insist on the paperwork.
- Full and partial house rewires
