Asbestos removal in Kilkenny.
Kilkenny sits on the M9 between Dublin and Waterford, so it draws on two contractor supply areas at once. Here is how that reaches the city, the north of the county and the towns close to Waterford.

The Kilkenny market
Kilkenny has a well-preserved medieval city, market towns and a large rural and farm building stock, with asbestos cement common on pre-2000 roofs and outbuildings. The main centres are Kilkenny city, Castlecomer, Thomastown, Callan, Graiguenamanagh, Ballyragget and Mooncoin.
Kilkenny's position is its advantage. The M9 puts Dublin contractors within a direct run, and firms working the Waterford and Wexford area cover the south of the county. That gives the county two routes to supply rather than one, which usually keeps the travel element moderate.
Coverage across the county
- Kilkenny city and central, the main service area.
- North Kilkenny (Castlecomer, Ballyragget) toward the M9 and Carlow.
- South Kilkenny (Thomastown, Mooncoin) close to Waterford.
- West Kilkenny (Callan) and the Nore and Barrow valleys.
What it costs in Kilkenny
There is no published price list for asbestos removal in Kilkenny or anywhere in Ireland. Two supply routes can keep travel moderate, but the job is still priced on area, access, material condition and disposal. The cost guide explains the drivers, and roof removal covers the most common job.

Frequently asked questions
Are there asbestos removal contractors based in Kilkenny?
There is no ARCA-registered Republic firm based in Kilkenny, but the county is well placed for supply. It sits on the M9 between Dublin and Waterford, so Dublin contractors reach it directly, and firms working the Waterford and Wexford area cover the south of the county. See the contractor guide.
Does South Kilkenny get covered from Waterford?
Yes. South Kilkenny towns such as Mooncoin and Thomastown sit close to Waterford city, so firms working the south-east routinely cover them. If you are in the south of the county, the Waterford page describes the same supply area, and the Wexford page covers the eastern side.
Where does Kilkenny asbestos waste go?
Asbestos waste from Kilkenny is hazardous waste, double-wrapped and carried by a permitted waste collector to an EPA-licensed transfer station, or exported under Transfrontier Shipment rules to a specialist facility in mainland Europe. The south-east has reasonable export logistics through Rosslare and the regional transfer network. See the disposal guide.
