The Wexford market
Wexford has substantial pre-2000 housing across the towns and a large rural and coastal building stock, much of it with asbestos cement roofs and cladding. The main towns are Wexford town, Enniscorthy, Gorey, New Ross and Bunclody.
What sets Wexford apart is supply. Most Irish counties have no ARCA-registered removal firm, but Gravity Construction, one of only three in the Republic, is based in the county. Add the M11 link to Dublin for north Wexford and Rosslare Europort for waste export, and Wexford has one of the stronger logistics positions in the country. That tends to keep travel premiums modest compared with the remote west or south-west.
Coverage across the county
- North Wexford (Gorey, Bunclody) with quick M11 access to Dublin.
- Wexford town and Enniscorthy, the central service area.
- The south-west (New Ross) bordering Waterford and South Kilkenny.
- Rosslare and the south-east coast, with export shipping options.
What it costs in Wexford
There is no published price list for asbestos removal in Wexford or anywhere in Ireland. Better local supply can mean a smaller travel element than remote counties, 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 Wexford?
Yes, and that makes Wexford unusual. One of the three ARCA-registered removal contractors in the Republic, Gravity Construction, is based in County Wexford. Most counties have no local ARCA firm, so Wexford has better local supply than the national average. Dublin and national firms also cover the county. See the contractor guide.
Where does Wexford asbestos waste go?
Asbestos waste from Wexford is hazardous waste, double-wrapped and carried by a permitted waste collector. It goes to an EPA-licensed transfer station, or is exported under Transfrontier Shipment rules to a specialist facility in mainland Europe. Wexford has a logistic advantage here, since Rosslare Europort gives the south-east direct export shipping options. See the disposal guide.
Does Wexford supply reach New Ross and South Kilkenny?
Yes. Firms working the south-east routinely cover New Ross and cross into South Kilkenny (Mooncoin, Thomastown) and South Carlow, since the towns are close together. If you are over the county line, the Waterford page and the Kilkenny page cover the same supply area.
