Homes in Dunboyne, and what goes wrong with their plumbing
Most homes in Dunboyne are newer: 71% were built from 1991 on, and 16% before 1981. Newer houses have plastic and push-fit pipe, so most calls are parts that wear: fill valves, cartridges, pumps and immersion elements.
12% of homes are flats or apartments. A leak in a flat reaches the one below fast, so turn the water off first and tell the management company.
26% of homes heat with oil, more than most of the area. Oil boilers are serviced by an oil technician, not a gas installer, so say which you have.
The water is moderately hard: Uisce Éireann's results for the Dunboyne supply zone have a median of 226 mg/l. That's hard enough to scale up immersion elements, shower heads and taps.
226 new homes were finished in Dunboyne from 2012 to 2025, the CSO's count.
Uisce Éireann says the main serving Dunboyne was built decades ago and is prone to bursts in sections, and it is laying a new one. Check the neighbours before you ring about low pressure.
About one home in four in Dunboyne heats with oil, far more than in Ashbourne, so say whether yours is oil or gas when you send a boiler job.
