Plumber Ashbourne is an introduction service, not a plumbing company. One local plumber gets your request and deals with you directly. Gas and boiler work is only done by RGI-registered installers.
What's different about Ratoath
Ratoath went from a village to a town of over 10,000 people in about 25 years. What we checked before writing this page:
- Ratoath had 10,077 people at the 2022 census. (CSO census figures, citypopulation.de)
- That's about ten times the 1,061 people it had in 1996, and in the 2016 census 2,437 of its 2,790 households, 87%, were in houses built between 1991 and 2010. (Wikipedia: Ratoath)
- Uisce Éireann has built a 4.7 million litre reservoir at Windmill Hill and laid a new trunk watermain, replacing about 7 km of old pipes that were prone to frequent bursts, to improve pressure in Ratoath at peak demand. (Uisce Éireann)
- On 29 January 2024, Uisce Éireann put an overnight restriction on Ratoath and Kilbride, from 10pm to 6am, so local reservoirs could recover after bursts and high demand. (Uisce Éireann)
- Ratoath Eircodes start with A85. (Eircode list)
- It's about 25 km north-west of Dublin city centre, with Fairyhouse Racecourse, home of the Irish Grand National, just outside the town. (Wikipedia: Ratoath)
So if your pressure drops or the water goes off, check with a neighbour first: it may be the supply, and Uisce Éireann posts updates on water.ie. If it's only your house, a plumber is the next step.

My water pressure drops in the evenings. Is that my pump?
Not always. Uisce Éireann's Windmill Hill project was built partly to improve pressure in Ratoath at peak demand, so check whether the neighbours notice it too. If it's only your house, or the pump cycles on and off, pick "Shower, electric shower or pump" in the form.

Yes. This site takes requests from Ratoath, Ashbourne, Donaghmore, Kilbride, Rathfeigh and Garristown. Pick Ratoath in the form and we pass it to one plumber who covers it.
How much is a new pump, fitted?
Published prices for a new shower or pressure pump, supplied and fitted, run €750–€1,350. Ask whether yours can be repaired before you agree to a new one.
