Rain in Kerry

What the gutters carry in Kerry

Tralee gets about 1,357 mm of rain a year, November the wettest month. Off a 60 m² roof, that's about 81,420 litres a year for the gutters to carry. Kenmare is the wettest of the towns here at 1,868 mm, Listowel the driest at 1,218 mm. Kerry's main town is one of the wettest in the country, the second highest of the 26 county towns here. Undersized gutters overflow in every heavy shower: ask for square line or deep flow on a big roof, and an extra downpipe on a long run. On the Atlantic side, wind drives the rain sideways, so gutter brackets every metre or so and well-fixed downpipes matter more than the shape.

Kerry homes

Houses and gutters in Kerry

In Kerry, most houses are detached (66%), with 40 m or more of gutter and several downpipes. 68% of homes were built before 2001 and 40% before 1981 (Census 2022), so most gutters are on their first or second replacement: plastic gutters fitted in the 1980s and 1990s are now brittle, and older houses may still have cast iron.

We cover all of Co. Kerry. The largest towns, Census 2022: Tralee (26,079), Killarney (14,412), Listowel (4,794), Kenmare (2,566), Castleisland (2,536), Killorglin (2,163).
