What decides the price in Galway

The same things as anywhere: how wide the wall is, sliding or hinged doors, the door finish and how much of the inside is drawers. The county barely moves it. What does change from house to house in Galway is the room itself, and that is what the numbers below are about.

Homes in Galway, in numbers

From the CSO's Census 2022 and its count of new homes finished in 2025. The shares are our arithmetic.

  • 3.46bedrooms per home on average, the highest average of 26 counties
  • 45.0%of Galway homes have four or more bedrooms (44,410 homes)
  • 11.5%live in a flat or apartment
  • 20.3%rent from a private landlord (20,075 households)
  • 1,473new homes finished in Galway in 2025, 189 of them apartments
  • 10.3%of homes were built before 1946

What that means for your wardrobe

  • More bedrooms to fit. 45.0% of homes in Galway have four or more bedrooms, against 33.4% across Ireland. A main bedroom and two smaller rooms is a different job from one wall: ask for every room on the one quote, measured on the one visit.
  • Apartments. 11.5% of Galway households live in a flat or apartment. In a narrow bedroom a hinged door may not open past the bed; sliding doors need no room to open. Check with the management company before anything is fixed to a party wall. Sliding wardrobes.
  • Renting. 20.3% of Galway households rent privately, the 2nd highest share of 26 counties. Under section 16 of the Residential Tenancies Act 2004 a tenant needs the landlord's written consent to alter the home. A flat-pack system fitted wall to wall is easier to take with you. PAX as a built-in.
  • New homes. 1,473 new homes were finished in Galway in 2025. In a new house, measure once the floor is down: the wardrobe stands on the finished floor, and the skirting and sockets decide where it starts. Sizes and measuring.
  • Older houses. 10.3% of Galway homes were built before 1946. Older bedrooms often have a chimney breast with an alcove either side, and walls that aren't true. Measure each alcove at three heights: they're rarely the same width. Bespoke wardrobes.
  • Detached houses. 59% of homes in Galway are detached, against 41% nationally. Bigger bedrooms mean longer walls: a 3 m run of hinged doors is about €2,783 to €3,083, and many one-off houses have a room in the roof that suits an attic wardrobe.
  • 2000s houses. 29% of Galway homes were built between 2001 and 2010, so their original wardrobes are now 15 to 25 years old. Replacing one is a common job: taking out and taking away the old wardrobe is usually €150 to €300.

Wardrobe questions in Galway

How much do fitted wardrobes cost in Galway?

About the same as anywhere in Ireland: €800 to €1,706 for a small wardrobe, €2,236 to €4,000 for a 2.4 m hinged one, and €2,500 to €4,588 with sliding doors. The width, doors and inside decide it, not the county.

Do you cover Galway, Tuam and Ballinasloe?

Yes. We pass your request to one fitted wardrobe company that covers Galway, towns and countryside. They come to you to measure.

Can I get a built-in wardrobe in a rented home in Galway?

Only with the landlord's written consent, which the Residential Tenancies Act 2004 requires for any alteration. Ask first, in writing.

What wardrobe suits an apartment bedroom?

Sliding doors, floor to ceiling. They need no room to open, and a full-height mirror door makes a small room look bigger.

When should I measure for a wardrobe in a new house?

After the floor finish is down and the skirting is on. The wardrobe stands on the finished floor.

Can you fit wardrobes into alcoves?

Yes. Each alcove is measured at three heights and the wardrobe is made to it, or sliding doors close it off with no carcass.

How soon can a wardrobe be fitted in Galway?

Three to six weeks from the approved drawing for most fitted wardrobes. Fitting takes a few hours to a day.
