How we price this for Sligo

We take each Ireland national base range and multiply it by a local index of 0.98, built from county wage data (CSO NEA06 2024) (there is no Ireland equivalent of the U.S. Regional Price Parity, so the price and overhead terms are held at the national baseline):

index = 0.98

The wage term uses Sligo median vs Ireland median, all-employee weekly. Parts ship at national prices, so only the labour share moves with the county. All figures are in euro — we never convert prices from other countries; the Ireland base ranges come from Irish sources. Full weights and vintages are on the methodology page.

Local rules & taxes in Ireland

Sales tax on appliance repair

Repair labor is taxable here. Domestic appliance-repair SERVICES are charged at Ireland's 13.5% reduced rate (not the 23% standard rate): Ireland retains, by special derogation, the reduced rate for "repair and maintenance of movable goods" (washing machines, fridges, ovens, dishwashers, cookers). TWO escalators to 23%: (a) the two-thirds rule — if the VAT-exclusive cost of the parts exceeds two-thirds of the total VAT-exclusive price, the 23% goods rate applies to the WHOLE job, so labour-heavy repairs stay at 13.5% but parts-heavy repairs (e.g. costly compressor/board) flip to 23%; (b) accessories, attachments, batteries and tyres are always excluded to 23%. VAT is national (identical in every county). Honesty nuance: VAT-registration thresholds are €42,500 (services) / €85,000 (goods) from 1 Jan 2025, so many small/sole-trader repairers are NOT VAT-registered and add no VAT — quoted EUR prices are inconsistent on inclusion; treat 13.5% as the normal effect and 23% as the parts-heavy ceiling, not a guaranteed add-on.

"Reduced rate … Remarks: Subject to the 2/3 rule." (Revenue.ie, VAT rates database — Movable goods — repairs). Two-thirds rule: "If the cost of the goods used in carrying out the work exceeds two-thirds of the total price, the rate which applies to the goods then applies to the entire transaction." (Revenue.ie). Current rates: standard 23%, reduced 13.5%, second reduced 9%.

Licensing & certification

No general occupational appliance-repair licence exists in Ireland; specific hazard-based certifications are mandatory, all national. (1) GAS: "Gas Work" on gas appliances requires being a Registered Gas Installer (RGI) under the Energy (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 2006, scope set by the CRU (CER/09/083), register = RGII (public search at rgi.ie) — "It is the law"; unregistered gas work is a criminal offence. Distinct from Northern Ireland's Gas Safe Register. (2) REFRIGERANT (the Irish replacement for US EPA-608 / UK F-gas): a personal F-gas certificate (QQI-standard categories) plus company F-gas certification (F-gas Registration Ltd) are required for refrigeration/AC/heat-pump work under the European Union (Fluorinated Greenhouse Gas) Regulations 2016 (S.I. 658/2016) + EU 2015/2067, enforced by the EPA — "required under European and Irish law to be appropriately certified." Domestic fridges/freezers are usually hermetically sealed and small-charge, so ordinary repairs don't need it, but sealed-system/re-gas work does. Never cite EPA-608 or Gas Safe/Part P for Ireland. (3) ELECTRICAL: Safe Electric / Registered Electrical Contractor (REC) scheme, operated by RECI for the CRU; since 1 Oct 2013 "Restricted Electrical Works" (most domestic FIXED-installation electrical work) must be done and certified by a REC or prosecution follows — stricter than UK Part P with no non-notifiable carve-out. BUT repairing the plug-in appliance itself is not fixed-installation work; only hard-wiring into a fixed cooker connection unit / altering the circuit needs a REC. (4) TRADER: register with Revenue for tax (VAT only above €42,500 services / €85,000 goods); WEEE/waste-collection permit only if hauling away old appliances.
