The business was established by Griffith J. Roberts in 1932 and was originally based in the Lower Grangegorman area near Smithfield in the centre of Dublin. In the early years, the business was principally involved in the building of buses, station wagons, hearses and other types of specialist coachwork, including van bodies, truck cabs, drop side and tipper bodies. Over the years the company expanded into engineering, hydraulic equipment sales and refuse collection equipment.
Griffith J Roberts is a leading manufacturer of commercial vehicle body work with over eighty years coach building experience. We can supply and fit all types of vehicle body work including vans, tippers, tail lifts, skip loaders and refuse disposal equipment.
We provide a full repair service for commercial vehicle body work, including welding, fabrication, hydraulic repairs and servicing. We also supply a full range of hydraulic items including pumps, PTOs, power packs and seal kits. We are based in a purpose built factory in Ballycoolin, Dublin 15 with excellent access for large commercial and articulated vehicles.
