A local roofing company since 1985
Established in 1985 after completing apprenticeships with Bett Brothers and J. + J. Hosie, W. Irvine Slating & Roofing, Dundee, is one of the longest-running family roofing businesses serving Dundee and the surrounding areas.
“It was the deep end for me. My employers at the time, J + J Hosie, had just gone into liquidation, so at 20 years of age, with only £300 saved, I decided to buy a small van and contacted customers of my former employers — some of whom I retained for many years to come.
Forty years on, I’ve introduced my son, Callan, to the business. He is now a fully qualified slater and roof tiler himself, bringing a new generation of expertise to our service.”
— Willie Irvine, Proprietor
We take pride in providing a professional and personal roofing service, including flat roofing and tiling and full roof replacement, built primarily on word-of-mouth recommendations and repeat business from satisfied customers. Please see our testimonials for reference.
We operate with two small teams of contractors, and every project is personally overseen, started, and completed by either Willie or Callan themselves. This ensures the highest standards of workmanship are maintained throughout every job, no matter how big or small. Check out our gallery to learn more about our projects.
While our core trade and specialist area is slating, including traditional Scotch slating, our extensive experience in roof repairs, gained over more than 40 years in business, allows us to provide a wide range of roofing services. We welcome all enquiries, so please contact us to find out more about our expert roofing services.


Roofing you can rely on
W. Irvine Slating and Roofing understands the demands of Scottish weather, so every roof is completed with durability in mind. Our small, family-led teams manage each job carefully, with work checked throughout to maintain quality. We carry out storm damage repairs, chimney work, pointing, and guttering services, along with work on garage and outbuilding roofs.
You receive clear communication, straightforward advice, and a respectful approach to your property. We also offer pre-purchase roof surveys to help you make informed decisions. Whether the job is large or small, our Public Liability insurance of £20m provides assurance at every stage.
