Macleod Roofing has been shortlisted in two categories at the 2026 Pitched Roofing Awards, recognising both the quality of the company’s work and the progress of one of its youngest team members.
The team’s work on the new Royal Dornoch Golf Club clubhouse has been shortlisted for Best Use of Slate for a Commercial Project, while apprentice Lewis Scobbie is a finalist for Young Achiever of the Year.
Together, the two shortlist places reflect two things that matter greatly to Macleod Roofing: delivering work to the highest standard and investing in the next generation of the trade.
Royal Dornoch Golf Club clubhouse
Working alongside Morrison Construction and CUPA Pizarras, Macleod Roofing installed approximately 16,250 CUPA H3 natural slates across 650sqm of roof area.
The slate was chosen to complement the clubhouse’s stone exterior and Highland setting, while also providing the durability needed for its exposed coastal location overlooking the Dornoch Firth.
The project required careful planning, close coordination and a consistently high standard of workmanship across a large and highly visible roof.
Young Achiever of the Year
Lewis joined Macleod Roofing in April 2024 as a Roof, Slate and Tiling Apprentice and has quickly become a valued member of the team.
He has progressed from supporting maintenance and access work to carrying out slating independently with minimal supervision, earning the trust of colleagues and site managers through his skill, reliability and attitude.
Lewis has also been praised for his slating and leadwork, professionalism and commitment to health and safety, while his progress has already been recognised through Dundee and Angus College’s Apprentice of the Year award.
To be recognised for both a landmark Highland project and the achievements of a young apprentice makes this a particularly proud moment for the whole team.
One shortlist place reflects the standard of work being delivered today. The other reflects the future of the industry.
