Scottish Apprenticeship Week 2026–Old Plean Roofing Ltd

For Scottish Apprenticeship Week, we spoke with Old Plean Roofing Ltd who say that roofing is a profession built on precision, safety, and pride

Based in Stirling, Scotland, Old Plean Roofing is a family-run business that takes pride in providing indivuiduals with a learning environment where they can grow and develop their roofing skills. People are at the heart of the business, and apprenticeships are valued massively with the understanding that new talent is vital in addressing the skills shortage.

Every apprentice we train today becomes a fully qualified tradesperson tomorrow—someone who understands our standards, our methods, and the importance of delivering quality workmanship.

For Scottish Apprenticeship 2026, we invited members to tell their apprentice stories. In this case study, we learn the importance of apprenticeships not only for Old Plean Roofing Ltd, but the sector and wider industry as a whole.
