Dylan is a fully trained steeplejack with more than a decade of experience working on high buildings, chimneys, and roofs across Scotland. He’s joined by Kai to form a small, tight-knit team who value doing a job properly and safely.
We have is real-world, hands-on experience. We’ve carried out complex jobs for power stations, factories, and listed buildings—always with proper rigging and safety controls in place.

A Recent Job
Our height specialist technician accessed the flagpole using a harness secured to the installed ladder.
The flag was lowered and removed, new carabiners were used to install the new flag to the flagpole and secured correctly. The ropes and clips were checked to ensure no twists or tangles would occur.
Once the new flag was installed our technician raised into position to ensure flying correctly before returning to the ground.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“Due to the repair being above a conservatory I needed roofers with rope skills. Dylan and Kai handled a tricky job really well and we were happy to keep adjusting the fit until I was happy. I will be using them again shortly for another smaller roof job. Very friendly, capable, willing and tidy team!” – Verified Reviewer Sandie Lovie in Edinburgh EH12 8HJ – 14th March 2025.
