At Apex Roofing, we provide traditional scantle roofing services across Penzance and West Cornwall. We use the authentic wet-laid method with hand-cut natural slate to create strong, breathable roofs that suit Cornwall’s historic architecture. Whether we are restoring a listed building or installing a new roof with a classic Cornish look, we also support related roofline needs such as fascias, soffits and guttering to complete the structure. Every project includes durable materials, lime mortar, and a 10-year guarantee.

APEX ROOFING HERITAGE ROOF RESTORATION & CONSERVATION
We specialise in heritage-approved roof restoration, using original techniques to preserve each building’s traditional style. Our team installs genuine scantle slate with lime mortar, creating a breathable structure ideal for older Cornish homes and barns. We repair and replace damaged slate, restore strength, and work with conservation officers to meet heritage standards. These services complement properties finished with slate and tile roofing, ensuring all roof types maintain their historic character and durability.

We carry out new installations, barn conversions, repairs, and replacements with great care to protect the building’s original charm. By maintaining accuracy and using long-lasting materials, we help property owners keep their roofs attractive, functional, and prepared for long-term use in West Cornwall.
