Inverness has witnessed an artistic masterpiece like no other, thanks to the talented roofer Gary McIntyre, renowned for his remarkable rooftop designs, including a famous Banksy-inspired creation. In his most ambitious project to date, Gary returned to Inverness to unveil his masterpiece just in time for Remembrance Sunday.
Standing proudly atop the Hub on Wimberley Way, this new design is truly awe-inspiring. Gary, along with his dedicated partner Conor Farmer from Artisan Roofing, collaborated to bring a symbol of remembrance to life – a magnificent poppy adorning the rooftop.
The choice of materials was crucial to ensure this project stands the test of time. SSQ generously supplied Riverstone Heavy slates for this meaningful endeavour. Riverstone Slate is not just any roofing material; it symbolizes durability, elegance, and respect.
This project was a true labour of love, made possible by the generous support of local businesses that contributed their resources, materials, and manpower, valuing the project at over £26,000.
The community’s response has been overwhelming, with locals of all ages expressing their excitement and admiration for this monumental creation. Children came out to witness the transformation, and the community centre, a hub for local families, buzzed with enthusiasm.
