About Welders

A welder joins and repairs metal using techniques like MIG, TIG and stick welding - from fixing a broken gate or trailer to fabricating brackets, mending vehicle bodywork and tackling structural steel work.

A reliable local welder is invaluable for jobs that come up unexpectedly, from a snapped tow bar to a corroded handrail.

Check they're insured for the type of work involved and ask whether they're certified to relevant standards (e.g. CSWIP for structural welding).

About Port Ellen

Port Ellen is the main ferry port on Islay, a planned village at the southern end of the island where CalMac services arrive from Kennacraig on the Kintyre mainland.

Three of Islay's most famous distilleries - Ardbeg, Lagavulin and Laphroaig - lie along the coast road east of the village, drawing whisky enthusiasts from around the world.

Properties include traditional stone-built terraces, whitewashed cottages and modern housing, with a growing number of holiday lets serving the island's tourism industry.

Port Ellen has a primary school, a co-op and local shops and is well placed for the beaches, birdwatching and walking on the southern Oa peninsula.

The island location and Atlantic exposure mean buildings need regular attention, and local tradespeople are in constant demand for maintenance, renovation and new-build work.

About Argyll and Bute

Argyll and Bute coat of arms(opens in new tab)

Argyll and Bute is a vast council area on Scotland's western seaboard, stretching from the Cowal peninsula and the shores of Loch Lomond to the Atlantic islands of Mull, Islay, Jura, Bute and Tiree - a landscape of sea lochs, mountains and some of the longest coastline of any local authority in Britain.

Oban is the main town and the gateway to the islands, a busy harbour where CalMac ferries depart for Mull, Coll, Tiree, Colonsay and beyond. Helensburgh and Dunoon serve the Cowal and Rosneath communities closer to Glasgow, while Campbeltown at the tip of Kintyre, Lochgilphead in mid-Argyll, Inveraray on Loch Fyne and Rothesay on Bute each act as local centres for their surrounding areas.

The economy is shaped by tourism, whisky, fishing and farming. Islay alone is home to nine working distilleries and draws visitors from around the world, while the wider region's seafood industry - salmon farming, shellfish and traditional fishing - is a major employer. The landscapes of Mull, the Trossachs fringe and the Kintyre coast attract walkers, sailors and wildlife enthusiasts throughout the year.

Ferries are the lifeline of the area, connecting island and peninsula communities to the mainland and to each other. CalMac services run from Oban, Kennacraig, Gourock and Wemyss Bay, while road links depend on the A82, A83 and A85 trunk roads - routes that wind through some of the most scenic driving in Scotland but can be challenging in winter.

Argyll and Bute has a distinctive character shaped by its maritime heritage, Highland culture and scattered communities. It is a place where wild landscape and close-knit towns sit side by side, offering a quality of life that draws people looking for space, scenery and a strong sense of community.
