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 Alva
Alva is a small hillfoot town nestled at the base of the Ochil Hills in Clackmannanshire, roughly midway between Stirling and Alloa, with a population of around 5,000.
The town grew rapidly during the 18th and 19th centuries as a centre of the Scottish woollen and textile industry, with several large mills built along the burns that flow down from the Ochils.
Alva Glen is a popular walking destination, with a dramatic gorge, waterfalls and woodland trails leading up into the hills, while the Silver Glen to the east takes its name from silver mines briefly worked in the 16th century.
Cochrane Park provides green space in the centre of the town and Alva has a primary school, local shops and good road connections along the A91 hillfoot corridor.
About Clackmannanshire
(opens in new tab)Clackmannanshire is the smallest council area in Scotland by land area, tucked between the Ochil Hills to the north and the River Forth to the south, with Stirling to the west and Fife across the water to the east.
Alloa is the county town and largest settlement, a former brewing centre on the north bank of the Forth, while a chain of hillfoot towns and villages - Tillicoultry, Alva, Menstrie and Dollar - runs along the base of the Ochils to the north.
The county has a rich industrial heritage: textiles in the hillfoot towns, brewing in Alloa and coal mining across the lowland parishes shaped the area through the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries.
Despite its small size, Clackmannanshire packs in considerable variety - from the dramatic gorges and hill walks of the Ochils to the flat carseland of the Forth, from medieval tower houses to Victorian mill architecture.
The area is well connected, with the A91 running along the hillfoot corridor and rail services from Alloa to Stirling and onward to Glasgow, making it a practical base for commuters working across the central belt.
