No oneโs claimed this spot yet.
Weโll notify you when this spot is filled.
We claimed our spot on day one and within a few weeks we were getting enquiries from people we'd never have reached otherwise. Being the only web developer listed in Tranent means the right people find us - no competing with ten other agencies on the same page.
It looks like a fantastic resource. I was set up and live within the hour - I've even added it to my contact form so I can track the leads that come through.
About Roughcasters
A roughcaster applies a textured external finish to buildings - the traditional Scottish harling that protects stone and blockwork walls from the weather while giving them a clean, uniform appearance.
Harling is one of Scotland's most common wall finishes and when it cracks, blows or starts to let in damp, getting it patched or replaced promptly prevents more expensive damage to the masonry underneath.
Ask whether they use traditional lime harling or modern cement render - on older stone buildings, lime-based finishes allow the walls to breathe and avoid the moisture problems that cement can cause.

About Marchmont
Marchmont is a dense tenement neighbourhood south of the Meadows, one of Edinburgh's most popular residential areas for students, young professionals and families.
The streets are lined with handsome Victorian tenements built in the 1870s and 1880s, many with high ceilings, bay windows and original features.
The Meadows - a large public park immediately to the north - is Marchmont's green space, used for everything from cricket to cherry blossom viewing.
The area has a quiet, residential character but is within a 15-minute walk of the Old Town, the university and the shops of Bruntsfield and Morningside.
About Edinburgh
(opens in new tab)Edinburgh is Scotland's capital city and one of the most recognisable cities in the world, built across a series of volcanic hills on the southern shore of the Firth of Forth.
The Old Town and New Town, together a UNESCO World Heritage Site, form the historic core - but the city stretches far beyond them, taking in dozens of distinct neighbourhoods, suburbs and villages absorbed over centuries of growth.
From the Georgian terraces of the New Town to the seaside promenade at Portobello, the leafy avenues of Morningside to the waterfront regeneration at Granton, each part of Edinburgh has its own character and community.
The city is a centre for finance, technology, higher education and the arts - the Edinburgh Festival Fringe is the largest arts festival in the world and the city's universities attract students and researchers from across the globe.
Edinburgh's transport network includes a tram line, an extensive bus system, two mainline railway stations and an international airport, connecting its neighbourhoods to each other and to the rest of Scotland and beyond.
