No glazier listed in Dunmore yet.

A glazier fits, replaces and repairs glass in windows, doors, conservatories and shopfronts - from emergency boarding and broken double-glazed units to bespoke glass installations.

Misted double-glazed units are a common problem in Scotland's climate and usually mean the seal has failed - a glazier can replace just the glass unit without replacing the whole frame.

For any work involving safety glass - shower screens, doors, low-level panels - make sure the glass used is toughened or laminated to the relevant British Standard.

Dunmore is a tiny estate village near Airth, best known as the home of the Dunmore Pineapple - a remarkable 18th-century garden folly shaped like a giant pineapple, now in the care of the National Trust for Scotland.

The Pineapple was built in 1761 as a garden retreat for the Earls of Dunmore and its elaborate stonework makes it one of the most photographed architectural curiosities in Scotland.

The village itself is a handful of estate cottages set in quiet, wooded countryside on the edge of the Forth carseland, with no shop or pub of its own.

Falkirk is a council area in the heart of Scotland's central belt, sitting between Edinburgh and Glasgow with the Firth of Forth to the north and the foothills of the Campsie Fells to the west.

The town of Falkirk is the administrative centre, but the area takes in a string of communities with their own identity - Grangemouth with its port and petrochemical industry, the historic burgh of Bo'ness on the Forth shoreline, Denny, Bonnybridge and the villages of the Braes.

Falkirk's history runs deep: two of the most significant battles in the Wars of Independence were fought here and the Antonine Wall - the Roman Empire's north-western frontier - crosses the district as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. That layered history gives the area a sense of substance that newer towns lack.

Modern landmarks like the Falkirk Wheel and the Kelpies draw visitors, but the area's real appeal is practical - affordable housing, strong schools, good local services and a community feel that the bigger cities struggle to match.

Transport links are excellent - the M9 and M876 connect Falkirk to Edinburgh, Glasgow and Stirling and two railway lines serve the area - making it one of the most accessible and affordable parts of the central belt for families and businesses alike.
