No welder listed in Leslie yet.

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).

Leslie is a small town on the River Leven in central Fife, sitting at the foot of the Lomond Hills between Glenrothes and Falkland.

The town has a long association with papermaking and textile production and its compact centre retains a traditional main street with local shops and services.

Leslie House, a 17th-century mansion set in wooded grounds on the edge of the town, was once one of the grandest houses in Fife - parts of the building have been converted to residential use.

The Lomond Hills, rising to the north, offer excellent walking with views across Fife from the summits of East Lomond and West Lomond.

Fife is a large peninsula in eastern Scotland, bounded by the Firth of Forth to the south and the Firth of Tay to the north - a geography that has given it a distinct identity and earned it the traditional title of 'The Kingdom of Fife'.

Dunfermline is the largest settlement and a former capital of Scotland, granted city status in 2022, while Glenrothes serves as the administrative centre and St Andrews is known worldwide as the home of golf and Scotland's oldest university.

The south-west of Fife has a strong industrial heritage - coal mining and shipbuilding shaped towns like Cowdenbeath, Lochgelly and Rosyth - while the East Neuk coastline is defined by a string of picturesque fishing villages: Anstruther, Crail, Pittenweem and St Monans.

Inland, the Howe of Fife is fertile agricultural land dotted with market towns like Cupar, Auchtermuchty and Falkland, the last of these home to a beautifully preserved Renaissance palace.

Fife is well connected to Edinburgh via the Forth Road Bridge and Queensferry Crossing and to Dundee via the Tay Road Bridge, making much of the region practical for commuters while retaining a strong sense of local identity.
