⛩️ Fencer in Loanhead, Midlothian
This one’s up for grabs.
About Fencers
A fencer installs and repairs fences, gates and boundary treatments - from standard timber panels and close-board fencing to post-and-rail, stock fencing and bespoke garden screens.
Scotland's weather puts fences under serious pressure, so proper posts set in concrete and treated timber make the difference between a fence that lasts and one that blows over in the first winter.
Check boundary ownership before commissioning any fence work - your title deeds or the Land Register of Scotland will confirm which boundaries are your responsibility.
About Loanhead
Loanhead is a town of around 7,000 people on the A701 corridor between Edinburgh and Penicuik, sitting on the ridge above the North Esk valley.
The Straiton retail park, on Loanhead's northern boundary, is one of the busiest out-of-town shopping destinations in the Edinburgh area.
The town itself has a traditional main street with local shops, takeaways and services and is home to the Midlothian Snowsports Centre at Hillend — the longest artificial ski slope in the UK.
Loanhead's position gives it easy access to the Edinburgh city bypass and bus routes into the city centre are frequent.
About Midlothian
(opens in new tab)Midlothian is a compact council area immediately south of Edinburgh, stretching from the city bypass to the edge of the Scottish Borders.
It takes in the valleys of the North and South Esk rivers, the northern slopes of the Pentland Hills and a string of former mining communities that have reinvented themselves as commuter towns and growing residential centres.
Dalkeith is the administrative centre, but Bonnyrigg is the most populous settlement — and Penicuik, set against the Pentlands, has the feel of a self-contained town in its own right.
The Borders Railway, reopened in 2015, connects Newtongrange, Gorebridge and Eskbank to Edinburgh Waverley and has driven significant housing growth across the region.
Midlothian is one of the fastest-growing local authority areas in Scotland, attracting families and professionals who want proximity to Edinburgh without the city price tag.
