🥽 Welder in Rodel, Outer Hebrides
This one’s up for grabs.
Top Banana lists trusted tradespeople across all 32 regions of Scotland.
Top Banana put me in front of local clients I didn't know were looking - simple, no fuss, and it just works. I wasn't sure a local directory would work for voiceover, but the enquiries speak for themselves. Worth every penny.
Most of my clients are in Haddington so being listed there made perfect sense. Neep made it easy to get set up and I was live within a day.
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 Rodel
Rodel is a small settlement at the southern tip of Harris, home to St Clement's Church - one of the finest medieval churches in the Outer Hebrides.
The church dates from the 16th century and contains elaborate tomb sculptures of the MacLeod chiefs of Harris and Dunvegan.
Properties are a small number of traditional houses and a renovated hotel, set in a quiet and remote corner of South Harris.
Rodel has a harbour and is the most southerly point on Harris, with Leverburgh the nearest settlement for services.
About Outer Hebrides
The Outer Hebrides (Na h-Eileanan Siar) are a chain of islands stretching 130 miles off Scotland's north-west coast, from the Butt of Lewis in the north to Barra and Vatersay in the south.
Stornoway on Lewis is the only town of any size and serves as the administrative, commercial and transport hub for the islands. The rest of the population is spread across crofting townships and small villages on Lewis, Harris, North Uist, Benbecula, South Uist and Barra - communities connected by causeways, single-track roads and inter-island ferries.
The islands are the heartland of Scottish Gaelic language and culture. Gaelic is spoken as an everyday language here to a degree found nowhere else in Scotland and the traditions of crofting, weaving, fishing and storytelling remain central to island life. Harris Tweed - handwoven in the homes of islanders from locally dyed wool - is a globally recognised fabric and a vital part of the local economy.
The landscape is extraordinary: white shell-sand beaches on the Atlantic coast, ancient standing stones at Callanish, the mountainous terrain of Harris, the flat machair grasslands of the Uists and some of the darkest skies in Europe. Wildlife - sea eagles, otters, seals and vast seabird colonies - draws naturalists from around the world.
CalMac ferries connect the islands to the mainland from Ullapool, Uig on Skye and Oban, while Loganair flights serve Stornoway, Benbecula and Barra - where the beach at Traigh Mhor famously serves as the runway. Despite the remoteness, the islands have a strong and self-reliant community life shaped by faith, Gaelic culture and the rhythms of the sea.
