About Appliance Repairers
An appliance repairer diagnoses and fixes faults in household appliances - washing machines, tumble dryers, dishwashers, ovens, cookers and fridge-freezers.
Repairing an appliance is often far cheaper and less wasteful than replacing it, especially for higher-end machines that are built to last with the right maintenance.
A good repairer will diagnose the fault honestly, quote for parts and labour upfront and tell you straight if a repair isn't worth doing - that honesty is worth paying for.
About Symbister
Symbister is the main settlement on the island of Whalsay, one of Shetland’s most prosperous and tightly-knit island communities, lying off the east coast of Mainland.
Whalsay has a population of around 1,000 people and is one of the most important fishing communities in Scotland — the island’s pelagic fleet lands catches worth tens of millions of pounds annually and the harbour at Symbister is busy year-round.
The village has a primary school, a secondary school, a leisure centre with a swimming pool, shops and a community feel that is strong even by Shetland standards.
Symbister is connected to Mainland by a regular ferry service to Vidlin and the island’s relatively flat terrain and compact size make it easy to get around.
About Shetland
Shetland is an archipelago of around 100 islands — 16 of them inhabited — lying roughly 110 miles north of the Scottish mainland and 210 miles west of Norway, making it the most northerly part of the United Kingdom.
Lerwick is the capital and only town of any size, a compact and characterful harbour settlement that serves as the administrative, commercial and cultural centre of the islands. Around 7,000 of Shetland’s 23,000 residents live in and around the town.
Shetland’s economy has been shaped by the sea for centuries: fishing remains a major industry and the arrival of North Sea oil at the Sullom Voe terminal in the 1970s brought prosperity that was carefully managed through a charitable trust that continues to fund services and infrastructure across the islands.
The landscape is treeless, wind-scoured and dramatic — sea cliffs, voes (narrow inlets), tombolo beaches and open moorland define the character of the islands and nowhere in Shetland is more than three miles from the sea.
Shetland has a distinct cultural identity that draws on both Scottish and Norse heritage — the annual Up Helly Aa fire festival, the Shetland dialect and the fiddle music tradition are central to island life and the sense of community across the islands is strong and self-reliant.
