No bricklayer listed in Mid Yell yet.

A bricklayer builds and repairs structures using bricks, blocks and mortar - from garden walls, pillars and steps to extensions, foundations and chimney rebuilds.

Brickwork is structural and visible, so quality matters on both counts - a good bricklayer works level, plumb and consistent with clean joints throughout.

For any work on a shared or boundary wall, check whether your project requires a building warrant under Scottish building regulations before the first brick is laid.

Mid Yell is the main village on the island of Yell, the second-largest of the Shetland Islands, lying between Mainland to the south and Unst to the north.

Yell has a population of around 750 people and Mid Yell serves as the main settlement with a secondary school, a health centre, a leisure centre and a small range of shops.

The island is characterised by its vast peat moorland - Yell is one of the largest areas of blanket bog in Europe - and its coastline is rich with otters, seals and seabirds.

Yell is connected by ferry to Mainland at Toft in the south and to Unst at Gutcher in the north, making Mid Yell a natural stopping point on the journey to the most northerly islands.

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.
