No heating engineer listed in Vidlin yet.

A heating engineer installs, services and repairs central heating systems, boilers and radiators.

Gas work must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer - it's a legal requirement, not just good practice. In rural Scotland, where oil-fired heating is common, look for an engineer who is also OFTEC registered to service and repair oil boilers.

You can verify any engineer's Gas Safe or OFTEC registration number on the relevant register's website before they start work.

Vidlin is a small settlement on the east coast of North Mainland Shetland, overlooking the sound between Mainland and the island of Whalsay.

The village serves as the terminal for the ferry to Symbister on Whalsay, making it an important transport link for islanders commuting to and from Mainland.

Vidlin has a primary school, a community hall and a marina and the surrounding area is characterised by crofting land, small lochs and scattered settlements.

The east coast setting gives Vidlin relatively sheltered conditions by Shetland standards and the village looks out across some of the most productive fishing waters in the 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.
