No tiler listed in Whiteness yet.

A tiler fits ceramic, porcelain and stone tiles on walls and floors - in bathrooms, kitchens, hallways and utility rooms.

Good tiling is precise, neat and watertight; poor tiling causes problems for years.

Always check the adhesive, grout and silicone used are rated for wet areas in bathrooms and shower enclosures.

Whiteness is a scattered community on the peninsula between Whiteness Voe and Stromness Voe, in central Mainland Shetland between Lerwick and Scalloway.

The area has a primary school, a community hall and a marina at Symbister Ness and is well regarded as a quiet residential area within easy reach of both Lerwick and Scalloway.

The Whiteness and Weisdale kirk sits at the head of Whiteness Voe and the surrounding coastline offers good walks along the voe shores.

Whiteness benefits from its central location - it is close enough to Lerwick for daily commuting while retaining a distinctly rural, crofting character.

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.
