No appliance repairer listed in Longridge yet.

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.

Longridge is a small village between Whitburn and Fauldhouse, a former mining community on the upland edge of West Lothian's coalfield.

It has a primary school and a close-knit community identity that has survived the loss of its industrial base through successive generations.

Whitburn is the nearest town for shops and services and the M8 is accessible for those travelling to Edinburgh or Glasgow.

West Lothian is a council area in the heart of the central belt, sitting between Edinburgh to the east, Falkirk to the north and North Lanarkshire to the west.

It is a county of contrasts: historic royal burghs like Linlithgow and ancient villages like Torphichen sit alongside the new town of Livingston and the former mining and shale oil communities that shaped the landscape in the 19th and 20th centuries.

Livingston is the county's main centre - Scotland's fifth-largest settlement - but West Lothian's character is defined as much by its smaller towns: Bathgate, Broxburn, Whitburn and Linlithgow each have their own distinct identity.

The oil shale industry, pioneered here in the 1850s by James Young, left a lasting mark on the landscape in the form of distinctive pink bings - the waste heaps of the shale works - that have become recognised landmarks in their own right.

West Lothian has excellent transport connections, with the M8 and M9 crossing the county, two rail lines linking it to Edinburgh and Glasgow and Edinburgh Airport on its eastern edge.
