Alness is a smaller town, covered by postcode districts IV17, IV16 and IV18. We regularly work across the Highlands and Islands, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
We cover Alness by arrangement. Because of travel and access, visits are usually grouped with other work in the Highlands and Islands, so please allow more time for a survey and tell us about any ferry or access constraints.
