Mechanical & Plumbing Services

We can carry out all kinds of mechanical & plumbing installations from industrial heating systems to changing taps. Our staff are fully qualified and experienced and can offer bespoke solutions tailored to your needs and expectations.

From full-scale heating plant installations to everyday plumbing jobs, Ness Engineering delivers trusted mechanical and plumbing services across Shetland—built on experience, certification, and practical problem-solving.

Ness Engineering provides a complete range of mechanical and plumbing services throughout Shetland, handling everything from major industrial systems to small domestic repairs. Our fully qualified engineers install, maintain, and refurbish heating systems, fuel storage, and plumbing infrastructure to the highest standards—always tailored to your specific site and requirements.

We specialise in heating systems of all types and sizes, including oil-fired, renewable and hybrid systems. Our team is OFTEC certified, and we are an approved commissioner for Hoval UltraOil boilers. We build and upgrade boiler houses, plant rooms and flue systems, and regularly deliver underfloor heating, steel flues, pipework, tanks and pressurisation systems. Where safety is critical, we bring the right qualifications too—our engineers are trained in confined space entry and rescue, and hold IPAF and PASMA certification for working at height.

We’re also qualified members of the Automatic Door Suppliers Association (ADSA), with experience installing and maintaining automatic doors to BS EN 16005:2012 standards. Whether it’s fitting pipework in a plant room, controlling legionella risk, or managing airflow with mechanical heat recovery systems, our engineers take pride in getting the job done right.

Our in-house stores hold a large range of parts, consumables, and critical spares—backed by modern diagnostic equipment for fast, accurate testing and fault finding. And through our network of trusted fabrication partners, we can design and supply bespoke gantries, walkways, frameworks and tanks to support even the most demanding projects.
