Dollar is a quaint town located in Clackmannanshire, Scotland, with a population of approximately 2,800 residents. Situated 12 miles (19 kilometers) east of Stirling along the A91 road to St Andrews, Dollar lies between the picturesque Ochil Hills to the north and the River Devon to the south. The town's name, often mistakenly associated with the dollar currency, has intriguing origins, potentially deriving from the Gaelic term "Doilleir," meaning dark or gloomy, or from Pictish words such as 'Dol' (field) and 'Ar' (arable), or 'Dol' (valley) and 'Ar' (high). Another possible derivation is from "Dolar," meaning 'haugh place,' relating to the Welsh word 'dôl' for meadow. Notably, Dollar is home to the historic Castle Campbell, an impressive structure that overlooks the town and served as the lowland seat for the Duke of Argyll, where Mary, Queen of Scots stayed in the 16th century.
In the painting and decorating industry good preparation is imperative. This can not be emphasised enough when attempting to get the best results on a project. Any tradespeople who avoid this important stage in the process are clearly in the wrong profession. Inexperienced painters and decorators can often overlook important things such as knotting or sealing walls before lining them. This means that they will never get a long lasting finish and good quality job that lots of knowledge and experience can bring.
