TD1 · About 18 miles from Kelso
Plumber and gas engineer in Galashiels
Galashiels is one of the busiest towns in the central Borders and around 18 miles from our base in Kelso. Much of its housing is terraced and on mains gas, which shapes the jobs we do there.
Gas boilers in terraced homes
In a terrace the boiler is often in a kitchen cupboard with the flue going straight out of a back or side wall. When we replace one we check the flue position meets current rules, flush or clean the system so the new boiler is not fed old sludge, and fit a filter to protect it. Swaps like this are usually straightforward, and we explain the warranty terms for the model you choose.
Leaks and water damage
Leak detection is one of the most searched services for Galashiels. A stain on a ceiling or a dropping boiler pressure does not always point to where the water is escaping, so we trace it first and only then open up the smallest area we need to. You get an explanation of the cause and a price for the fix.
Landlords and emergencies
Galashiels has a lot of rented property, so annual gas safety checks are a steady part of our work in the town. For urgent problems, the 07747 002334 line is answered locally, and we are honest about how quickly we can get across from Kelso.
