Galashiels is the largest town we cover west of Kelso. The housing stock skews toward terraced and semi-detached gas properties around Tweedbank, Langlee and the town centre, with a steady stream of student and rental conversions thanks to the Borders College and Heriot-Watt campus. That makes for steady demand for combi installs, landlord gas safety certificates and quick-turnaround repairs.
MCS Certified and RECC member, we design and install air source heat pumps across Galashiels. Most of our customers access the Home Energy Scotland Grant (currently up to £7,500) plus an interest-free loan on top — we handle the entire application as part of the quote. Crucially, every system is sized from a proper room-by-room heat-loss survey, not a back-of-the-envelope kW figure, so it actually performs through a Borders winter rather than just ticking a grant box.
Heat-pump performance in Galashiels hinges on three things we take seriously: heat-loss accuracy, emitter sizing and outdoor-unit siting. TD1 properties vary from solid-stone walls to modern timber-frame builds, and each needs a different design temperature and flow strategy. We carry out the survey ourselves rather than outsourcing, so the design that lands in your inbox is the one we'll actually install.
Travel from our Kelso base: 35 minutes via the A6091.
Each heat pump we commission in Galashiels is fully MCS certified and the documentation pack is sent direct to Home Energy Scotland so your grant funds release without delay.
