Complete bathroom projects in Earlston
Earlston sits on the A68 between Kelso and Lauder, with a strong commuter contingent thanks to the Borders Railway at nearby Tweedbank. Newer estates off Mill Road and the older High Street stone properties make for a tidy mix of straightforward combi swaps and more involved system upgrades.
High Street stone properties sometimes need a flue and pipework re-route on installation. For bathroom installations, that changes the survey, specification or working sequence before price is agreed.
We design, supply and install full bathrooms across Earlston — wet rooms, en-suites, walk-in showers, freestanding baths and full family bathroom refits. One project-managed team handles strip-out, plumbing, electrics, plastering and tiling, so you only ever deal with us. No three different trades calling at different times, no gaps in the schedule, no finger-pointing if something doesn't line up. This page is specifically for rural owners who need to plan a complete, project-managed bathroom rather than coordinate separate trades.
Earlston questions worth answering first
Are heat pumps realistic in Earlston commuter homes?+
Often yes — newer Earlston properties have insulation and outdoor space that suit heat pumps well. We model heat loss properly and tell you honestly if a high-efficiency boiler is the better short-term move.
Are you fast on emergency call-outs to Earlston?+
Yes — Earlston is a 20-minute run from our Kelso base via the A68, so emergency call-outs in TD4 are usually attended the same day.
What should be checked before quoting bathroom installations at this Earlston property?+
A growing number of EV-owning households are also asking us about heat pumps — sensible questions given the property type. We confirm that point on site, then match the bathroom installations specification to the actual building and access rather than assuming every TD4 address is alike.
Is this page aimed at rural owners?+
Yes. The recommendations prioritise rural owners who need to plan a complete, project-managed bathroom rather than coordinate separate trades. If the building or occupancy differs, the survey is where we adjust the plan.
Do you supply the bathroom or do I buy it?+
Either works — we can supply through trade accounts at a discount, or fit a bathroom you've sourced yourself. We're transparent on both routes inside the written quote.
Will I be without a bathroom the whole time?+
Usually yes if it's the only one — but we plan around it, leave a working WC overnight where possible, and keep the disruption window as tight as we can.

It then combines bathroom installations, the needs of rural owners, access via the A68, and nearby coverage toward Gordon and Mellerstain.
