EH21 · East Lothian · for landlords

One-team bathroom installation across Musselburgh

Musselburgh is the largest East Lothian town we cover and the closest to Edinburgh, with the densest housing stock on our patch — tightly packed High Street and Newbigging tenements, post-war terraces around Stoneybank and Whitecraig, and newer estates spreading out toward Wallyford and Old Craighall. The work here is bread-and-butter Vaillant combi swaps in volume, landlord CP12 rounds for the active letting market and a slow but steady stream of heat-pump enquiries on the larger detached stock.

Modern estates out toward Wallyford and Old Craighall are gas-fed and combi-friendly, so most installs are a same-day like-for-like swap with a magnetic filter and smart controls added. For bathroom installations, that changes the survey, specification or working sequence before price is agreed.

We design, supply and install full bathrooms across Musselburgh — 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 landlords who need to plan a complete, project-managed bathroom rather than coordinate separate trades.

Relevant work pattern

Local evidence behind the recommendation

  • Block-booked landlord CP12 round across multiple EH21 properties for a letting agent, with same-day digital certificates and renewal reminders.
  • Heat-pump feasibility survey and quote on a 1930s semi off Stoneybank, with honest advice on radiator upgrades before any commitment.
  • Vaillant ecoTEC combi swap and smart-controls install in an upper flat off Newbigging, including new flue routing and a magnetic filter, completed in a day.

Questions shaped by Musselburgh properties

Do you actually cover Musselburgh from Kelso — isn't that a long drive?+

It is, which is why we don't pretend EH21 is a same-hour call-out from us. We run a dedicated East Lothian day each week that takes in Musselburgh, Haddington and the coastal villages, so quoted and booked work fits into that round rather than as one-off long trips. Emergencies on the EH21 side are honest about ETA up front.

Can you handle a flatted boiler swap with a shared flue or chimney?+

Yes — shared-flue and shared-chimney installs are routine in central Musselburgh. We survey access to the upper flats, plan the route before quoting, and where a shared chimney is involved we coordinate with the neighbouring owner and lodge the right Building Notice paperwork.

What should be checked before quoting bathroom installations at this Musselburgh property?+

High proportion of upper and lower flats around the High Street, Newbigging and Bridge Street — flue siting, shared chimneys and access for boiler relocation drive most of the survey conversation. We confirm that point on site, then match the bathroom installations specification to the actual building and access rather than assuming every EH21 address is alike.

Is this page aimed at landlords?+

Yes. The recommendations prioritise landlords 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.

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.

How long does a full bathroom take?+

A typical full refit takes 7–10 working days from strip-out to finish. Wet rooms and en-suites may take a little longer depending on tile choice, drainage runs and any structural changes.
