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.
As Vaillant Advanced Installers we install gas, oil and LPG boilers across Galashiels with manufacturer-backed warranties of up to 12 years. A like-for-like swap is usually a single-day job; a full system upgrade — new flue route, magnetic filter, smart controls, system flush and a fresh expansion vessel — typically runs to two or three days on site. We always quote in writing after a proper survey, never over the phone, and we never use commission-based salespeople in your home.
In Galashiels we see a real mix of system types — older open-vent setups in the period stock, system boilers in mid-century housing and combis in newer builds. We size every replacement against actual hot-water demand and real radiator output, not a ballpark figure, so the new Galashiels (TD1) installation runs efficiently from day one rather than short-cycling through the first winter.
Travel from our Kelso base: 35 minutes via the A6091.

Most domestic installations fall between £2,200 and £4,500 depending on make, model, controls and any system upgrades. We give you a fixed written price after a free site visit — no surprises on the day.
Up to 12 years on Vaillant boilers as Advanced Installers; 7–10 years typical on Worcester Bosch, Ideal and Baxi. We register the warranty for you on the day of commissioning.
A like-for-like combi swap usually means one day with the heating off. A full system upgrade or a back-boiler-to-combi conversion runs two to three days. We'll always tell you up front what to expect.
