EH42 · East Lothian · for landlords
Dunbar kitchen services coordinated with your fitter
Dunbar mixes historic harbour-side properties, Victorian villas along the seafront and modern estates inland. The town sits in one of the sunniest, driest pockets in Scotland but still gets serious easterly exposure on the coast — which changes how outdoor pipework, flue terminations and heat-pump units need to be specified.
Strong holiday-let market means autumn pre-season servicing is in demand. For kitchen installations, that changes the survey, specification or working sequence before price is agreed.
Full kitchen plumbing, gas and heating works across Dunbar — from new-build first-fix through to refurbishment hob isolation, sink waste re-routing, dishwasher and washing-machine connections, water softener installation and integrated boiler relocations. We work alongside your kitchen fitter or project-manage the entire trade package ourselves, so the gas, water and electrics line up with the cabinets on day one rather than chasing snags after handover. This page is specifically for landlords who need to coordinate gas, water, waste and heating work around the kitchen programme.

Before you book: local practical answers
Should harbour-side Dunbar properties spec anything special?+
Yes — corrosion-resistant flue terminations and external pipework are well worth specifying on harbour-side EH42 properties. We do this as standard.
Do you cover Dunbar even though it's a fair drive from Kelso?+
Yes — we run dedicated East Lothian days that take in Dunbar, so EH42 work is scheduled efficiently rather than as a one-off long trip.
What should be checked before quoting kitchen installations at this Dunbar property?+
Modern inland estates are gas-fed and combi-friendly. We confirm that point on site, then match the kitchen installations specification to the actual building and access rather than assuming every EH42 address is alike.
Is this page aimed at landlords?+
Yes. The recommendations prioritise landlords who need to coordinate gas, water, waste and heating work around the kitchen programme. If the building or occupancy differs, the survey is where we adjust the plan.
Can you move my boiler to fit a new kitchen layout?+
Yes — boiler relocations are routine. We'll talk you through flue-route options, condensate drainage and the cost trade-off vs replacing with a new combi in a different location.
Do I need a Building Notice for kitchen plumbing?+
Only for gas appliance moves and certain drainage changes. We lodge the notice with your local authority on your behalf where required and include the cost in the written quote.
