Duns is the natural service town for Berwickshire — a working market town surrounded by big agricultural country. The mix of Victorian stone houses around the Square, post-war estates off Castle Street and a wide rural patch reaching toward Polwarth and Greenlaw makes for a healthy spread of gas, oil and LPG work.
Full kitchen plumbing, gas and heating works across Duns — 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.
Kitchens in Duns touch every trade — gas hob isolation, waste re-routing, water softener flow rates, electrics, tiling and joinery. We project-manage the plumbing, gas and heating side end-to-end across TD11 so your kitchen fitter isn't waiting on a Gas Safe slot. Hob, oven and washer connections are pressure-tested and certified before sign-off.
Travel from our Kelso base: 30 minutes via the A6105.
Local considerations in Duns
Berwickshire farmland means a steady stream of farmhouse and steading installs with their own quirks (long pipe runs, multiple zones).
Town-centre Victorian properties often need careful flue siting against listed neighbours.
Cold-snap exposure across the Merse — radiator sizing and frost-protection routing matter.
Most rural addresses around Duns are off the gas grid — oil and LPG dominate the work pattern.
What we'll do for you
Hob isolation valve fitted in an accessible location — Building Regs compliant.
Pressure-tested gas connections to hob and oven, certified before sign-off.
Waste pipework re-routed cleanly — no fall-rate compromises that cause smells later.
Water softener and filtered tap installations sized to actual incoming flow rate.
Boiler relocations costed honestly — sometimes a re-route is cheaper than a new flue.
Coordinated with kitchen fitter, electrician and tiler so trades don't clash.

Can you handle multi-zone systems in larger Duns properties?+
Yes — we design and zone larger heating systems properly, including zoned weather compensation and underfloor heating where it makes sense.
Do you cover the rural Berwickshire farms around Duns?+
Yes — Polwarth, Greenlaw, Gavinton, Allanton and the wider TD11 patch are part of our normal Duns round, with most farm and steading work booked in within the week.
Do you install kitchens or just the plumbing?+
We handle the plumbing, gas, heating and boiler-relocation side end-to-end. We'll also coordinate with your kitchen fitter, or recommend trusted local fitters we've worked with for years.
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.
