Situated at the junction of the A697 and A6105, Greenlaw presents a mix of heating challenges, from the grand Georgian residences bordering the Green to contemporary housing on the village outskirts. As the former county town of Berwickshire, the building stock varies significantly. We provide specialist support for this diverse range of homes, whether you are managing an older oil-fired system in a stone-built cottage or require a modern LPG or gas boiler service in a newer build.
Full kitchen plumbing, gas and heating works across Greenlaw — 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 Greenlaw 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 TD10 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: 25 minutes via the A697.
Local considerations in Greenlaw
The Georgian architecture surrounding the Greenlaw Town House requires careful routing for internal pipework to preserve period features. We often handle sympathetic retrofits in these older, thick-walled stone buildings.
Properties located higher up on the Blackadder Water can face pressure fluctuations. We provide tailored solutions, including unvented cylinders and booster pumps, to ensure consistent flow for modern showers and appliances.
Greenlaw's exposure to the Berwickshire winds makes insulation and heating controls vital. We install advanced Vaillant weather-compensating thermostats to adjust boiler output based on the precise outdoor temperature.
With many properties in Greenlaw sitting off the mains gas network, we specialise in high-efficiency oil boiler installations and long-term maintenance for external Grant or Worcester Bosch units found in larger gardens.
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 help with an urgent plumbing repair near the Greenlaw Town House?+
Yes, we frequently visit Greenlaw and the surrounding farms to repair leaks, clear blockages, or install new fixtures. Whether it is a traditional stone property or a modern build, we carry the necessary tools to resolve plumbing issues promptly.
Do you work on both gas and oil systems in Greenlaw?+
Most older homes in the square and surrounding streets are off-grid. We provide full oil boiler replacements and tank inspections. For those in newer developments with a gas supply, we are Vaillant Advanced installers, offering extended warranties on high-efficiency natural gas systems.
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.
