TD8 · Scottish Borders · for rural owners
A practical plumbing and heating guide to Jedburgh
Jedburgh sits in Scottish Borders (TD8). Jedburgh's mix of historic stone properties around the Abbey, mid-century housing along Castlegate and rural homes up the Jed Water valley creates a real spread of heating challenges. Many properties off the main streets sit outside the gas network, so oil and LPG work makes up a healthy share of what we do here.
Jedburgh keeps us busy with everything from oil servicing in the Jed Water valley to combi conversions in 70s housing — a 20-minute run from Kelso, with most jobs booked in within the week.
Cold valley pockets along the Jed Water can mean lower overnight temperatures than Kelso, which we factor into heat-pump sizing.

Questions shaped by Jedburgh properties
Do you service oil boilers in Jedburgh?+
Yes — oil servicing is a regular part of our Jedburgh round. We carry the parts most common to Worcester Bosch Greenstar, Grant Vortex and Warmflow units, so most services are completed in a single visit.
Can you work on properties in the conservation area near the Abbey?+
Yes — we plan flue routes and external works carefully so listed and conservation-area elevations aren't compromised. Where listed-building consent is needed, we'll flag it before quoting.
Why does Jedburgh need its own page?+
Cold valley pockets along the Jed Water can mean lower overnight temperatures than Kelso, which we factor into heat-pump sizing. That local constraint is recorded before we recommend equipment, access arrangements or a likely project sequence.
