Peebles property and heating guide
A strong second-home contingent values pre-winter servicing slots booked well ahead.
Peebles is one of our strongest heat pump and high-end install markets — EH45 sits an hour from Kelso, and the work generally justifies the run.
Peebles attracts heating work that skews high-end — large detached properties along Edinburgh Road, restored Tweed-side cottages and a strong second-home market. Heat pumps are a regular conversation here, helped along by owners with the budget to do the job properly with radiator upgrades and underfloor zones. Access is normally via the A72.
