Greenlaw accessible wet rooms planned below the finish
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.
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. For wet room installations, that changes the survey, specification or working sequence before price is agreed.
Wet room projects in Greenlaw begin below the visible finish: joist direction, floor falls, drainage route, ventilation and waterproofing determine whether the room performs. We coordinate the plumbing, tanking, electrical zones and finishes as one programme. Accessible layouts can include level entry, support positions and easy-clean choices without making the room feel institutional. This page is specifically for rural owners who need to plan a level-access room with dependable drainage and waterproofing.
