Working in Galashiels
We work right across Galashiels — TD1 — and in neighbouring Hawick and Kelso.
Galashiels gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. Rented homes in Galashiels are well served by slab doors and sealed worktops, which stand up to a change of tenants. If your Galashiels bathroom has pipes running along the walls, a fitted run can box them in neatly while adding storage.
Water across much of the Scottish Borders is soft. In soft water, taps, wastes and toilet pans scale up slowly, so brushed and matt finishes are a safe choice. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Tall units fixed to the wall, doors adjusted and soft-close hinges set
- Basin, tap and waste connected, and the WC pan fixed and joined to the soil pipe
- Fillers and end panels scribed to the walls, and the worktop sealed with silicone
- Measuring every wall for length, height and how far it is out of square
Decisions to make first
Carcass board
Moisture-resistant board with sealed edges is the minimum. Some ranges use a PVC-based or similar carcass that copes better with splashes and leaks.
Door style
Slab doors are the easiest to wipe down. Shaker doors look traditional but have grooves that collect dust. Handleless push-to-open doors suit a plain, modern room.
Rules that apply in Scotland
In Scotland, fitting furniture in an existing bathroom does not need a building warrant. New WCs and taps must meet the Scottish Water Byelaws 2014, and any wiring for lit units is tested and certified to BS 7671.
