Working in Galashiels
We work right across Galashiels — TD1 — and in neighbouring Hawick and Kelso.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Galashiels: free survey, written quote, one team. If your Galashiels home has hard water, we talk through brassware and stone finishes that will still look good after a year of daily use. If your Galashiels home has a larger main bathroom, a freestanding bath with a separate walk-in shower is usually where the design starts.
Supplies across most of the Scottish Borders are soft. That leaves you free to choose matt black, brushed brass or clear glass without worrying much about limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- A full snag check, sealing of stone where needed, and a handover of manuals and isolation points
- Large-format porcelain, natural stone or microcement over full tanking
- A full product schedule naming every piece of sanitaryware, brassware, tile and light fitting
- Underfloor heating, layered lighting and any steam unit wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
Decisions to make first
Lighting
Layer it: IP-rated ceiling lights for general use, a lit mirror at the basin and low-level LED in niches or plinths for night, each on its own switch or dimmer.
Brassware finish
Chrome is the easiest to keep clean. Brushed brass, nickel and matt black look striking but show limescale marks unless they are wiped down.
Rules that apply in Scotland
In Scotland, structural work such as strengthening a floor, or altering the drainage, may need a building warrant. An unvented cylinder should be fitted by an installer qualified for unvented systems, and the electrics tested and certified to BS 7671.
