Why This Area
Why We Work in The Borders
The Borders is a mix of stone-built villages, converted mills and remote farmhouses — exactly the sort of properties our team knows well. Many homes here use LPG or oil, have long pipe runs and listed-building restrictions. Based in Dunbar, SJD responds quickly across the region, working with conservation constraints and delivering robust, energy-efficient heating solutions locals can rely on.

Properties in The Borders
We work on period stone cottages and Victorian terraces in towns like Melrose and Jedburgh, mill and river‑front conversions in Galashiels, traditional Borders farmhouses and steading conversions, new-builds around Peebles, tenanted flats and holiday lets.

Common Challenges
Common Problems in The Borders
Frequent issues in the Borders include cold rooms in thick stone walls, ageing boilers nearing end of life, kettling or noisy radiators, sludge and poor circulation after old pipework, and difficulty fitting condensing flues on tall chimneys. Rural properties also face LPG tank maintenance, frost-damaged external pipework and access for bulky replacements. We provide tailored boilers, system cleans, LPG expertise and advice to suit each building.
