Heat load surveys and system design in Selkirk
Mild Scottish summers mean cooling matters most in conservatories, lofts and rooms with large windows. For self-builds and extensions in Selkirk, a standalone design pack can go straight to your builder.
Every Selkirk quote starts with a room-by-room survey rather than a guess from floor area. We cover Selkirk as part of the Scottish Borders, roughly 5 miles from Galashiels. Postcode districts we cover here include TD7.

That sits a little below the UK middle, reflecting typical Central and Southern Scotland labour rates.
