Leak detection and regassing in Galashiels
Mild Scottish summers mean cooling matters most in conservatories, lofts and rooms with large windows. Flare joints are a frequent leak point on older split systems, so they are among the first things checked on a visit in Galashiels.
If a system in Galashiels has needed gas before, the original leak was probably never fixed. As well as Galashiels itself, our Scottish Borders coverage takes in Eyemouth, Hawick and the towns around them. Postcode districts we cover here include TD1.
