Area Guides
Areas We Cover in Scotland
Quick answer
We connect homeowners across Scotland with Gas Safe registered and MCS-certified installer partners for boiler replacement, heat pumps and solar. From the sandstone tenements of Glasgow and Edinburgh to the off-gas farms of Ayrshire and Galloway, our local guides cover the housing types, networks and conditions that shape each area.
Local knowledge matters
Heating guidance tailored to where you live
A boiler replacement is never quite the same job twice. The flue route that works in a Glasgow tenement may be impossible in a granite Aberdeen flat; a heat pump that suits a well-insulated new town estate in East Kilbride may be the wrong call for an exposed Ayrshire farmhouse. Our area guides set out the housing stock, network operators and local conditions that shape the right choice where you live.
Each guide covers the common property types, the gas and electricity network operators, any conservation and planning constraints, and the realistic options — a like-for-like gas boiler replacement, a switch to an air source heat pump, or adding solar panels and battery storage. Pick your area below to read the local detail.
