No bathroom fitter listed in Earlston yet.

A bathroom fitter handles the full installation of a new bathroom - removing the old suite, fitting the new bath, shower, basin and WC, along with tiling, plumbing and electrical connections.

A bathroom refit is one of the most disruptive jobs in a home, so choosing someone who can manage the whole process and finish on schedule matters more than the price per tile.

Earlston is a village on the Leader Water in the central Borders, about four miles north of Melrose.

It is associated with Thomas the Rhymer - the 13th-century poet and prophet Thomas of Ercildoune - whose ruined tower stands near the village.

Earlston has a primary school, local shops and a growing residential community that benefits from its proximity to Melrose and the Borders Railway.

The village sits at the junction of the A68 and A6105, giving it good road connections across the Borders.

The Scottish Borders is the largest council area in southern Scotland, stretching from the edge of Edinburgh and East Lothian in the north to the English border in the south.

It is a landscape of rolling hills, river valleys and market towns - the Tweed, Teviot, Ettrick and Yarrow rivers carve through countryside that has been fought over, farmed and written about for centuries.

Hawick and Galashiels are the largest towns, but the region's character is shaped by a string of smaller burghs - Kelso, Jedburgh, Peebles, Melrose and Selkirk - each with its own abbey ruins, common riding traditions, or rugby loyalties.

The Borders Railway, reopened in 2015, connects Tweedbank and Galashiels to Edinburgh Waverley, bringing the northern Borders within commuting distance of the capital for the first time in decades.

The region is known for its textile heritage, its abbeys and an outdoor culture built around hill walking, fishing, mountain biking and rugby - a place where community identity runs deep and the landscape is never far away.
