Property stock in Sciennes
Traditional four-storey tenements with shared closes and original sash and case windows. Internal wall insulation, secondary glazing and correctly sized combis are the standard upgrade path.
Common repairs and shared roof or stair work follow the Tenements (Scotland) Act majority rules. We provide costed schedules you can circulate to the other owners.
Is secondary glazing noticeable from inside?
Slimline systems sit within the existing reveal and are barely visible, while cutting draughts and street noise substantially.
What is the survey cost?
Standard quoting surveys are free. The £149 thermal-imaging heat-loss audit is credited back if you proceed.
Are your engineers Gas Safe registered and vetted?
Every install and repair is delivered by a vetted partner Gas Safe registered engineer. We check ID, insurance and recent reviews before any engineer works under the Heatscape name.
Do you offer finance or spread-payment options?
Yes — 0% APR over 24 months and longer-term plans up to 10 years via our FCA-regulated finance partner, subject to status. We quote the full monthly cost upfront.
How is the price fixed — will there be extras on the day?
Every quote is fixed price, no hidden extras. Anything that could vary (gas riser upgrade, flue reroute, factor consent) is itemised on the quote before you sign.
Quoted on Monday, fitted by Friday. Fixed price, no surprises, and the engineer cleaned up better than I did. House is finally warm in the upstairs bedrooms.
