Built for Kelso homes

Like much of Scottish Borders, Kelso features mill-town terraces and rural steadings with heritage-sensitive lantern work. It's the kind of work our surveyors and fitting teams handle week in, week out across the Scotland region.

You get the same product either way — thermally broken aluminium, self-clean and solar-control glass options, made to the millimetre. The only choice is who fits it: your builder with our documentation, or our own nationwide teams.

Coverage takes in Kelso, Galashiels, Hawick and Peebles and every corner of Scottish Borders. Surveys and quotes are free, with a response within 1 working hour on every enquiry.

Traditional Roof Lanterns in Kelso — common questions

Can I have a finial on an aluminium lantern?

Yes — ridge finials and decorative cresting are available on our heritage aluminium range, giving the traditional silhouette without timber's maintenance.

What colours suit a traditional lantern?

Cream, off-whites and heritage greens are the classics, usually matched to the property's existing joinery. We powder-coat to any RAL, so an exact match is straightforward.

Do traditional lanterns work on modern extensions?

They can — a tall lantern over a new orangery-style extension with brick piers looks superb. On a minimalist flat-roof box, a contemporary low-pitch design is usually the better fit.

Aluminium or timber for a period property?

Timber for listed buildings and strict conservation contexts; heritage aluminium for everything else — it gives the period look with modern thermal performance and no repainting.

Can I book installation in Kelso?

We do. Kelso and the surrounding Scottish Borders towns are core territory for both our installation teams and our supply-only delivery routes.

How quickly can you quote for a Kelso project?

For Kelso: same-day made-to-measure quotes, standard sizes delivering in around 7–10 working days, and installation slots booked to suit once the survey's done.
