Plumbing & heating and Kirkcaldy homes
Kirkcaldy, the 'Lang Toun' on the Fife coast, has stone terraces and tenements along the coast road and in Linktown and Pathhead, the historic harbour village of Dysart, Victorian villas around Bennochy, and post-war council housing in Templehall and Gallatown.
- Older stone properties often have a mix of old and new pipework. Mention if you've seen any lead pipes.
- Exposed homes lose heat faster, so a well-balanced heating system and good controls make a difference.
- Larger older houses can have long pipe runs and big radiators, so a power flush or system upgrade may help with uneven heating.
- In ex-council flats with a shared water supply, a plumber may need access to a common close or riser.
- In listed buildings, new flues and external pipework can need consent, so check with Fife Council.
Areas covered include Town Centre, Dysart, Pathhead, Sinclairtown, Gallatown, Templehall, Linktown, Bennochy, Dunnikier, Chapel, Smeaton, Raith. Local authority: Fife Council.
