Boiler Repair & Installation in Marchmont

Marchmont is about as dense as Edinburgh tenement housing gets, and a large share of it is let. We work throughout it — boiler installation and replacement, boiler repair and servicing, gas safety checks and landlord certificates, central heating and radiators, plumbing.

Two things shape almost every job here. The first is access: shared stairs, no lift, upper-floor flats and a street parking situation that has to be planned rather than hoped for. Getting an old boiler down four flights and a new one up them is part of the job and it gets priced as part of the job. The second is the flue. On a Marchmont rear elevation the terminal has to be clear of windows, the stair and the neighbouring flats, and that constraint usually decides the boiler position before anything else does.

The letting stock also means a steady rhythm of annual gas safety checks and between-tenancy replacements, often on flats where several appliances need doing at once. Leaks are the other Marchmont constant — in a stack of flats, water showing on your ceiling frequently starts somewhere else entirely, so tracing before opening up matters more here than almost anywhere.
