Peebles attracts heating work that skews high-end — large detached properties along Edinburgh Road, restored Tweed-side cottages and a strong second-home market. Heat pumps are a regular conversation here, helped along by owners with the budget to do the job properly with radiator upgrades and underfloor zones.
24/7 emergency plumbing and heating cover across Peebles — burst pipes, no-heat call-outs, no-hot-water faults, leaking cylinders and overflowing tanks. The out-of-hours line is answered locally by an engineer, not a national call centre, so you get an honest ETA and a clear first-step over the phone (where to turn the stop-tap, how to drain the system) before we even arrive on site.
When a pipe bursts in Peebles the priority is stopping the water, drying the area and stabilising the system before any cosmetic repair. Our 24/7 line is answered locally — not routed through a national call centre — so you talk to an engineer who knows EH45 road access and can give an honest ETA rather than a vague "within the hour".
Travel from our Kelso base: 1 hour via the A72.
Every emergency call-out in Peebles is followed up the next working day with a written summary, photos and a plain-English fix-vs-replace recommendation.

Step 3
Stop the leak, restore safe pressure, isolate any damaged appliance.
Step 4
Photos, root-cause and a fix-vs-replace recommendation in writing the next day.

Burst pipe, uncontrolled leak, no heating in winter, no hot water, gas smell, flue fault or overflowing tank. Anything that risks property damage, health or safety qualifies for our out-of-hours service.
Out-of-hours call-out plus first hour is fixed — we'll quote it openly on the call before dispatch. Parts and any extended work are quoted in writing before chargeable hours start ticking.
