Practical boiler repair and servicing in Dunbar
Boiler Servicing & Repairs in Dunbar is judged by the building, not the postcode. Modern inland estates are gas-fed and combi-friendly.
Dunbar gives us a real coastal/inland mix — modern estate swaps, seafront villa upgrades and holiday-let servicing all sit on our regular EH42 round.
Annual servicing, breakdown repairs, landlord gas safety certificates (CP12) and heating system upgrades across Dunbar. Gas Safe registered, every major brand covered — Vaillant, Worcester Bosch, Ideal, Baxi, Grant, Warmflow — with a 24/7 line for genuine no-heat or no-hot-water emergencies. You'll always speak to a local engineer rather than a national call centre, and you'll always get an honest fix-vs-replace recommendation rather than a sales pitch. Access is usually via the A1.

Dunbar questions worth answering first
Do you cover Dunbar even though it's a fair drive from Kelso?+
Yes — we run dedicated East Lothian days that take in Dunbar, so EH42 work is scheduled efficiently rather than as a one-off long trip.
Should harbour-side Dunbar properties spec anything special?+
Yes — corrosion-resistant flue terminations and external pipework are well worth specifying on harbour-side EH42 properties. We do this as standard.
Does the property itself change the servicing & repairs specification here?+
The building decides it. Strong holiday-let market means autumn pre-season servicing is in demand. That is recorded first, then the servicing & repairs scope is written around it.
Is this page aimed at landlords?+
Yes. The recommendations prioritise landlords who need to diagnose a fault, protect a warranty or arrange preventative maintenance. If the building or occupancy differs, the survey is where we adjust the plan.
How often should I service my boiler?+
Annually — most manufacturers require it to honour their warranty, and it keeps the system safe, efficient and far less likely to fail in the middle of January.
Do you fix all makes of boiler?+
Yes — Vaillant, Worcester Bosch, Ideal, Baxi, Grant, Warmflow, Glow-worm, Potterton and most other major brands. We carry common spares on the van.
