Heating faults diagnosed across Hawick
Hawick is one of the larger Borders towns, with a mix of dense Victorian terraces around the town centre, post-war housing on the outer ring and rural properties up the Slitrig and Teviot. We see a wide spread of jobs here — from combi swaps and landlord work in the centre to oil servicing on outlying farms and cottages.
Dense terracing around High Street and Buccleuch Street means tight gas runs and careful flue siting. For servicing & repairs, that changes the survey, specification or working sequence before price is agreed.
Annual servicing, breakdown repairs, landlord gas safety certificates (CP12) and heating system upgrades across Hawick. 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. This page is specifically for landlords who need to diagnose a fault, protect a warranty or arrange preventative maintenance.

Before you book: local practical answers
Do you cover Denholm, Bonchester Bridge and Newcastleton?+
Yes — these are all part of our regular TD9 round, including off-grid oil servicing and LPG work.
Are heat pumps realistic in older Hawick terraces?+
Sometimes, but solid-wall Victorian terraces need a careful heat-loss survey first. In a lot of cases we'll recommend a high-efficiency gas boiler as the better short-term fit, with insulation upgrades planned alongside.
What should be checked before quoting servicing & repairs at this Hawick property?+
Older Victorian housing often has solid walls — we factor this into heat-pump heat-loss surveys honestly. We confirm that point on site, then match the servicing & repairs specification to the actual building and access rather than assuming every TD9 address is alike.
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.
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.
What does a service include?+
Strip-down clean, gas pressure and flue analysis, controls and safety check, condensate inspection, system pressure check and a written service record for your file.
