Melrose has one of the most varied housing stocks in the Borders — Victorian villas around Dingleton and the High Street, smaller estates off Weirhill and traditional cottages up toward Eildon. Combine that with a high proportion of second homes and holiday lets and you get a town where reliable heating, sensible servicing intervals and quiet, efficient kit really matter.
Annual servicing, breakdown repairs, landlord gas safety certificates (CP12) and heating system upgrades across Melrose. 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.
Most Melrose call-outs we attend fall into a small number of repeatable patterns — pressure-loss in older sealed systems, expansion vessel failures, sticky diverter valves and corroded heat exchangers caused by sludge. Carrying common Vaillant, Worcester and Ideal spares on the van means most TD6 repairs are sorted on the first visit rather than a return trip a week later.
Travel from our Kelso base: 25 minutes via the A6091.
Every Melrose service ticket we close gets a written record for your file and a reminder set for next year — so you never miss a warranty cut-off.

Often, yes — but the radiators usually need upsizing, and we'll model heat loss properly for the older stone walls. We'll be honest if a high-efficiency boiler is a better short-term fit.
Yes — we deliberately keep autumn slots free for holiday-let owners across TD6. Booking in September or early October avoids a January breakdown when the property is fully booked.
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.
Yes — Vaillant, Worcester Bosch, Ideal, Baxi, Grant, Warmflow, Glow-worm, Potterton and most other major brands. We carry common spares on the van.
