How quickly can an engineer attend a boiler repair in Edinburgh?
Same day across all EH postcodes if you book before 2pm, next morning after that. Out-of-hours attendance is available after 6pm and at weekends at the £140 rate. Vulnerable households and no-heat calls in winter are prioritised.
How much does a boiler repair cost in Edinburgh?
Heatscape charges a fixed £95 diagnostic across every EH postcode, deducted in full from any repair carried out on the same visit. Out of hours (after 6pm and weekends) is £140. Most common repairs land between £120 and £420 all-in including parts and labour. If a repair would cost more than about £600 on a boiler over 10 years old, we quote a like-for-like replacement at £2,295 instead.
Do you offer fixed-price boiler repairs?
Yes. The diagnostic is a fixed £95 and every repair is quoted in writing before any work starts. There are no parking charges, no congestion fees, no inspection levies and no hourly overruns added afterwards.
Who is responsible for a boiler repair in an Edinburgh tenement flat?
The boiler inside your flat is yours. Shared risers, common cold-water tanks, the common stair flue route and roof-level terminals are shared and fall under the Tenements (Scotland) Act 2004, needing majority owner agreement. We repair the flat side immediately and give you a written report to take to the factor for anything common.
Why does my boiler keep losing pressure in a top-floor Edinburgh flat?
In a four or five-storey tenement the static head is high, so a tired expansion vessel or a weeping pressure-relief valve shows up as pressure loss much faster than in a house. Nine times out of ten it is the vessel charge, the PRV or a pinhole on a hidden pipe run — all repairable on the first visit.
Can you fit me in this week for a gas safety certificate?
Yes — same-week as standard, same-day if booked before 2pm.
What if my certificate fails?
We quote the remedial work at the same visit and complete it under one fixed price wherever possible.
Quoted on Monday, fitted by Friday. Fixed price, no surprises, and the engineer cleaned up better than I did. House is finally warm in the upstairs bedrooms.

Tenement flue routing was a nightmare with the last quote we got. Heatscape actually solved it and dealt with the factor for us. Damp gone too.
