Replacement boiler prices in Edinburgh depend on the building and its status. A Marchmont tenement flat, a New Town townhouse and a Corstorphine bungalow each need different boilers, and flue routes, listed building constraints and controls all move the figure. Like-for-like combi swaps start from £1,759 fitted, while Worcester Bosch Greenstar 4000 packages start from around £2,450. Every quote you get online is fixed – no surprise extras on the day.

Local boiler installers
Edinburgh is a city of tenements and Georgian terraces, with the Old and New Towns forming a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Marchmont, Bruntsfield and Newington are lined with tenement flats, Stockbridge and the New Town have Georgian townhouses, Leith has docklands conversions, and Corstorphine, Colinton and Cramond have villas and bungalows on the edge of the city.
Listed buildings, shared stairs and high ceilings make boiler work in Edinburgh more involved than a straight swap. When we price new boiler installation in Edinburgh we check the building’s status, the flue route and the hot water demand first, so the fixed price covers work that is allowed and fits.
Pick your boiler and date online and a Gas Safe registered engineer arrives to strip out the old unit, fit and commission the new one, register the warranty and leave the correct commissioning paperwork behind, keeping the work tidy in period homes.
Edinburgh is a World Heritage city of Georgian terraces, tenements and listed buildings, with soft water and its own building rules. Here is what we see most.
Edinburgh’s supply is soft to moderately soft, so scale is rarely a problem. We still check your postcode and fit a magnetic filter to protect the system.
Most flats need a compact combi and a flue route that suits stone walls. We check owners’ rules and any common-area consent first.
Listed townhouses have strict controls on external work. We plan discreet flue routes and flag any listed building consent needed.
Tall, drafty rooms need the output sizing carefully. We match the boiler to the heat loss, not just the floor area.
Waterfront conversions may have specified boilers and warranty conditions. We work within them and check building rules.
Edinburgh’s east coast winters can be cold and windy. We insulate external condensate pipes so they do not freeze.
Our Gas Safe engineers cover the whole city, from the Old and New Towns to Leith, Morningside, Portobello, Corstorphine and Cramond. See all our service areas.

Edinburgh’s water is soft to moderately soft, so scale is rarely an issue and most homes need no scale reducer. You can check your postcode on your supplier’s hardness checker. We still fit a magnetic filter to protect the system.
Yes. We remove the back boiler and associated fire, make the old flue and pipework safe, and install a modern condensing combi or system boiler in a more suitable position. This usually takes a little longer than a straight swap, and we’ll confirm the timescale before we start.
Boiler installations in Scotland fall under Scottish building standards, not the English Building Regulations. Your Gas Safe registered engineer commissions the boiler and issues the right paperwork, and will tell you whether any notification applies. In the Old and New Towns or a listed building, flue changes may need listed building consent, so check with Edinburgh Council before any external work.
Yes. Boiler finance in Edinburgh includes interest-free, 9.9% APR and buy now, pay later options, with deposits from £0 – see our boiler finance page. All finance is subject to status.
Yes. Your engineer will safely disconnect, remove and dispose of your old boiler, and any redundant tanks or cylinder if you’re switching to a combi.
All boilers we install come with a manufacturer-backed warranty, typically between 5 and 10+ years depending on the model. Keeping it valid usually means an annual service – our boiler cover plans take care of that for you.
Yes. If your home is off the mains gas network, we can replace an oil or LPG boiler. Oil boilers are fitted by OFTEC registered engineers and LPG boilers by Gas Safe registered engineers with LPG competence. See our oil boiler installation and replacement and LPG boiler installation and replacement pages for more detail.
