Plumbers in Dunfermline, backed by 400+ five star reviews
Rated Excellent on Google, Trustpilot, Fife Trusted Trader and Facebook.
Every review is from a real local customer. Here's why.
Plumbing, from the team that fits your heating
Many plumbing problems in a Dunfermline home are heating problems in disguise: a damp patch under a radiator, pressure that keeps dropping, a room that never warms up. Our plumbers and Gas Safe registered engineers look after the whole system, from the boiler to the last radiator, so you deal with one local team.
We trace the fault to its cause, explain it in plain English and recommend the repair that fits, not the most expensive one.
Dunfermline is our home town, and our office is on Dickson Street in the city centre. Homes here run from stone-built Victorian houses and tenements near the centre to the large estates on the east side of the city.
We specialise in heating plumbing, so we don't repair taps, toilets, showers or shower trays.
Why choose our plumbers?
What our plumbers help with
From a single weeping valve to a system that has never worked properly.
LeaksLeaking pipes and valves
We trace leaks from radiator valves, joints and heating pipework, then repair or replace the part that has failed and bring the pressure back up.
RadiatorsRadiator replacement and upgrades
Tired, damaged or undersized radiators replaced and sized for the room, with the valves and balancing checked at the same time.
TRVsRadiator valves and TRVs
Set each room to the temperature it needs. Seized or leaking valves replaced.
FiltersMagnetic filters
Catch sludge before it reaches the boiler. Fitted to existing systems and cleaned at every service.
Power flushingPower flushing and system cleaning
Radiators cold at the bottom are usually full of sludge. We check the cause first, then flush the system so water circulates freely again.
ControlsSmart heating controls
Hive and Tado controls installed and set up, so the heating runs around the way you actually live. Worcester Bosch controls come with a new Worcester Bosch boiler.
Smart thermostat installation in Dunfermline
A smart thermostat lets you run the heating from your phone, set a schedule that matches how you actually live, and stop heating an empty house. We fit and set up Hive and Tado as a separate job, wire them to your boiler properly, and show you how they work before we leave. Worcester Bosch controls are fitted with a new Worcester Bosch boiler.
If your boiler is a combi, the control is fitted to the boiler's own terminals so features like load compensation work as they should. On older systems with a hot water cylinder we fit the version that controls heating and hot water separately.
Every new boiler we install already comes with a Boiler Plus compliant wireless thermostat. A smart control is the upgrade on top, and can be added at installation or any time after.
| Hive | Heating, or heating and hot water. Works with most boilers. |
| Tado | Room by room control with smart radiator valves. |
| Worcester Bosch | Made for Greenstar boilers, with fault reporting in the app. |

Homes and heating in Dunfermline
Dunfermline is Scotland's ancient capital, home to Dunfermline Abbey and Palace and the birthplace of Andrew Carnegie. It was made a city in 2022.
Around the city centre
Stone-built Victorian and Edwardian houses, flats and tenements sit around the centre, the Abbey and Pittencrieff Park. Some still run a regular or system boiler with a hot water cylinder.
Established estates
Areas such as Abbeyview, Touch, Garvock and Pitcorthie were built through the second half of the last century, with homes running every make and age of boiler.
The east of the city
Duloch, Halbeath and the newer estates on the east side are mostly recent builds, where many boilers are still inside their manufacturer guarantee.
We cover every part of Dunfermline, including Abbeyview, Duloch, Halbeath, Pitcorthie, Pitreavie, Garvock, Touch, Bellyeoman, Baldridgeburn, Wellwood, Woodmill, Townhill, Masterton and Brucefield.
Plumbing and heating repairs in Dunfermline homes
From older pipework in the centre to plastic pipe in the new builds, every age of plumbing is found across Dunfermline.
Older homes near the centre
Older houses often have a mix of original and newer pipe. Leaks, sticking valves and cold radiators are the usual jobs.
Flats and tenements
A leak in a flat can reach the neighbour below quickly. We find the source and make it safe first, then carry out the repair.
New builds in the east
Newer homes use plastic push-fit pipe, which needs the right fittings. We repair push-fit and copper pipework alike.

Frequently asked questions about our plumbers in Dunfermline
Do you cover all of Dunfermline?
Yes. We cover the whole of Dunfermline (KY11 and KY12 postcodes), along with Rosyth, Crossford and Dalgety Bay. Enter your postcode when you book online and you will see the slots available.
One room never gets warm. Can you fix that?
Usually, yes. A room that stays cold can be a radiator that is too small for the room, a valve that is stuck or set too low, or a system that needs balancing. We check which it is before recommending anything.
Are you plumbers or heating engineers?
Both. Our plumbers and Gas Safe registered heating engineers work on everything connected to your heating system, from the boiler and pipework to radiators, valves and controls.
Do you repair taps, toilets or showers?
No. We specialise in heating systems, so we do not repair taps, toilets, showers or shower trays.
Can you fix a leaking pipe or radiator valve?
Yes. We trace the leak, then repair or replace the valve, joint or section of pipe that has failed. If water is escaping, turn off your stop tap where it is safe to do so and switch the boiler off before calling us.
Why is my radiator cold at the bottom?
Warm at the top and cold at the bottom usually means sludge inside the radiator. Cold at the top usually means air and needs bleeding. We check the cause first, then recommend the right fix, which may or may not be a power flush.
Do you replace radiators and fit TRVs?
Yes. We replace damaged, leaking or undersized radiators and fit thermostatic radiator valves so you can control the temperature room by room.
Do you install magnetic filters?
Yes. We fit magnetic filters to existing systems, and every new boiler we install comes with a magnetic filter and system flush included.
Is a repair visit a fixed price?
Yes. A repair visit is £120 inc VAT, paid when you book. If the fix needs more than the visit allows, we quote it before any extra work starts.
Do you work for landlords as well as homeowners?
Yes. We carry out heating plumbing for homeowners and landlords, and we also provide landlord gas safety certificates.
