Leak detection and regassing in Edinburgh
Flare joints are a frequent leak point on older split systems, so they are among the first things checked on a visit in Edinburgh. Long Scottish heating seasons make efficiency in cold, damp weather the thing to design around.
If a system in Edinburgh has needed gas before, the original leak was probably never fixed. As well as Edinburgh itself, our Edinburgh and the Lothians coverage takes in Livingston, Musselburgh and the towns around them. That includes the EH1, EH2, EH3, EH5, EH6 and 3 more postcode districts.
Prices in Edinburgh
Our Central and Southern Scotland guide price for leak detection and regassing is £225–£895 leak find, repair and recharge, VAT included. Labour rates in Central and Southern Scotland keep this slightly under the national middle. The main variables are the number of indoor units, access to the outdoor unit and whether any parts are needed. For reference, the Standard option in Edinburgh (leak in pipework or valve, full recharge) usually comes to about £365–£595.
