Starting from the ground up, we can provide drainage and rainwater systems, through to internal plumbing for cold and hot water supply to bathrooms, toilets, kitchens etc. right down to the outside tap for the garden.

Efficiency and extracting as much energy out of the relevant fuel is what it is all about today. The advances in technology over the years have introduced much better systems than of old, more reliable, cleaner, more controllable and of course much more efficient. We have the expertise and experience in design supply, installation and maintenance of many central heating systems using Gas, Oil, water and solid fuel, these include, high efficiency condensing boilers, combination boilers, electric wet systems and solid fuel systems.
Most householders tend to take their central heating system for granted until something goes wrong! Don't neglect an appliance you rely on everyday for hot water and throughout winter for central heating. Any customer who has a new boiler installed automatically is placed on our Annual Service Reminder list along with all customers who have had routine service done previously. Look after your boiler and it will look after you! It makes sense for peace of mind. Our engineers are fully trained in all fuel type systems that they work on, have your system checked today and keep safe.
If your boiler is a standard efficiency system then changing to a high efficiency boiler can save significant running costs every year. Over the past ten years there has been significant improvements in not only the running costs of modern boilers but also the control systems that are needed to programme heating and hot water times. Most of the replacement boilers we recommend and install carry a minimum of 5 years manufacturers warranty (conditions apply). Depending on current offer this could be up to 7 years for certain models.
Probably the most commonly used fuel source for urban environment today. Gas fueled central heating systems have really improved with the invent of the high efficiency condensing boiler. Presently most modern boilers will be providing in excess of 90% efficiency. Our preferred supplier Worcester Bosch are looking to improve this efficiency even further. We are currently Worcester Bosch "Gold" Installers, this allows us to offer above the industry standard extended warranties. Safety is paramount, our installers are all Gas Safe registered engineers, we have a policy of only installing and recommending high efficiency gas boilers.

As a landlord, you are responsible for the safety of your tenants. The Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 deal with landlords duties to make sure gas appliances, fittings and flues provided for tenants are safe. You are responsible for the maintenance and repair of flues, appliances and pipework which you own and have provided for your tenants use by a Gas Safe registered company such as ourselves. Although there is no prescribed time frame for these duties, good practice would be the demonstration of regular, annual maintenance checks and subsequent repairs.
WH Dorward Ltd has lead the way in embracing renewable heating systems. We were one of the first heating companies in the North East of Scotland to achieve MCS (Microgeneration Certification Scheme for the design and installation of Solar Thermal Hot water systems). We have invested heavily over the past few years in training and accreditation to ensure that our customers get the very best advice in whichever renewable technology they are interested in installing. The Scottish Executive is keen to encourage the use of renewable technologies in an effort to lower carbon emissions.
