Our Emergency Service

At Andrews, we are the UK’s leading specialist hire company with nearly 60 years’ experience supplying heating equipment to businesses and local authorities nationwide. We aim to help clients overcome urgent issues and assist them with long-term maintenance planning, offering cost-effective solutions no matter what the problem. Our highly-regarded and professional service gives our customers the peace of mind to use us repeatedly.

Our range of heating equipment covers virtually every scenario and region, from 1.5kW electric heaters for a single room to 42kW units and high capacity indirect fired oil heaters for a full warehouse.

Our network of 30 depots spread across the country allows us to provide instant services irrespective of your location.

Emergency Breakdown Response

With over 30 depots and a 24/7 callout rota, we provide an in-depth knowledge and range of equipment to counteract all scenarios – including breakdowns. Free site surveys are also offered to clients so our expert technicians can determine the best solution for your premises. Instant delivery of our heating units is guaranteed and we can even oversee installation if required.

We serve all industry sectors, ranging from small business to multi-site companies and global corporations. In recent years we have worked on projects for construction companies, retailers, hospitals, leisure centres and government services. Whatever your applications, Andrews Heat for Hire can provide you with an emergency package to match your specific requirements. Whether you’re in need of emergency breakdown or just want to supplement your existing system with additional units during the winter period, we can help.

During the colder months your heaters and boilers are particularly susceptible to failure after long spells of inactivity or moderate use. Where the failure is in the plant room rather than the space heating, emergency boiler hire covers heating and hot water together. Leaks are often responsible for breakdowns, and they are frequently not spotted until it is too late. We aim to be on your site within 4 hours of contact and will design a temporary heating solution to keep output at the desired level.

We also provide a wide range of mobile boilers which are available for long or short term hire, for more details view here.

Planned Maintenance and Contingency Cover

Planned maintenance for your heating system is essential because it can save you hundreds of pounds in the long term. By preserving your unit and carrying out necessary upkeep you can help prevent your boiler or heating system failing in the future. Once broken or damaged, units can be difficult to repair but at Andrews Sykes we will always provide a viable solution.

By simply running your heating once or twice a month to keep it running efficiently, you can guard against unexpected breakdowns. However, we will act instantly in the event of system failure to restore  your heat source and get your business back up and running. Our expert consultants will design and modify a package while guaranteeing the most cost-effective solution.

We offer a 24/7 contingency service for the duration of every hire; so if you encounter problems during hire we will send a technician immediately to correct the issue. We will guide you towards an appropriate solution while maintenance is being conducted – providing you with an unwavering heat supply while repairs are carried out.
