Central Heating & Boiler Servicing Scotland

A&K Heating Specialists is one of Scotland's leading heating company's that covers Scotland.  They run their successful service from Newton Stewart - beside the bonny banks of the Cree - famous for its salmon and fishing. 

A&K Heating Specialists 

The company is managed by Rae Kirkpatrick who has bags of experience having had almost 25 years in the trade, with the last 10 years running A&K Heating Specialists.  They specialize in domestic, commercial and leisure heating systems based on gas, LPG and electricity.  The electric heating systems are particularly popular because they use the same radiators as the more typical wet central heating system.   Also important is that a typical installation of his popular  electric heating system is usually less than 2 days! 

The resultant system is very efficient and running costs are typically less than LPG, oil and normal electric storage heaters. 

Business Objectives 

Saving customers money in the long term is A&K's key objective.  They offer a full installation service using energy efficient boilers for both domestic and commercial systems.  Their systems are backed up with the manufacturers warranty. 

As Rae says, "We like to offer our customers a service that could save them over a few years - now that's a good deal.  We're not in it just for today but for the long term - we love happy customers." 

Experience counts 

Rae brings with him over 25 years experience which includes working as a regional manager for a multi-national heating company.  It was his desire to make a difference and really look after his customers - something that large companies tend to forget -  that drove him to start A&K Heating Specialists.  The business is also a real family affair with Rae's wife Lorraine taking care of the office and other members of the family taking their respective roles from managing the http://www.aandkheating.com/ web site to installations and ensuring customer satisfaction. 

The Kirkpatrick's are fulfilling a long term ambition by working from a town for which they have had an enduring affinity.  Running the company from such a location with clean fresh air and a more tranquil lifestyle are just two of the reasons that they have moved back to Galloway.  It also gives Rae a chance to practice his goal keeping skills in the local team!  Yes, Rae also believes in supporting the local community in any way he can outwith his heating business.  Despite being in Galloway, A&K find that their customers across Scotland don't care because of the expertise and top class honest work they provide. 

In summary... 

With a professional approach and a solid reputation mixed with a Galloway outlook sounds like a pretty good combination.  As if to sum it up, Rae has made a promise that we don't hear too often these days. "If we say we are going to be there we will be there. If we say we are not going to make it, we will tell you in advance and we'll tell you why." He adds. "Its all about communicating and staying in touch with our customers."
