Try getting flat mr glyphs, starting with boots or meki pendant + pots and rushing chalice of harmony, it will make you quite a bit tankier vs those tough mages and let you be a bit more aggressive since you will have some protection vs their damage and very good mana regen to harass them back strongly (remember to throw wrenches at them too whenever possible, they add up).

As for turret placement, vs a ranged champ that is pushing at all, I find a pretty good place for turrets is back by your ranged minions... this way the turrets will help you keep the lane stable, let you safely farm all enemy minions as they get past the minions the enemy champ is killing, and be in a spot where he needs to get close (within grenade range), and pretty much cross your minion line in order to destroy them or come after you.

Heimer has insane amounts of lane sustain, as long as they can't burst you down all at once, you should be able to stay around forever... even if they poke you hard or you trade attacks and end up taking more damage, you will end up better off than them, since you have your passive to get your health back quickly.
