24-hour plumbing in Matching Tye
We're not a true 24/7 chain — we're a small local team — but we pick up early, stay late, and respond fast when Matching Tye customers genuinely need us. For overnight emergencies we'll triage by phone and get out at first light. For plumbing jobs in Matching Tye we work cleanly, isolate properly, and never just clamp a leak when it needs a proper soldered or pressed joint.
You're not getting a call centre — you're getting Grant.
The same engineer quotes the job, does the work, and answers the phone afterwards if anything's not right.

About Matching Tye
Quiet rural hamlet east of Harlow with a tight cluster of period and modern detached homes around the green. Many properties off the mains gas grid with LPG or oil heating.
Detached period and modern infill. Several listed properties affecting flue placement.
- Original 1960s flats often have undersized gas supply pipes that limit modern combi performance
- Older Old Harlow properties frequently have low mains water pressure that affects combi choice
- Many 60s/70s back boilers still in service — our regular work involves removing these and reinstating fireplaces

plumbing in Matching Tye: questions we get a lot
Are you open right now?▾
We answer the phone from early morning until late evening on most days. Even outside hours, leave a message and we usually call back within a couple of hours for genuine emergencies.
Should I call a national 24/7 firm instead?▾
If you need someone literally on-site at 3am, the national chains have that. If you can wait a few hours, you'll usually get a better job, a fairer price and a real engineer by waiting for us.
Do you fit electric showers?▾
Yes, plus mixer, thermostatic and digital. We'll check your mains pressure first to recommend the right type.
How fast can you respond to a burst pipe?▾
We aim for same-day. Call us first — we can talk you through stopping the water immediately while we head over.
