What's specific to Old Harlow

How Old Harlow differs from the rest of Harlow

Old Harlow sits inside the wider Harlow area, but the housing and the jobs we get called to here have their own pattern.

  • Conservation area

    External flue routing and pipework planned to comply with conservation rules — usually surveyed up front so there are no surprises.

  • Low mains pressure

    We size the boiler against the actual measured flow rate at survey, not the brochure figure — so the shower performance matches expectations.

  • Listed properties

    We've handled listed building work locally — discreet flue terminals, sympathetic pipe runs, and listed building consent coordination where needed.
