About The Stow

Original new-town neighbourhood centre. Many original 1960s flats with undersized gas supplies that we've upgraded over the years.

Predominantly 1950s–70s post-war housing with a mix of terraces, semis, and 60s-built flats. Pockets of older stock around Old Harlow.

What's specific to The Stow

How The Stow differs from the rest of Harlow

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

  • Original back boilers still common

    Back-boiler removals (with chimney capping and fireplace reinstatement) are routine for us in this area — usually a tidy two-day job.

  • Ex-council housing

    We do a steady stream of second-cycle replacements here — out goes the cheap-and-cheerful unit fitted in the 2008–2012 round, in goes a longer-warranty Worcester or Vaillant.
