Diverter valve and PCB faults are particularly common across Harlow's older Worcester 24i and Vaillant ecoTEC units installed in the 2008–2014 boom.

About Matching Green

One of the largest village greens in Essex, ringed with period cottages and listed buildings. Heating work here often touches conservation considerations and chimney capping for back-boiler removals.

Period cottages, several Grade II listed. Chimney work needs careful conservation handling.

  • 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

Things Matching Green customers usually ask about boiler repairs

How often should I need to top up?

A healthy sealed system should hold pressure for 6-12 months between top-ups. Anything more frequent points to a leak.

Could it be the expansion vessel?

Yes — a perished expansion vessel inside the boiler is a common cause. We test the vessel as part of diagnosis.

Is it worth repairing an old boiler?

Honest answer: if it's over 12 years old and the repair is more than £400, replacement usually makes more financial sense. We'll lay out both options without pressure.

Do you guarantee repairs?

Yes — 12 months on the workmanship and any parts we supply.
