Trusted for plumbing across The Stow
Our plumbing work in Harlow is built around three things: doing it properly, charging fairly, and being there afterwards if you need us.
Concrete-floor leaks are unusually common in Harlow's post-war housing — we use thermal imaging to trace them before lifting anything.
If something plays up in the first year, we come back and sort it. No quibbles, no callout fee.
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.
- 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 The Stow customers usually ask about plumbing
What's a fair price for this job in The Stow?▾
Pricing depends on the boiler, the existing pipework, and any system upgrades needed. We're typically 10-20% under the big national chains because we don't carry their overheads — and the workmanship is better.
Are quotes free?▾
Yes — quotes are always free, in writing, and there's no obligation. We don't do high-pressure sales.
Can you find a hidden leak?▾
Usually yes — we use thermal imaging and pressure testing to trace leaks behind walls and under floors before we cut anything open.
Do you fit electric showers?▾
Yes, plus mixer, thermostatic and digital. We'll check your mains pressure first to recommend the right type.
