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

boiler repairs in Matching Tye: questions we get a lot
How quickly can you actually get out?▾
For genuine emergencies in Matching Tye — no heat, no hot water, an active leak — we aim for same-day. We'll tell you straight when we call back if a faster response isn't possible.
Do you charge an emergency callout fee?▾
We charge a clear diagnostic fee, told to you upfront before we set off. The repair itself is then quoted as a fixed price you agree before any work starts.
Are you 24/7?▾
We aren't a true 24-hour service — we're a small family business — but we pick up early and stay late, and we prioritise vulnerable households and no-heat situations through the day.
Do you guarantee repairs?▾
Yes — 12 months on the workmanship and any parts we supply.
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.
