Roughly 18 minutes from our Harlow base via M11 (J7). Same-day slots for CM16 on most weekdays, and a booked morning slot for anything non-urgent.
Do you know the housing stock around Epping High Street?▾
Yes — we work across Epping weekly. We see original fireplace back boilers still in many 1930s homes constantly. That means quicker diagnosis and a proper first-visit fix rate.

Around 30 minutes for a single-appliance property, up to an hour if there's a boiler, gas cooker and gas fire.
