About Harlow

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

Why Harlow customers pick us for boiler servicing

We've been doing boiler services in Harlow long enough to know which streets have shared chimneys, which estates have undersized gas supplies, and which boilers tend to fail first.

That experience means we get the spec right at the survey, not halfway through the install.

And we don't cut corners on the bits you can't see — proper pipework, magnetic filter, full system flush where needed.

Frequently asked questions — boiler servicing, Harlow

Are Glow-worm and Vaillant the same?

Same parent group, often shared componentry, but Glow-worm sits at a lower price point with shorter warranties. Good value for rental properties.

How often should a boiler be serviced?

Once a year. It's almost always required to keep the manufacturer's warranty valid, and it catches small issues before they become breakdowns.

Do you do landlord CP12 certificates?

Yes — combined service + CP12 packages available, with bulk pricing for landlords with multiple properties.
