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 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
What you get when you book us
- Fixed price before any work starts
- Same-day response wherever possible
- Vulnerable household priority response
- Stocked van — most repairs done first visit
- Real human on the phone, not an answering service
