About Ivy Chimneys

Established residential area south-west of Epping with predominantly post-war housing.

Inter-war semis and 1930s detached homes dominate, with newer infill closer to the station and conservation-sensitive areas near the forest.

  • Original fireplace back boilers still in many 1930s homes
  • Tree protection orders can affect external pipe and flue routing
  • Older systems with cast-iron radiators need careful flushing

What you get when you book us

  • Fixed price before any work starts
  • Vulnerable household priority response
  • Real human on the phone, not an answering service
  • Honest 'is it worth fixing?' advice
  • 12-month repair guarantee

Frequently asked questions — boiler repairs, Ivy Chimneys

Why has my heating stopped working?

Top causes: frozen condensate pipe in cold weather, low system pressure, a seized pump after summer dormancy, or a stuck motorised valve. Most are quick fixes once diagnosed properly.

Can I do anything before you arrive?

Check the boiler pressure (should be 1.0-1.5 bar cold). If it's below 0.5, top up using the filling loop. If you can hear the boiler firing but radiators stay cold, the issue is in the system, not the boiler itself.

Do you charge a callout fee?

We charge a clear diagnostic fee (told to you upfront before we attend). It covers proper on-site diagnosis. The repair itself is then quoted as a fixed price you agree before any work starts.

How fast can you come out?

We aim for same-day on no-heat and no-hot-water situations. Tell us when you call if anyone elderly or with young children is in the property — we prioritise.
