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

Why Matching Tye customers pick us for boiler repairs

We've been doing boiler repairs 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.

Diverter valve and PCB faults are particularly common across Harlow's older Worcester 24i and Vaillant ecoTEC units installed in the 2008–2014 boom.

Things Matching Tye customers usually ask about boiler repairs

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.

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.

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.
