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

  • Real human on the phone, not an answering service
  • All major brands — Worcester, Vaillant, Ideal, Baxi, Glow-worm

Frequently asked questions — boiler repairs, Matching Tye

Why have I lost hot water but heating still works?

On a combi boiler this is the classic diverter valve symptom — the valve that switches the flame between heating and hot water has stuck. Common, and usually a one-visit fix.

How much will it cost?

Diverter valve replacement on most boilers is £180–£320 fitted. We'll give you a fixed price after diagnosis before any work starts.

Do you guarantee repairs?

Yes — 12 months on the workmanship and any parts we supply.

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.
