About Matching Green
One of the largest village greens in Essex, ringed with period cottages and listed buildings. Heating work here often touches conservation considerations and chimney capping for back-boiler removals.
Period cottages, several Grade II listed. Chimney work needs careful conservation handling.
- 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
Matching Green homeowners trust us for heating upgrades — here's why
Our heating upgrades work in Harlow is built around three things: doing it properly, charging fairly, and being there afterwards if you need us.
That last bit matters — a lot of installers vanish the moment the invoice clears. We don't.
If something plays up in the first year, we come back and sort it. No quibbles, no callout fee.

Do you charge more on weekends?▾
Saturdays are charged at our standard day rate. Sunday emergency callouts carry a small uplift — we'll tell you the exact figure before you commit.
Can I book a routine service for a Saturday?▾
Yes — Saturdays are popular for services and CP12s, so book a couple of weeks ahead if you can.
Do I really need a power flush?▾
If radiators have cold patches, your boiler is noisy, or you're fitting a new boiler to an older system, yes. Otherwise a chemical flush and magnetic filter is often enough.
How much does a power flush cost?▾
Typically £450–£750 depending on system size and number of radiators. We give a fixed price after a quick survey.
