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

Learn moreLocal, honest plumbing for Ivy Chimneys homes
We've been doing plumbing jobs in Epping 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.
And we don't cut corners on the bits you can't see — proper pipework, magnetic filter, full system flush where needed.
