Some other installers on here sometimes criticise me for saying that the standard of competence in our industry is often lower than should be the case. I wonder what their view of this situation would be.
This is a prime example of people who should know better replacing parts which are not likely to be the cause and then having the cheek to charge for their incompetance. If they dont know then they should say so.
A British Gas fixed price repair at about £190 would have fixed it eventually. Why did you not use them?

"""Cleveland (pronounced /ˈkliːvlənd/) is a city in the U.S. state of Ohio and is the county seat of Cuyahoga County,[5] the most populous county in the state. The municipality is located in northeastern Ohio on the southern shore of Lake Erie, approximately 60 miles (100 km) west of the Pennsylvania border. It was founded in 1796 near the mouth of the Cuyahoga River, and became a manufacturing center owing to its location at the head of numerous canals and railroad lines. With the decline of heavy manufacturing, Cleveland's businesses have diversified into the service economy, including the financial services, insurance, legal, and healthcare sectors, though the city's population has continued to decline. Cleveland is also home to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.[6]"""
I cover all of London but charge a little more to go to the distant parts and dont always go the same day.
I also go to Reading, Staines Watford etc. and I have been to Kingston ( on Thames ) recently

Why when it comes to boilers do people insist on paying these clowns just to throw parts in. Sounds such a basic fault as well, such a simple lay out on these boilers. I think it would be very different if you picked the car up from the garage and they said it still has the same fault but here is a bill for 400 pounds.
agile why are you being a Muppet? clearly when his stated location is 'Cleveland, United Kingdom' he was really meaning from the states
must have been on the second bottle by then
