Tell him to quote you for repairing what it is, rather than for guessing what it could be.
Does he guarantee that the 200 quid repair (+ vat or labour by any chance?) or is it a trial and error story?

There really are only 3 questions you should ask:
How much will it cost?
How long will it take?
Will the boiler work reliably after I have paid you £x?
Why would you give a flying fart in a high wind what it is, how it works and why it keeled over? If he can't diagnose the fault well enough to be able to guarantee that replacing the warpplasmacoilspannerdiodesequenceranalysingsensor will do the trick, you need to find another engineer.
Sorry, I think I spelled warpplasmacoilspannerdiodesequenceranalysingsensor wrong, the spell checker is bloody useless.
I have this great desire to ask if the plumber was Irish but apparently we are not meant to ask!
It sounds as if this "cbvc" is actually a motor valve. I have never heard of that term and wonder if your plumber doesn't know the correct term or is just trying to bamboozle you.
They cost about £50 to buy. We charge an additional £60 to our diagnostic fee of £84 if its necessary to drain the system but usually we can repair them without draining.
It could also be a control or wiring fault.
