Yep, I will definitely invite them! Thanks...

I don't know, they have come round lots of times and are putting quite a lot of pressure on us! But I think I will just arrange for GasSafe to come round in 6 weeks or something, if they can do that. That way I can tell the neighbours I am doing something to get them off my back for a bit, but...

OK thanks, well I am happy to employ a GasSafe registered engineer (the plumber who I called out was one) if there is something they can do that will resolve this... Unfortunately these neighbours do seem to be "complainers" - at one point they said they just wanted to carry on living in their...

Thanks, do you just mean if I do it myself (I realise that would be a bad idea!) or also if I get a plumber in to do it?

We have recently moved into a house which came with a new condensing boiler installed Nov 2014 (the house had been renovated by a developer). From what I know of the properties history the boiler hasn’t moved position from where it used to be, but now that it is a condensing boiler the plume...
