Its all ok :D he's gone and i've only paid an hour labour and for one of the parts (because he fitted the other one without asking me)... I think i must be scarier than i realised! Hope you all have a grand (great! :wink: ) day Clare

now he has the front combustion chamber cover off... please, someone tell me if what he is doing is right or if i should march up and tell him to get the finger out....! thats near an hour and 10mins to fit the pcb plate. that was all he had to do Clare

sorry, boiler* overflow

eh noiler overflow i think. it seems to have stopped now. Still workin on this bloody plate tho. is it really that difficult to whip out a circuit board and put a new one in or am i missing some part of the process that takes an hour? Now the overflow has started again Clare

no sorry i meant a rough estimate would be great (as i helpful) not as in £1000! my fault for not bein clear enough. He's now been here nearly an hour with the right bit but he seems to be arsing around

Ok, so if i phone the guy and jus tell him that my CH and HW have stopped he'l be able to quote me there and then? or is there something specific i need to mention? im sorry to sound like such a dumbass here! Thanks for all your help Clare

Ok, sounds like a plan. How much does Danny charge for a call out fee? Thing is i dont want to get stuck with a huge bill i cant afford to pay as thats bad for both me and the dude im meant to be paying!! Clare

"low speed fan with no demand" - not sure what you mean by this. sorry!!

Hi, Thanks for replying so fast! :) The heating was working fine but now seems to have stopped (it should have come on with the timer at about 4 but nothing has happened) and turning on the hot tap produces a lovely flow of freezing cold water. How do i go about checking the fan and...
