So I definitely need my gas copper pipework from the meter to all appliances replacing? What's annoying me is the fact the leak was clearly caused by ideal on the boiler! So because of them I now have to have all my pipework replaced because their has never been any smell of gas apart from from the boiler after they came. I know it's not their fault the pipework has a pressure drop but the smell of gas was caused by them and if it wasnt for that it would pass a gas safety due to never having an issue! Also this is a little off topic but I've been made aware I have to top up limestone chippings in the soakaway. My neighbours have a pipe which goes straight underground! I cant see a soakaway. If it is its buried. If the pipe just goes underground against the house could it cause problems?
No, you simply need to have someone find the leakage or leakages. If this began with your boiler being disturbed, then the likelihood is that it will be the boiler or the pipework around the boiler.

The test was carried out with boiler isolated but oven and fire still connected. The reading was 0.4 according to ideal. 0.36 when someone from my work tested it and 0.22 when the plumber who issued me with a certificate tested. No smell of gas now. The smell of gas was caused when ideal messed with the boiler. There was a 2mb pressure drop before ideal come back to the boiler l
