Weigh repair against replacement on the findings, not the first quote. The fault, the age of the appliance, available parts and any safety finding all count. If replacement means a new flue on a street-facing wall in the Hampstead Conservation Area, that work needs planning permission. Check the exact address.

A diagnosis starts with how the boiler behaves, not the part you suspect. Note when it stops, what it was doing at the time and whether the same fault has happened before. A repeat fault can call for a different decision from a one-off, so the history is worth writing down.

Ask for the diagnosis in writing. Anyone you employ for gas work must be on the Gas Safe Register. Their ID card shows what they are competent to do. It is illegal to use a gas appliance you suspect is unsafe: turn it off and do not touch it until checked.
