Looks like I'm going to need a new boiler soon. Mine's leaking and British Gas say they can't get the parts anymore. To be fair it is over 20 years old.
Can anyone recommend a good company to use? Don't have to be out-and-out cheapest as long as they're good!

I use Faulkners:

They seem okay. I don't know how they compare price-wise though, I use them because the previous owners of our house recommended them. But they turn up when they say they will, and they do a good job.

Hi. 2nd vote and big thumbup for Richard Hukin, too. He did a job for us late last year and he's by far the best and most reliable plumber I've met. Good value, too (and a really nice bloke). I've got no connection with him, but relied on 2 posts by MadMacMcMad and PETE GT3 (M3) (cheers for the posts, maddy and Pete) ages ago and just called him out of the blue.
HTH.
