I know someone but would need to know the problem first mate. If it's a small job (1min-2hrs) it would be £50 well thats what it cost me anyway.

My combi boiler is only a year old and we have to pressurise it every couple of weeks but the plumber did say we might have to on occasion and its only a couple of taps to open and close for a few seconds then the pressure builds and its all ok again and speaking to my neighbours they have to do the same, some as much as every week, don't know how fast its losing its pressure m8 but it sounds like the actual pump in the boiler isnt putting out the pressure, maybe its a bit tired.......

I think i will give him a call Mark cheers.
My combi is playing up like a pig. I reckon its the diaphram gone but i refuse to play with it.
Been there and done that before which ended in a almighty bang and the boiler litterly blew its self to bits many many years ago about 3 am in the morning.
Simon fingers crossed for you mate its a leaking pipe somewhere as that is going to be the cheapest one to repair.
I did all my own plumbing that had to be altered when i did my knocking down internal walls business and i check the pressure gauge on my boiler everyday as i am pranoid to hell i may have a leak cause most my new pipes are under the floor
But mine never drops, thank god
