It’s not my house but my friend is doing some renovation, she mentioned it to me but she doesn’t know if to get someone out or not to look at it? It’s not owned by her but her landlord doesn’t have time to check and tell her but the she thinks they may be getting too hot and that’s why there’s black behind them? It’s a combi potterton promax , any ideas?
Do I need the pipes replacing? Or just a clean?

Tell her it’s absolutely nothing to worry about, it’s scorch marks from soldering. Whoever did the work, didn’t protect the area very well, if at all. Easily painted over. The grey on the pipes (in case she’s worried by this too) is from soldering too, it’s solder and just sloppy/rushed workmanship.
Just burn marks when someone was soldering
Why would she have paid if she is renting?
Her landlord takes forever to sort anything and he’s ok with her doing renovations etc
No it isnt
We know what Nige meant.

Well you might but I dont, he said its the law , it isnt so why say it, so what did he mean then ?
Landlords are legally required to renew their gas safety certificate every year.

And what has a gas safety certificate got to do with your boiler being serviced ?
I haven't mentioned a service!
