Is it possible to repair a water leak in an oil heating boiler.
If so is it a long term solution or just a tempory fix?
How much for a replacement boiler same or different make?

Thanks.

Yes but usually not worth it

Its usually a temporary fix. The standard for a leak is corrosion showing 
through from the wet side. Repairs usually result in a bigger hole soon 
after!

Varies - ask at your local heating and plumbing supplier (Plumb Centre?) for 
the same make and model and ask for pricing of similar models by other 
makers such as Firebird, Worcester, Trianco

Dunno.

It all kind of depends where the leak is, and how available parts are
for your model.
It could be a 1 min job, tightening up a coupling that hadn't been properly
tightened at install time, or it could be that the heat exchanger needs
replaced as it's corroded through, and a new one obtained.
