Hello Sue,
To start I am not a plumber, however I do all my own maintenance and and installations. This sounds like you have a leak in the Direct Heating Water loop. In the combi boiler the DHW either heats the radiators or heats the incoming cold water indirtectly via a heat exchanger. If there is no obvious water leak in your heating system then the possibility is that the heat exchanger is leaking internaly and would need to be replaced. This would require someone who had the correct equipment to pressure test the heat exchanger to check for leaks.
If you had this problem prior to the maintenance being done, it is something that a good service "engineer" should have done before replacing parts in the hope of repairing the problem.

I hope this was of some help.
