As you can see, installing a combi boiler isn’t exceptionally difficult. I've sent them a message suggesting that they are being irresponsible.
Perhaps a few other people should follow suit.

Yup brains of squashy stuff me thinks.Bob
Love the way they say
"The most difficult part about this type of installation is figuring out the combi boiler pipework, especially if your home’s pipework is built into the walls."
Gotta be a wind up. The domain owners address in Liverpool doesn’t exist and the postcode is a Boots store in Manchester.

The link to Cylex: https://london.cylex-uk.co.uk/company/marketing-ronin-23719225.html says they "offer SEO strategies to help real estate agents and home improvement professional to increase their enquiries and local presence" (SEO = Search Engine Optimisation)
But this is interesting - in the Contact Persons section it lists
Stefanos Anastasiadis
MANAGEMENT
A name unusual enough, I thought, to be easily found on Companies House, and so it was: https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/officers/yS16Q_x6RYhT0qG17UD-rlxXTN8/appointments
He was the sole director of a now defunct company called HOMEIMPROVEMENTQUOTE LIMITED
Cylex also list a nearby marketingronin, i.e. no space in the name, same address. It's also run by Stefanos Anastasiadis.
Yell list the phone number 020 3290 0489 as belonging to an Art & Craft shop in Store Street:
The website is dead, but still registered. To Stefanos.
He has an amazingly similar mobile phone to Paul Johnson of homeadviceguide fame:
Coincidence?
Or a mistake when creating the Paul Johnson details in the same way that 29 Forge Square became 39 Forge Square? Is the whole "Forge Square" thing a joke?
An internet search for Paul's number yields nothing, but for Stefano's:
The first site contains a link to
The second one is down, but the cached entry shows that until it expired in Feb 2017, combi-boilers.info was registered to Stefanos Anastasiadis.
Of 61 Alie Street, London E1 8EB.
He gets around a bit, doesn't he.
Searching for his number without the leading zero:
"ComposeSite is free statistics and analytics service, where you can find information about every website." Maybe you can, but not up-to-date info. But in this case, that makes it more interesting.
Apparently until the middle of last year homeadviceguide.com was registered not to Paul Johnson of Liverpool, Greater Manchester, but to our old peripatetic chum Stefanos!
In the words of F.E.Smith, we are all now none the wiser but considerably better informed.

AFAIK there's no postal follow up or proof of ID or address needed when registering a domain.
FYI - I did get a reply:
