boiler issues

The pressure in our boiler never stays at the right pressure? It rarely stays above 0.5-1 and when the heating is on it goes all the way up to the red!

I'm able to adjust the pressure but that doesn't help, any other suggestions?
I am due a boiler safety check thing though.

    Sounds like a fault with the pressure vessel. Faulty diaphragm maybe?
    That gum you like is coming back in style.

    I had this problem a few months back. The expansion vessel was full of water (it shouldn't be) and they re pressurised the system after pumping the water out. Took about 15 mins in total.
