Should I change the whole water and heating system to a combi boiler?

hi Please could you advise what would be the best way of dealing with not-so-old tank system boiler? It was installed at the beginning of 2014 and still works fine, however the actuator valve is to be replaced, the cold water storage tank is to be replaced (too small and terribly dirty with no lid), the hot water cylinder soon will need to be replaced (30 years old), the shower pump is broken and needs replacement, the heating pump apparently will need a replacement soon. I am intending to install two new showers into newly refurbished bathrooms, we are a small family and we are not intending to bath/ shower all of us at once. We are used to a combi boiler and we like it very much, however previously we lived in a flat so it is difficult for me to establish if the new combi boiler is sufficient for a detached house with three bedrooms. The water pressure seems to be fine in the kitchen, however I cannot say if it would be OK on the first floor, as the current water pump is broken and the water system is connected to it. what would be the need for the alternation of the existing pipe work? please would you be able to advise what would be the most cost effective and sensible? Should I change the whole water and heating system to a combi boiler? thanks
