Answer:

A few questions: Do you have radiant, in floor heat? Or, do you have room radiators or base board radiators? Also, do you know what they did to fix the boiler? Please post a little more info! Thanks!
Do you have those tubes in floor heating, yes -thats it, no- you better get the servce person back out soon and fix it.
it sounds like you have a broken hot water pipe under the slab, this will create the hot spot. You can look at the water meter and see if the small traingle is spinning, if it is try shutting of the hot water supply going into the boiler and check the meter again, if it has stopped spinning now then you know for sure the leak is on the hot water side. ( meaning there is a leak in on of the hot water pipes )
