Try using Google. You will get the answer quicker. But realistically there are only a few suppliers of gas, BOC, Air Products, Air Liquide, Adams and Hobbyweld. Maybe one more? With the first three you will need to open an account and pay a monthly rental, some of the others just charge a fairly large deposit on the cylinder, and a charge for each refill. Most of these suppliers have local agents in various parts of the country. It is just a case of finding them and comparing prices.

 

You will presumably be wanting argon with 5% CO2 mixture.

You pay £50 deposit, and there is no rental on the bottle!

Alternatively try your local fire extinguisher company, mine even gave me the bottle that they refill for me every so often, it's much cheaper too, think I payed £8 last time...

They deliver a couple of times a week in Kent!

 

I find them spot on!

I get c02 from a pub gas supplier. They gave me the bottle and I just needed a new regulator.
