2014 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4 engine. Water in the reservoir keeps boiling and engine heating up even after replacing water tank and head gasket.

Hi, any advice would be appreciated. It's at 64 plate Vauxhall Corsa 1.4. We took it to a mechanic he first advised to replace the water tank after that didn't resolve the issue he replaced the head gasket. It seemed fine after replacing the head gasket for a few days but there was only short drives. After taking a longer drive today the water in the water tank is boiling again and I have to stop the car and wait for it to cool down as I don't want the engine to over heat. The water in the tank boils and you can feel the heat from the engine, this is after the costly gasket repair. I can't replace the car yet. What do you think the issue could be?
