Here's a picture of a board which had some headers forced into it which were too large, damaging the contacts:
The outer rows of the Sharpie'd area make intermittent contact, so we avoid the whole section. Notice that some of the numbers are rubbed off, and also notice the burnt spot at the top of the picture where something burned up.
The breadboard still has two other middle sections, and this section is only 20 rows tall, so that leaves 172 good rows. On a university budget, that doesn't merit replacing the board. If you are demonstrating breadboarded circuits to a client, you should probably replace the whole thing.
By the way, this board is at least 8 years old, and still works fine except for the indicated area. I've only been around it for three years, but no one has had any problems with it that I've heard of.
There's veroboard, perfboard and stripboard.
With these, you can either cut tracks or wire wrap.

You could mount both breadboards on a common plate. This could be almost anything - metal, plastic, wood. Adhesive velcro works well for holding the breadboards to the plate.
