    Bathroom light setup

    Thanks - Salient advice. I will certainly not be posting any names of businesses here :D. Luckily, through the conveyancing process we have legal confirmation of who has done the work and through an EICR evidence of what has not been complied with. Will be taking it up privately with the company...

    Bathroom light setup

    Ah - I see. Luckily nope - although it is very brittle around the fixtures :D 1568746556 As this was done in 2005-7ish would, from the pictures, you say that this is not up to regs then? Basically, I'm documenting what this known and still operating building company has done in order to raise...

    Bathroom light setup

    Thanks. Will probably remove and reinstate original setup - but that is good to know as a better way for things to have been done (I fear we have similar issues in a kitchen and a utility room). As this was done in 2005-7ish would, from the pictures, you say that this is not up to regs then...

    Bathroom light setup

    So to clarify think this was all installed 2005-7 sometime. We had EICR done before exchange. I've removed the halogen GU10s that were there and put LED replacement GU10s. So, not quite sure what you mean? 1568746151 Thanks. I'm hoping that earth is present at the old rose/switch (the rest of...

    Bathroom light setup

    Hi, Thanks in advance for some extra eyes.... In our house the bathroom ceiling height has been reduced to fit in some spots. We've recently moved in and during replacing the GU10s with LED bulbs discovered this state of affairs. They've extended the feeds from the old ceiling rose and switch...

    Building control / works certificate

    Anyone want to do this in Sheffield in a couple of months time let me know :D

    Building control / works certificate

    Thanks for your replies. Much appreciated. It would - on a general level - be quite interesting to get 3 electricians to do an EICR on the same property and see what was / wasn't picked up. Not as a finger-pointing exercise but simply to see what different interpretations or focuses there may be.

    Building control / works certificate

    It's ok in our case we're not knocking £1000s off for this report.

    Building control / works certificate

    By -------s - do you mean they're all minor issues, or actually not coded up the correct way, or in fact both?

    Building control / works certificate

    That sounds a fair point!

    Is an annual boiler service important?

    Yes. Worth it for the knowledge that no gas leaks, combustion chamber leaks or flue leaks have developed. Also keeps future cost down as maintain (like for cars) saves you in the long run. Our 12 year Vaillant we are told looks like new inside - as we picked a proper service (not expensive...

    Building control / works certificate

    Here's the report minus my address details and the electrician's details :D

    Building control / works certificate

    The latter I believe.

    Building control / works certificate

    Not being an expert myself I'm genuinely intrigued about the observations, and what would make you suggest a different view. Is it a matter of approach with a set of frameworks kind of thing?

    Building control / works certificate

    No planning permission was needed for the work.
