    Help required on behalf of Michelle, Problems with work done by a contractor.

    I'd like to think that the good and decent folk on here are helping me because I have a problem and not because I am female. When I sought to employ the services of a fitter, I asked for recommendations and went with those recommendations. Forgive me if I didn't study the Building Control...

    I haven't sought to explain the whole process as I was concerned with the electrical installation for the purpose of this forum. The guy was recommended by my previous next door neighbour who had her kitchen fitted by the same chap. He set the base units 30mm too high; he set the wall units...

    Right you lovely people, I need to go to work so will be back this evening. Citizen's Advice Consumer Group have told trading standards so he can be checked out a little more thoroughly.

    I've checked with the NICEIC; Nappir; Alexa and he is not registered with any of them. Shall I name and shame or can I get into trouble for that?? GRRR!

    Just been on to Citizens Advice Consumer Direct, they have advised me to ring the NICEIC to see if he is registered. I 'know' he isn't but it will be good to get it confirmed. Next I need to get a registered electrician to check and certify (read into that rip it out and do it properly) so I...

    stupidly, I accepted him on recommendation. Guess I am going to pay the price on that one.....

    Actually no. He was the middle quote that we had and was 'recommended' by a friend. £2K to fit out the kitchen is about what we expected.

    I live just outside Worcester, don't know where anyone is. Think I will take a trip to South Worcestershire BC this am and just see where the land lies. Not in a state of panic yet, just feeling a bit brassed off at being 'had over' by a lying hound!

    I've had no other certificates, apart from a Corgi gas installation certificate. Who do I report him to? Local Authority Building Control?

    sorry TPES and Mr Mike. I'm confused. The guy did everything joinery, plumbing, plastering and kitchen fitting.

    Thank you for your comments Mr Mike, I appreciate your time. He did know that we weren't tiling as we asked him if he would sort the walls ready for painting (due to the upstands). Thanks for the advice re the certification. so it basically means nothing? I wasn't there when he did the...

    Hi there, I am Michelle and HT was helping me out as I've been pretty clueless on this forum. Please let me explain that I'm not an electrician, but am a bit unhappy about what has happened in my kitchen. I had hoped to seek some advice and joined the forum as a result. Ok, down to it...
