    Kitchen electrical work

    Thanks again. Just don't understand why he wouldn't want to certificate the work he done and do a proper job, regardless of the issue with the consumer unit. Its not like it was a pittance i paid for the work.The best of it is, hes back out tomorrow to sort out the issues i have flagged up. What...

    Kitchen electrical work

    I do agree about the certificate, i thought it was a bit strange, regardless of the type of consumer unit i have. The couple other quotes I had done prior to install by this guy, said the exact same thing if there were to go ahead with the job. So are they all on fiddle locally ?? The consumer...

    Kitchen electrical work

    I was informed by the electrician he couldn't certificate the work, due to the consumer unit not inline with 18th edition standards, which would be a fail. Couple of the other quotes from other electricians said the exact same thing if they were to do the work. Only way around it to certificate...

    Kitchen electrical work

    Stupidly enough the joiner has already been paid, for all work. I payed him in installments with completion of each part (as far as I knew!)...He sorted out the electrician out of his own pocket which was then added into overall cost, no doubt a little extra for him. He has kept to his word up...

    Kitchen electrical work

    So the conduit should be attached to a gland for sealant. The thing is this is right behind my washing machine. I'm beginning to wish I had got another electrician in myself now, as I'm guessing this is all bog standard stuff he should know and be doing for safety.

    Kitchen electrical work

    The reply i got back from the joiner that brought in the electrician, was that 'the sparky had fitted it right on the floor, due to issues with space for plug on the wall'? I'm just glad I double checked everything over and have since been back in touch with the joiner who is dealing with the...

    Kitchen electrical work

    I genuinely didn't know it was like that until I pulled out the tumble dryer. I have been in touch with the joiner who was dealing with the electrician who done the work, as I'm extremely annoyed about this. Is the socket that has been attached to the floor ok, or should I be concerned about...

    Kitchen electrical work

    Update on works ongoing. Supposedly no need to fit two way fusebox, kitchen electrical appliances were safe enough to run off existing consumer board. Not really happy with loose switch and socket that was left behind tumble as per picture. Also unsure about socket which has been attached to...

    Kitchen electrical work

    I won't need a building warrant as I am not making alterations to the building which is what is stated from my local council. But will need an EIC, but reading between the lines from the conversation I had with my my joiner, the electrician is doing the work basicly as a "homer". Which has got...

    Kitchen electrical work

    I'm in Scotland so will have to check legislation up here. Can't see it being much different. Also from what you are saying, the two way fusebox thats due to be fitted for the electrics in the kitchen, that would also come under small electrical work? Thanks
