    The chasing for a box and a channel is new and was carried out as per 2ndEl instruction. Ignore that for now. Nigel’s plan for the bottom row was: Feed the oven from the first white socket. The double socket will feed the washing machine and have a spare socket. He blanked the middle socket...

    I have a few videos to upload. Too big. How do you suggest I share them?

    It is not an existing kitchen, sir. It is a bare kitchen. The 1.8m cable has a join in it. Edit: the join is a type of bridge connector, connecting the boiler white cable with a pre-existing isolator switch cable that was dangling from the previous kitchen installation. Water can touch this...

    This is what he stated in his quote: “Kitchen F. Reposition 4 sockets flush & cooker switch, Replace centre light [free issue] “ He did not replace centre light for starters.

    * The 1.8m cable will run on floor under kitchen sink unit to cross over to the other wall where the boiler is. * YES, I wanted to avoid chasing to avoid redecorating but he did anyway on some pretext or other and it was shoddy chasing, which he filled with a rubbery white compound. He said...

    I won’t be able to post pictures today — not going to flat after all. (Am living elsewhere.) Am definitely planning to get pictures tomorrow before the start of new works. Re: contract. Please advise how to evidence that. Re: safety issues. The second electrician mentioned things like...

    Okay - I will be sure to get pictures today. I will try to get the new electrician to say on camera what the problems are. If not, will try to document what he says.

    I will post pictures. The new electrician starts work tomorrow. So I will make sure to capture the state of play before he starts. Already, upon the new electrician’s request, some chasing has been carried out. So whatever I post will NOT be how Nigel left things. It will be the start of the fix.

    Hello all, I just bought a flat and had an electrician install a new fuseboard, 2019 compliant, do some surface trunking to install new sockets, and prep the kitchen for renovation. Well, he turned out a “bad guy.” I could tell halfway in because he started saying that’ll cost extra to...
