If they’re not members of any competent persons scheme, then you won’t know if the rewire is safe or not, or if they know what they’re doing and I doubt any of the certifications will valid either. If I was your in-laws I would sack them and get another CPS registered electrician to complete...

Damage to laptop charger cables like this is very common, because people regularly wind the cables around the charger block very tightly and this eventually damages the flex cable, another common fault is the laptop charging pin/socket on either the laptop or the lead gets damaged causing a...
I have chased walls before, for over 30 years since I was at school. Before someone invented a machine to do it as well.....I find it very therapeutic. Originally I thought it was the complete job in one go, chase, install, wire it up, test and complete the certificate, but now it’s first and...
