Bad contractor

[Jon Bateson]

39 flats all with fictional certificates ‘purchased’ for £250 each. Multiple problems on all flats and then to top it off I finally got the plant room door open to find this

Who regulates these private building controllers?

CIcair. The inspectors in question are registered.

In fairness throw up a few slabs of plasterboard and it's sorted.

Agree and that should have been done prior to sign off, and certainly prior to habitation.

bricks and mortar is king. sod all this build it out of firewood and glue plasterboard over like a sticking plaster covering a festering wound. building regs. My Arse . more like a recipe for disaster.

The biggest issue with that is the lack of fire protection and fire compartments. Yes the wiring is rough but if a fire started it will be out of control very quickly.

Westward I agree totally 100 percent

And these are the people that get away with it while the rest of us jump through hoops and do it right.

I trust you have raised your concerns in writing to the person(s) responsible for electrical safety and fire safety in the building ? Oh yes, and keeping a copy so you can show that it was known about should another Grenfell happen.
Also, if there's any evidence that the contractors were members of any scheme, then report them to the scheme(s).

Yes done that. Have Warwickshire fire safety officer and HSE on site tomorrow. And NICEIC are particularly interested
