Just been sent these from a friend. Plasterer had been asked to go and make good the ceiling.

Seems the ‘electrician’ told the old dear that it was the only way to do it because it was a flat roof. Basically taking advantage of her.

She’s now left with a hefty bill for a suspended ceiling to be done or get another electrician to rectify.

I think the biggest mistake made was in not using white cable and hiding her glasses.

WHY? Why would anyone do this? I'm genuinely struggling to see how someone could have done a job this badly.

Something odd here. The wall has been chased and filled. Why would they bother to do that if they were going to chuck the rest of the length on the surface of the ceiling? Maybe the plan was for a dropped ceiling in the first place?

Apparently the electrician told the old dear that she would have to have a suspended ceiling as there was ‘nowhere to run the cables’ with it being a flat roof ext.

Which as we all know is bo**cks as there is still a ceiling void.
