I'm wondering what you guys would do.
Kevin the tenant has been playing with the electrics, replacing plastic switches with metal and not earthing. Tapping into an existing shower circuit to install another shower using chock block and no enclosure, thinks he owns the place (you ought to see the plumbing!).
So when I have finished removing and putting Kevins handy-work right I'm thinking how can I trust he will not play again. It's my name on the EICR and he could invalidate it as soon as I walk out of the door. How do I cover myself? He may do something electrical that burns the place down and die in the inferno. HSE looks at who did the last inspection.
Normally 5 years to next test, I'm thinking I should be recommending a visual every 6 months whilst Kevin is the tenant.
What would you recommend?
 
Always ask for a ÂŁ100 call out . Then run like ---- after 45min. Just leave and never return. This has "tears " written all over it

Definitely, although most likely within the accessories. I've often found that once accessories are disconnected the cabling IR is fine. Sometimes...
