Hello all.
I have recently passed my 2395, allowing me to carry out EICRs and have just thought of a possible scenario for which I'm not sure how I'd handle.
I do a lot of work for a letting agency and I know that when they get periodic reports carried out on their properties, if there are any rectifications required then another electrician/ company will put them right. This is to stop people from coming up with ridiculous 'faults' on their report, hoping it will drum up more work for them.
The scenario I am unsure of is if I deem an installation unsatisfactory and somebody else carries out the rectifications, what is the best way to then deem the installation satisfactory? Obviously I can't just just give them a new certificate stating 'satisfactory' without seeing whether the rectifications were carried out.
Would the letting agency/ customer need an invoice or a test certificate stating the other electrician had carried out the rectifications? Would they be able to attach this to my original EICR and that would be as good as having 'satisfactory' on it?
Thanks in advance!
