Electrician gone Awol

[Rabidruffryder]

Hi all, looking for some urgent advice please.

Purchased a property, old Victorian. 1 circuit running across all upstairs room sockets. Electrician came in killed the old circuit, wired up new and left unconnected as I was having the rooms plastered and decorated. I now need him back to connect to unit and attach socket facias (What I believe is called the 2nd fix) .

The problem is he has gone AWOL. His phone is dead to the world and I have no other means of contacting him. I have reached out to other electricians and none will touch it as they didn't do the 1st bit.

What are my options...family is moving in, in 6 days and I have no power to sockets upstairs.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Whats all this about cash in hand. Whilst its morally wrong, and illegal to do so, to avoid paying tax, and I've never done it myself, it happens from time to time.

I’m off the opinion its only illegal to evade paying tax.....avoiding it is the game

People who are cash rich don't need to pay tax.
