Handyman and Electrical Work

[Scotty_Ian]

I recently started up my own handyman business and wondered what I am allowed to do in terms of electrical work in customers houses. The sort of thing I am talking about is changing mains sockets, light fittings, light switches, extending existing ring mains... I know that for work in bathrooms and kitchens the work has to be checked out by a registered sparky. I feel I am pretty competant and safe when it comes to electrical work, having been an electrical / electronic tradesman in the forces and done loads of DIY work on my own house.

Would I have to provide a Minor Works Certificate for any electrical work I did?

Thanks for any info.

with these devolved assemblies, I can't help thinking that they keep coming up with this CARP, purely to keep themselves in the papers and busy .....................

I don't even know what a devolved assembly is. Is it a group of people who are neither male or female, in other words don't really exist?

and frankly, anyone who thinks Nicola looks good in a short skirt and high heels...

thinks exactly the same as I do!

Good old Nicola. "Non Binary Gender" eh? What is the world coming to, the woman is a raving lunatic.

Aye ..... she's also a raving minger. The last time I saw a face like hers it was in a butcher's window with apples stuffed in its mouth.

Its the Welsh Assembly, the Northern Ireland Assembly or the Scottish Assembly ................ full of "representatives" elected by the fine people of those areas.

We, the English are not allowed a devolved assembly .................... go figure.

They are talking shops for the regions with all the employees and representatives ............... over heads etc. More Civil Servants .....

Thats why Scotland will have, from April this year, 5 rates of tax, whilst the remainder of the UK will have 3 ................. this will create more jobs in Scotland .................... for Civil Servants...

The vision of Sturgeon in a short skirt and high heels is as nauseating as the vision of Mhairi Black in a basque and thigh-length boots. * vomits profusely *

Wee Mhari is not only a clam-kisser, a scruffy wee midden and a complete and utter boot, she's also an unrefined moron as is evidenced by the blog posts she made before she became an MP. She's more representative of the Scottish Nationalist Party than she is of Scotland.

Hehe love it. The thing is, I always here Scots saying the very same thing about these SNP folks. I particularly dislike that big fat bugger who is always spouting rubbish in the house, can't remember his name. Most people north of the border seem to think they are all (The SNP) mental cases, so how do they keep getting so many votes?

Aye, a wee rug- muncher...
My wife asked me where I wanted to be buried...
apparently, face down in Cheryl Cole's fa**y was not the response she expected...

Oh! Just a minute...looking at the thread title...are we possibly a wee bit off topic now?

"Topic"...

and for those who remember that...
