Hi,
Am a bit lost... Had a new kitchen done and cut a corner or two I'm afraid to say and hence am now trying to make it right. The kitchen was a like for like and all it needed was two new plugs so I just let my builder add them without getting a spark or building regs approval. I now realise that this could cause me problems with insurance and when trying to sell the place down the line so want to know what I need to do to make it all good. I had one spark round and he seemed a bit neg but then had another one round and he was a bit more positive. He seemed to think that by replacing the board (it's very old hence not RCD) and running some tests he could give me some sort of certificate that says all the electrics in the house are a ok from that point onwards... does this sound correct? I might have got some of the terms wrong but you folks prob know what I'm talking about!
Cheers
Ben
