I think I deserve to give myself a pat on the back. Yes?

Hey all. How is everyone's rainy Sunday afternoon?

I thought I'd pop by and let you all know that as of yesterday I completed my first rewire of a 4 bed property. It took just over 2 weeks to complete. The property was lived in and involved moving a lot of furniture to other rooms, covering stuff with dust sheets, lifting up carpets etc etc.

It was a grade A ball ache but I got there in the end and the customer is happy with my work and said I will be recommended to anyone that asks for a Spark.

I feel that the time I took was reasonable but I did lose a day due to a family issue that needed attention. This job has helped my confidence and *fingers crossed* there have been no problems and on leaving everyting was good and in working order.

Hopefully, the next one will be done quicker but if there's anything I have learnt from all this, make sure the property is empty or get them to move out

*Insert pat on back here*

Dampside. Ha ha, like it. Well I always have a laugh at the wetheads at college and wind them up saying that we are at the top of the food chain or the SAS of the trades. Thing is I think Electrummer sounds better than Plumbtrician.

plumbtrician sounds naff mate....their name should always be second...lol...

I am going back in October but not to fix a fault. He's having an extension built and wants me to do it. Good work and honesty gets you repeat work. That's my motto anyway.

Got it. "What do you do mate?"

"I'm an Electrician but I also do Plumbing work as well just to confirm what I already know".

"And what's that mate?"

"That Electrical work is more complex and will always be when compared to the job of. . . . . .a Plumber"
