One off rewire / Part P

Yea might just get on with it..... /gulp

Why dn't you contact LABC, talk them through YOUR qualifications and do the right thing?

Just do the flipping Job, your more than qualified, which is more than can be said for the bulk of so called part P sparks (who are Electrical Trainee's or kitchen fitters) and do a completion cert. There is nothing to stop your brother calling in a company in about 6 months and asking them to do a full T&I and then you have the NICEIC cert should it be needed...

The Part P rules stopping suitably qualified sparks from working in their or family home is ludicrous.

I tried that with Manchester for a CU change, they were totally not interested, it'll be over £300 to send one of our 'Engineers' out to I&T my work! Goodbye Manchester City Council!.

It's a total joke, isn't it?!?!!

He could do the EICR himself 6 months later.

Good luck with the job, do remember to do an EIC after completion not just the EICR in a few months time.
One point to note is that if you have done the job safely and it is not queried for one year then after that they cannot get it ripped out, might make someone pay for an inspection though!

Agreed with EIC and happy wiring make sure your bro chases out
