Please review my electrician's work

[laike]

Hi guys, could you please take a moment to review the electrician's work on my flat and leave a comment as to its quality.

Switches and sockets were placed in various strange positions without my agreement. He has moved them where required but they're still not 100% and are not centered and measured properly on the walls.

We had agreed that all wires would be chased into the brickwork inside plastic conduit. I am disappointed to see so much raw cable buried within the plaster without conduit.

Thanks for your input,

Did you specify and agree to pay for plastic conduit drops as your specification?
Nowt wrong with going beyond regs as long as you get what you agree.
Not much point in asking someone to fix something when they had a chance and access to do it right the first time because to them this might be a good job.
Change the locks asap.

doubt it would`v made any difference....ther`l be tons of faults on that crap anyway...
in fact it would fail visual...so you wouldn`t even bother testing it....

I think even a Romanian spark would do a better Job...

That, to me, is criminal and the person doing the work should be charged with fraud because they are claiming to be something they are clearly not....COMPETENT!!

Define competent. There’s a very fine line to incompetent.
