Wonder if he has a 24/7 mobile number hehehe! Dooontttt

 

[stevethesparks]

kin hell......he does gas work as well

That link also brings up a photo of some of the workers
EICR's £150 regardless of size of property.

It's pretty shoddy work. I wonder how he's terminated that SWA?

I wouldn't flush mount that socket in that situation, however, it's worth noting that MK do a flush mounting bezel for their Masterseal accessories:

Disgusting workmanship, he is a disgrace to the trade.

Yeah true, but he might be a brilliant business man= he will survive.! And that is the reality.

 

[Deleted member 93172]

If that's the way to survive, then I'm a dead man walking

Crikey, this guy is clearly a picnic short of a picnic. Definitely not the full ticket lol.

 

[bigspark17]

They emailed me back following an eicr enquiryvand stated it was £150 per proerty regardlessof amount of circuits !!!!!!!! Haha.! I fancy saying i have a 3 bed house with 22 ccts and 10 s/heaters lol :/

Incidentally, the finish of his caulking is atrocious

 

[Rpa07]

It wasn't caulking it was no nails!

 

[Wilko]

Aaand - he liked it - just unbelievable !!!

 

[spary]

he'd probably make some money sending that in to YBF

 

[Wilko]

I think I'm reacting to it cause as a lad I worked with my Dad, and if I'd have done this I'd been 'told the error of my ways' for the next month. Or lifetime. Hang on, I think I can hear him now from the other side ...

I see on the firms Materials page, they have both Metal (flush) boxes, and Plastic (surface) pattress. I wonder if scratches his head, and ponders why there's both?
Like to see the vid, them fitting the dry lining boxes :mamazed:

 

[ant_daley]

Cringing watching that, couldn't stop laughing when he measured the drill bit at 4 inches come off it pal

Juts as an aside to that link , I was led to this one ; as you do lol.
I found this interesting.

Mods may want to move this to appropriate area.

 

[Midwest]

I bet JW's neighbours think he cook's some strange things on his barbecue

 

[stevethesparks]

I would also liked to have seen the piano key type wagos, I much prefer this type. I've always wondered about the twisting cable in the push fit types and how they would cope with fault currents.

Funny thing is , I could taste an smell that smoke . Stays with you doesn't it?

It's amazing the load all of those connectors took.
I thought the Wago would go first because of the spring weakening , not the wire breaking.
I was impressed to be honest.
I wonder if he dug to deep into the cable stripping it, or if it had just been worked.

and that is 20 wasted minutes of my life that i can't get back
