NICEIC Certification Scheme Todays find from a so called NICEIC Approved Contractor

[uksparks]

Hi,

The sister in law owns a beauty salon, she moved into it 3 and a half years ago, and when she did, it was gutted to 4 walls and rewired from the ground up.

Take a look at these photos, the owner of the building got his so called Electrician mates in to rewire the place when it was done. I am going to be doing a few bits next week, so just thought id scope the place out.

This is what I found anyway... nice isn't it! Oh there's an NICEIC AC sticker on the front that was filled in at the time.

One of the main light circuits was also non RCD protected...

and your saying that this was installed 3 odd years ago?

 

[uksparks]

Yep indeed I do, I actually saw them doing some of it when I popped in. It used to be a post office, it had a new floor, all new partition walls, taken back to brick. The person who owned the building insisted his mates did it.

You can see on the label it says 27/09/10

I can probably even dig you out some photos of them doing it.

The cobwebs, the place is very clean and tidy, I guess it's got spiders in there because there's huge holes on the front!

Google NICEIC and it comes up with...
"NICEIC, the home of contracting excellence - NICEIC"

I've PMed NICEIC Engineer a link to this thread requesting his comments...

Do you actually know that they are an approved contractor?...

Or just that it has a red sticker on?...

Judgeing by those pics he may have actually been an air conditioning guy

Well quite!

My local CEF sells red NICEIC stickers!

 

[Octopus]

I,m going to speculate that the red sticker was on the board where it was first installed

Is it possible the spider is NICEIC registered?
