Towel rail in bathroom

wightmoves · Feb 20, 2011

I have recently had a towel rail fitted in a bathroom which I want removed. Can I legally remove the towel rail myself as I am not qualified or must this be done by a Part P electrician? I know I can't fit a towel rail but not sure about removal.
Many thanks

Hi yes it is but want to remove all the wiring from the junction box in the loft.

if it was recently installed, you should have a cert. from the sparks who installed it. might be a good idea to contact him, as you would be " interfering" with the job for which he has signed his name

I would remove it yourself. Isolate and test. remove cables etc and you should be fine . If the public are forced to call us for everything, we all end up losing in the end !

Long story but is this def legal as at loggerheads with sparky who fitted wrong rails but now refuses to sort the problem out, also refuses to supply cert. as I threatened to remove them.
