Have been invited to quote for work in a church and associated church rooms. Nothing major I think, but was wondering if there is anything to watch out for when doing electrical work in a church. I know you need a 'faculty' from the parish council before drilling holes in stone walls in a church, but are there any other issues I should be aware of?
 
Me and my old boss did a massive church by ourselves. It was the first job i went to on my first day so it was a bit of a shock to say the least. It had been derelict for over 10 years with squaters/druggies/killings and multiple fires taking place in that time.

As it was to be privately owned as a 'New age church' there was no need for FP etc but it was a MASSIVE pain the arse! 10x 4grand chandeliers up in main church roof.Learned a lot though so it's all good.
