Thank you. Was hoping to keep expenses down but looks like it needs doing.You have what appears to be a bonding cable at the bottom pipe.
The size needs to be confirmed as adequate,the bond needs to be made before any intersection,yours is in the wrong position,also the "do not remove" warning tag is all but destroyed
Employ a sparks to put it right

The old 'disapears under the floorboards' cable.While the spark is there they can check to see if its actually connected to anything at the other end as well..
So by that Archy I’m assuming that the tubing is being used for a raceway for the wiresThe old 'disapears under the floorboards' cable.
Give it a few pulls and the end pops out

Thank you. I have someone coming to give me a quote tomorrow, so I am happy for some comparison quotes. It's not just this, I need a safety switch for a cooker hood the shower isolation cord doesn't work, the extractor fan in the bathroom doesn't work and the ceiling light in the lounge is looseI don't deal with domestic works, although I am qualified to do so.
however I do know 2 different competent domestic (part p) electricians that could sort this out for you.
they are both based in tamworth, so not far from you.
they are both time served, professional electricians who I call on for any works that fall out of my preferred line of work.
if you are not able to find someone willing to help on the forum, feel free to ask for there contact details.

Apart from that the house is great! Think I may need to marry an electrician, it would be cheaper in the long run...
Lol.yes please. For the quotes. Not the affair. I'm really busy at the momentNot ready for marriage, could manage a quick affair maybe?
