    I rarely get exterior jobs such as summerhouses etc....not sure why...

    Hi all. As per title, I rarely get exterior wiring jobs. Dunno if it's because it is generally like the Arctic up here for half the year or other reasons. I don't price many to be fair, but when I do I rarely ever get them. The win rate is much much less than it is normally for me. I talk...

    Cheap as chips

    So was trawling the Screwfix website checking out 45amp double pole switches for a new shower circuit I first fixed this evening. Seen a marbo effort for £1.55!! Can only imagine this falls apart at the thought of the screw being tightened onto a 10mm cable! Anybody used these before?!
