Builder safety worry

[The Ghost]

I have to say, when you saw the builder was struggling with the electrics this should have rung alarm bells. I would say to all such people in your position use your common sense and get someone who is registered with a CPS provider. i.e. a proper electrician.

get someone who is registered with a CPS provider. i.e. a proper electrician.

or a Electrical Trainee with little or no practical experience.

As said above, you need this system checking fully. It needs every cable checking fully, whether they are buried/under floors or whatever. That light switch under the floorboards is unbelievable.

If you don't get this checked fully you are putting lives at risk. Can't understand how it has got to this stage if you and the builder knew he wasn't up to the job of doing the electrics part way through the job.

Builders? Don't get me fkn started!
Off topic, I know...how about a new thread?

I'm thinking of asking a painter I know to replace my roof, can anyone foresee any potential problems?

 

[pirate]

No, if he is a half-decent tradesman you may well be on a winner! And ask your roofer if he is any good at painting...chances are he will be ok at that too!
But ask either to run a new circuit for you?
It's all about expertise...

I used to work for a builder, I only found out recently he threw asbestos sheets into the foundations... I’m glad I don’t work for any builders now.
