Rewire was done about 1 year ago in old (Red & Black) cables, not notified, no certificate.

Something else puzzled me about this thread - the above comment.
Getting hold of enough old colour cable of the right sizes to do a full rewire is no mean feat , it will certainly be more cost and time consuming and its unlikely a couple of chancers will go to the trouble of getting it.
So i would assume no rewire was done at all to be honest , considering all the wiring faults and non-payment issues.
 
This house is one I have just moved into with my kids and misses, agent just took it on and as I was looking he gave it to me to live in and correct anything and everything that is of concern

The situation is that the landlord refused to pay the sparky & gas man so they walked off site and didn't notify/finish anything!
Clearly from what I have seen here no work was carried out at all on the electric side anyway!



Lenny delete the other thread please.
 
In regards to inaccessible CU the gap under the stairs is only 2 foot high and you have to be on your bell to get to the CU, the head and meter is under there as well as the gas mains and meter.

completely stupid place to put the utility supplies if you ask me!
 
I'm not deleting the other thread as members have taken their time to post replies for you in it.

I'll merge the 2 so you have the benefit of both sets of replies.
