Not a scam member???????????

[sedgy34]

Just found this on a building notice form (shropshire council)



DIY electrics + £180.00 + VAT on inspection charge for all above categories, where relevant except
10 and 11 (no additional charge) and Regularisations (+ £225 - no VAT) - DIY electrics means
electrics carried out by someone that is not a member of a recognised electrical body

A REWIRE IS £240+ VAT TO BE PASSED OFF

Hi Sedgy34

sounds like someone is branching out. Meeting market demand ...... Arghhhh

320 with our local LABC and 160 if you can show you're competent to install and test.

I wonder how many calls they get each month? Not many

 

[sedgy34]

either way money is being made from authoritys, the installer is juggling cost to
1, get the job
2,get competitive prices for materials
3,break his balls to do the work in a time scale for it to pay

If and only if they are going to get Part P to actually work, these Councils and scam organisations need to invest a percentage of our hard earned annual fees and notification fees to employ inspectors with "teeth" to sort out all the cowboys.

DIY electrics and Part P; those two don't work together. I'm not P as on books so don't fully agree with it but it makes it hard for those who are to earn your crust. And I'm not going to start on Electrical Trainee. Should all 'competent persons' be badged and only those be allowed to buy, fit, test and submit building reg apps?
