had a visit from the sky installers, have just finished wiring a 4 bed detatched million pound house, against my advice the owner got sky in, they promptly arrived LATE and where i had left two shotgun cabes for him to install the dish he took one look at it and said, nah cant do it there there is a tree in the way it will have to be on the other side of the house, fair enough except there is an unbroken line of very large trees, when i pointed this out to him he said whos the expert here,
his mate then proceeded to explain to me that i weas not a problem as he was going to install the cable across the roof from out of the velux in the loft room, i interjected and advised him that the client did not want any cables visible on the outside of the house, he then told me that the cables going across the roof would not be seen, i did want to look into the back of his van for the invisible cable but knew that i would not be able to see it!
luckily i was prepared for this as i have met this kind of non evolved type before, so i goes up into the loft space to feed the 'proper' cables that i have convinced him to feed up through the eaves vent hole through to my carefully concealed box, on coming back down the 'engineers' had gone, installation complete.
great, sky dish on my aerial pole dish is pointing directly at the pitch of the roof in the general direction of where it should be and the digital aerial is 45 degrees away from where it was when i had it installed(as my insurance prohibits me from putting up such dangerous items)
is there a way to get the terms expert and engineer defined legally.
