Wow thats insane, maybe he has to bribe them every time to get them to sign off on his work LOLHope everyone is good...Just got back from seeing a client where i have got the job of running a new circuit for some garden power and wall lights....just asked if she had any other quotes and was told that another sparky who is NICEIC had quoted as well but was £150 more for labour,fair enough but he also quoted £400 for NOTIFYING Building Control...WTF
I tell all customers not miss place them and keep them safe ,if you lose them then I will charge them for a copy for them , is your responsibility.I decided not to charge for this service, for various reasons, one of which was I had previously obtained monies for it.
Certsure used to give them the same friendly advice, in the email contains the certificate. If I had continued, I would of also charged an admin fee, for replacements.I tell all customers not miss place them and keep them safe ,if you lose them then I will charge them for a copy for them , is your responsibility.

Came from local authority through the post when I did them....easily lost. What's the problem?do you hand write your certs?
i wouldnt employ you with attitude like that.
no I dont hand write them all done on a pc neater ,I did once ,my attitude is nothing do with charging for time working on my pc and paper work never had a problem.do you hand write your certs?

They still have to be OK'd and sent to the client from the authority, though.....via post. Therefore paper can be lost.All done online with pdf free copies, dont know how you can charge some1 to just click resend only takes 1min, maybe in not ruthless enough

A builder phoned me a while back and said I hadn't done a part P on a job a good few years back. They were moving house and needed a copy. I found it on the 'past records' so just sent him the registration number....proof and job done. Didn't charge him, by the way.I used to save a copy to my laptop, when I used the Certsure software. If I recall, you could still access the particular certificate (EIC/MW) when using their web site. You could probably copy & paste it, but I'm not sure there's some copyright law infringement going on there.
And as I have to maintain my records on my laptop, backing up etc (if I recall, there's some kind of requirement to maintain certificates), I would make a charge, not withstanding copyright.
