Ha! When I say 'competent' I mean I can tackle most stuff but always seek advice beforehand if unsure, particularly electrics outside of part P control. We all know that there are many people out there trying to squeeze extras from their insurers but I really cant see anything about my post that suggests this. Quite frankly, I don't give a monkeys about the money, I just want my family to stay alive.
What do you think may have happened had I not been able to do diy, not spotted this and fully trusted the insurers contractors that all was well?
If you want your family to stay alive, you shouldn't be doing anything without out the sufficient knowledge and test equipment to check your work, plenty of DIYERs
Leave CPC's of metal fittings
