[buzzlightyear]

what he betting she will tell to move it down .but you did not answer
my question .

 

[stidge]

I’ll bet she does bxxxh ! Sorry it’s a new kitchen , tall cupboard in old cottage ( pity it’s not a coffin !

As it's not a new build then the work carried out must no more unsatisfactory in relationship to the requirements than before the work was started.....Basically if it was at the height the customer now wants it before then there's is no reason not to put it back at that height other than personal preference.

 

[buzzlightyear]

what a guess.

If she's nasty to dogs then its luck that any lights work to see where the CU is ... I didn't really say that did I? That was just a thought really, I didn't write it down or anything

 

[stidge]

Ok ! Thanks for all replies , it’s a sub main cheers

If she wants it moved make sure the price is agreed before you touch it.

Why does she want it moved? 500mm isn't really worth it IMHO

 

[buzzlightyear]

if its in and you do not want to move it. tell her there are two hopes bob hope and no hope.

Is there a valid reason for raising it up such as a shelf or is she just being a tawt ? There are a surprising number of those everywhere.

I know the OP asked for required regulations and I gave it to him, the regulation I mean.
