Discuss Rogue Traders on now in the Electricians Chat - Off Topic Chat area at ElectriciansForums.net

60 quid, well all we need now is one telling them that they should be paying no more than a grand for a 4 bed detached re-wire :rolleyes: they want to get a quote in london for the change of an existing fitting already protected by rcd just a simple like for like quote came out at £195 :eek: i would have got the bus down from leeds and done it myself for that :)
 
oh and the 195 without mentioning the name of a very well know and respected company was real i had it forwarded to me from someone wanting to know what sort of a price it was :(
 
Your missing the point guys, he should of had the book thrown at him by the authorities, he is a dangerous practicing electrician without part-p and no 16 or 17th edition

In fairness, you can't have Part P. You can only comply with it if you are within England or Wales.

It is a Building Regulation and not a qualification.

Just to confirm that wasn't meant to undermine Jason.S at all. I just think he was being a too kind to the plonker

No, not being kind.

Just being observant and putting my thoughts across.
