Customer ripped off by electrician

[L-E_Fault]

I was working on this house and I noticed a socket sticking off the wall by about 15mm. The customer told me she had the electrician round to do some work I asked "why the socket is sticking out?" she told me thats the best he could do it wont go back any further in other words he couldn't be bothered to chase the brick back.

She told me he has also changed the CCU, changed the sockets and switches, and put power to the garage.

"Was he part P?" I asked

"Part what????" she replied

"Did he leave any paperwork" I asked

"No, for what?" she replied

As you can see from the photos you can't open the door on the CCU.

To much copper on show at the back of sockets and switches.

In one of the sockets he had ragged the cable through the box leaving it bare.

All this for the bargain price of

He came recommended by the plumber. The customer wanted a complete rewire but the sparks said she didn't need one, not that he did any testing to find out. It probably would of cost 10 grand with that muppet.
