Dont see how they could ever fully fix the issues that are faced with DIY and incompetent lazy work. Obviously the powers that be will come up with another great idea which will cost us even more money while allowing cowboy bill to continue regardless.

I need to see this post when I am sober which at the moment I am not.

What I would say is there is no way any building control would accept a pir for a new build.

I will give a sober answer tommoro

As said in an earlier post you have also got registered sparks doing work not complying with current regs ie putting consumer units with a 30mA Rcd as main switch so whats the point of part p anyway.Batty

While GH is sobering up ...

Bats - doesn't the consumer have some sort of safety net if something detrimental happened due to a spark's incompetence/negligence, from the scam provider though???

yes, they have the option to take out a warranty with scam provider which will cover them for 6 (i think) years.

im supposed to inform anyone i do any part p work for (regardless of cost i think), there is a warranty option available for them. i have some PDF 'adverts', but unless Elecsa make an effort to send me some official info i can give to customer, then there not going to get many customer taking a warranty

its on the website,,,,,in the members area,,,,and its free

read it carefully and you will laugh on what it covers.....

With my provider we can either give the warranty or give the option to buy it. I take the first option as it seems a lot less paperwork and I prefer to give it. I think it costs me about

I'm a Sparks not a warranty insurance salesman. And I don't think ELECSA are too bothered either TBH .

So what does it cover? If the actual wire 'goes bad' in the wall? Or if they arn't inspecting you properly and you are not complying with the regs?

i think its aimed more at if something installed correctly goes wrong

I quote

component failure or breakdown unless directly and solely attributableto the installation

 

[Andy™]

basically, unless its not installed to regs... so getting back to 'aimed more at if something installed correctly goes wrong'

My point really was if it's installed properly in the first place it doesn't guarentee the customer anything!

If ELECSA are confident in their members ability there won't be a claim!
