[QUOTE="Doc Hudson, post: 292528, member: 1607"] Do you mean you went to the company that had undertaken the tests to obtain a copy, why didn't the customer have a copy and did you complain to the company directly? They certainly look like someone copying figures from elsewhere and not understanding what they are writing. Any test sheet issued by any company from whatever contractor body means nothing if there is no name and signature of the person obtaining the test results. They carry as much value as an unsigned cheque. Have you asked the client to issue a complaint to the NICEIC against the company? As has already been mentioned, comments about quantities of poor workmanship by NICEIC contractors is often due to percentages of contractors out there, not specifically that NICEIC are any worse than the other contractor bodies. It is quite probable that more Ford cars are involved in accidents than a lot of other makes, not because Ford are dangerous, just that statistically there are a lot of them. I suspect the percentages of good, average and poor electricians is quite similar across all approved contractor schemes. Cost cutting and reducing company budgets due to the economy is probably another key factor that influences how well some contractors do their work. Doc H. [/QUOTE]
