I just moved house and the house I moved into has a lot, and I mean a lot, of dodgy DIY.
The kitchen is obviously wired by a DIY man who knew not what best practice was. The gas boiler was almost certainly put in as a DIY job as well; it's not a professional looking installation.
When I was buying the house, the vendor put on his forms sent to my solicitor that no electrical work has been done. He also put that the gas boiler was installed before the regulations. Both these things are obviously not true, but he seems to have got away with it.
I have read on a lot of DIY threads that people who ignore regs come a cropper when they sell the property. This guy hasn't.
So what is the point of Part P ?
