The builder still has other work to carry out but needless to say my friends want him out. Are they obliged for him to complete the work or can they get rid of him without any recourse?
Is point 1 a legal requirement or is it just good practice? Just wondering if my friends have any legal grounds to recover the costs of getting it done properly.
Hi,
I'm after some advice for some friends of mine. They have had a new boiler and radiators fitted and some of the work done doesn't look right to me (although I'm no expert! :lol: ).
First is that the plumber has used plastic pipes with some of the existing copper pipes that were there...
Ok thanks, I'll have a look. The kitchen was damp proofed some years ago but I guess it could have returned.
What I'm having trouble understanding is why the kitchen works and it's the living room/hallway that keeps tripping?
I'm going to try and leave the kitchen switch down and flip the...
That's what I thought so I unplugged the outdoor light which is on the living room/hallway circuit but it still trips, even when EVERYTHING is unplugged on the circuit. I have a feed which goes to the garage but that's on a separate switch and I've switched it off from the mains in the garage to...
Is this something I can do myself with the right equipment? I don't mind calling in an electrician but I'd like to diagnose as much as I can myself (with the help of the forum) so it doesn't cost me the earth!
No work carried out recently although I did have the exact same problem this time last year. In the end, I just waited a few days before flipping the switch back up and it was fine ever since. I could do the same this time but I'd like to know what's causing it as there's clearly a problem.
Thanks for the reply, I've attached a couple of images of the consumer unit. "Kitchen Sock" is the kitchen sockets which are fine and "Down Sock" next to it on the right is the living room/hallway which keeps tripping. Let me know if you need any further info.
Hi, I'm having an issue with the electrics tripping and need some help diagnosing the problem. The current setup has the lights and power sockets for the different rooms on individual switches on the consumer unit.
Last Sunday evening the electrics in my living room/hallway and kitchen...
Well, I thought I'd update this thread since I got some useful help from here.
After considering the Ryobi kit and my budget, I decided I wanted to spend a little extra and get something more 'pro' even though I'm not. :lol:
I compared the Milwaukee HD18PD and C18ID with the Makita...
Just checked the Amazon deal it's a combi drill and a drill driver. Without sounding thick, can't the combi drill do what the drill driver and more? Also it only comes with NiCd batteries.
I've been researching all weekend and need to buy something before I drive myself mad!!
I've had a...
I'm prepared to spend more if it means better realibility and performance.
I've read good things about the Bosch 10.8v range, I can get the drill driver and impact driver for £160 and pick up a Bosch GBH 2-18RE for £90 so £250 all in. That would cover drilling into concrete/masonary/wood and...
