Hi
I recently employed a building company to do a refurbishment of a small flat that I let out. As part of the refurb I asked them to fit a 17th Edition Consumer Unit in the let flat, as he stated that his electrician was a "member" of NICEIC, although he stated he could not supply me with a landlords electrical certificate, and we agreed that I would do that independently. I also got him to fit a 17th Edition CU in my own home as well.
He has now submitted his invoice & I (possibly in ignorance) asked him for the NICEIC certification of the new installations but he stated he could not supply these as they were not able to certify their own work.
I'm a little confused, have a misinterpreted what being a "member" of NICEIC entails, i.e., are their "members" & "practising members" of NICEIC if you like.
Little confused at the moment, I'm sure everything is safe etc but reluctant to let tenants move into the let flat if I don't have the new installation certified.
thanks in advance
