    Electricity safety

    Complete and utter mess. Don't pay him for your certificate. Try and get the name of electrician but to be honest this work was not done by an electrician.

    Electricity safety

    I feel genuinely bad for you. I wish I could tell you to get in touch with electricsafe or the electrical safety register and that they would come down hard and prosecute any 'tradesman' with such a low regard for electrical safety. Really do their bit for improving and protecting the...

    Hourly Rate for a Self Employed Electrician?

    I try and earn £120 - 150. Per day. If I'm getting materials then there's 10% on those too. Any one man band still charging £200 per day outside London and working 5-6 days week is doing well.
