Cant a fused spur(13amp) be used on the cable coming from the house making a sub circuit?

Hi, I need some more sockets in the garge, as I have only one. A local sparky has quoted me and it seems steep as he said there is alot of work involved. I didn't think so, but am not too sure. Basically I have one cable coming from the house into the garage, into a double socket, then onto a...

Ok I will speak to him. Thanks

He can self certify, do I need to get a cert for the hot tub work he did? I will have fun, hopefilly, if we dont get a drought order, (the council have put in for one)

1) Yes the garage is connected to the house. 2) It is part of the ring, IE not a spur from the downstairs ring.

The arage is protected by an RCD, but not a "Garage" RCD, it is part of the downstairs ring.

I have just had a sparky in to put power into the garden for a hot tub we are getting. I asked about installing some sockets onto the side of our decking at a later date. He told me that would be no problem, waterproof sockets etc... Thing is he said he would probably come off the ring...

Do you know what would be involved in having the pipes changed, and how much would I expect to pay, maybe saniflow is the answer, are they noisy?

OK we now want to move it, can I tap into the shower/en-suite sink waste, or do I need to have the pipes changed?

The drain is by the existing sink. I have just had a thought, in the living room, there is a false chimney breast, incorporating the waste pipe for the en suite bathroom. In there is the waste pipe for the shower and basin. Could I run awaste pipe through the house wall, along 10 ft, back into...

I have attached a drawing

Hi, I am having my dining room knocked into the kitchen tomorrow to make a bigger kitchen. Thing is we would like to relocate the kitchen sink into what will be the new side of the kitchen, (the dining room at the moment). It is on the opposite wall about 12 feet away, we have a block and...

No, they said they can do nothing about it as it is a single tree (HUGE conifer) rather than a hedge, row of trees etc. The grass is dead, they did get it lopped, but from the top, it still hangs over out fence by 8ft + and thats what seems to have killes the grass.

Well well, got a letter from the council today, they made a mistake, "Permitted development righta were not removed by condition" "No further action is necessary" "Sorry for the inconvenience" Oh well thats that. We were right after all. :lol:

I have to submit drawings aswell. I have no idea how to even start.....

Well I have to submit the planning permission by the end of the week otherwise the council will enforce something. I have asked others on this estate and nobody (apart from one who had ro have drains, pipes etc moved) filled in planning pernission forms. The reason the council are not happy eoth...

Well I found out today (offices were open) that in this area you need planning permission for any and everything. This was introduced in 1987 (6 years before the house was built!!!) The council confirmed this today saying that the right to go ahead in this area was removed unless planning...

Well after a drunken debate, I now know who it is, how do I piosin it???

Hi, I have just received a letter from my local council (Swale) saying it has been brought to their attention that we have put up a conservatory and decking in our garden (I know who reported this, that will be for later). I enquired last year if we need planning permission or not, and I...

Thanks, I thought of that just after posting this. I went and had a look, and the bricks are 75mm deep with the sill 90mm deep. therefore there is only a 15mm overhang. Where I have pointed the sill onto the top of the bricks, I have been a little careless and some of the mortar goes into the...
