Hi,
My in-laws had a new consumer unit fitted a couple of years ago. They are now about to move house and the estate agent has asked for the installation certificate. Apparently the electrician did not hand one over after completing the work. He is now asking for £300 for this certificate. I know he is completely in the wrong and would like nothing more than to punch his face in. My questions are 1. What should he have handed over in the first place 2. Can he now charge for something he failed to do and 3. How can I find out if he is legitimate. Thanks for reading.
