Recommendation for a good Electrician


omarsmith

Recommended Posts

We've used Gary Vu for 2 jobs. The first time we were very grateful for his prompt help when our consumer unit kept tripping and we were without electricity. I have no doubt that he is a qualified electrician. On this basis we chose to use him again for a much bigger job over several days. Although his work was OK in the end, he made a couple of mistakes - which, per se, we were fine with. However, he then tried to blame and charge us for putting one of them right and we felt deeply disappointed about that. One of his mistakes also meant we had to fork out for the additional services of a plasterer. For these reasons alone, we would not use him again. Having said that, the end result is that our new lighting looks good and functions as it should.

    • We used Anstey Horne following work done by our neighbours and they were very helpful. Maybe they could provide some guidance? Good luck. https://www.ansteyhorne.co.uk/about/team    
    • Sounds like your neighbour is trying to bully you into  to be compliant and stay quiet.  You really don't have any choice but to contact Southwark regarding building alteration planning permission.  But also try to find your own surveyor asap.  It might cost you now.  But if you don't it could well really get expensive and cause issues with any potential selling in the future.  Don't feel bad about standing up for yourself and your future.....
    • Thank you, he's pretty adamant a party wall agreement isn't needed so no chance of getting plans, he's been very cagey about what's being done. I've asked for the specific clause in the Party Wall Act that suggests he doesn't because I'm pretty worried. Is it just the chimney breasts that would fall under the act? He's insisting the others don't count as party walls.
    • Thanks  for the reminder nellie. Have today received two letters dated February 2024. Heading down to Highshore Road tomorrow to see if there's anything for us. I'm getting obsessive about missing/late arriving bills since having our phone and broadband cut off when we hadn't received (so hadn't paid) a bill from BT that had been posted to us. I now keep a note in my diary of when the various utility bills are expected, and phoning them when I think something is due, invariably they say the bill has been sent out. It shouldn't be so hard.
