Hello,
Long story short. We employed a builder to project manage an extension. An electrician was contracted by the builder to totally rewire the house and to provide new electrics for the extension.
It transpires that the builder has not paid the electrician for his work even though we have been invoiced by the builder and have paid the amount. The sparky has not completed the final tests due to not being paid and as a result we have no certificate for electrics in the house.
We have nothing personal against the sparky as he is a lot of money out of pocket and the builder has not paid him. By the same token, we cannot get the house signed off by building control without the certificate. The contact is with the builder as is the electricians but the builder is not being helpful.
Any suggestions / help much appreciated
