As part of our annual household safety check I have to provide a certificate proving all of the electrics are safe. This cost £150 to be carried out although once you get the certificate it lasts 10 years or so I believe.
Unfortunately the electrician has said that under the latest regs which came out in January my fuse box needs replaced with a metal one. ( the house is only 10 years old!).
Cost will be £450! You could have knocked me down with a feather.
Anybody else had experience of this? It is money I can ill afford to come out of my fostering income.
