[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 394609, member: 6969"] Actually I WOULD. There are plenty of self builders building all or part of ther houses themselves. Would it worry you that I am doing a lot of the building of my new house. I dug the foundations myself on my digger I bought from ebay (no training had never driven a digger before) I will be tiling the roof once the builders have built the basic shell working from my own scaffold that I bought and erected myself. I will be doing all the carpentry (yes you guessed, no formal training) I will be doing all the plumbing (some informal training from my dad) which includes LPG gas to the kitchen hob. Yes absolutely shocking, it should not be allowed. You are trying to prove how dangerous DIY is, by pointing to a rise in electrical fires since Part P came into force (which should have stopped a lot of DIY electrical work) It couldn't be anything to do with a new breed of "part P qualified" 5 week course "electricians" entering the market from that time could it? By the way I am still looking for any data that compares electrical fires or injuries since 2006 comparing England with Scotland or NI [/QUOTE]
