[QUOTE="binky, post: 406663, member: 490"] those available at short notice....... Under Part P / building regs, home owners can be fined up to £5k for not registering works / using suitably registered trades - I've never seen a case of this. As stated above, no-one should offer a service unless fully trained. I can decide to be a plumber tomorrow and go strangle pipes, a rediculous situation. I don't actually understand how this is viable under Trading Standrds.To me this is the major failure of Part P and all the registration schemes in place for any trade. Given this scenario, it would help improve customer faith in tradesmen, and they may appreciate that they will get a good job, and be ore willing to pay for works. As for Bob from down the pub - you'll never stop that! Basically shemes or not, it's mostly about ownership of the work. When we issue certs etc etc we are declaring ownership of the work. In theory that drives standards up. [/QUOTE]
