i went to price a job today and looked inside the shower cubical i noticed a cable coming from the shower i am no spark but it looked very thin for a shower cable i then followed the cable to see where it went i could not believe it when i found it wired to a plug and plugged in a socket i asked the lady who had fitted this she told me it was a spark she knew i told her to report him to the hse the guy wants shooting has anyone else come across cowboys like this before

howard If you get the job tell her to get a sparky to rewire it before you tile You don't need a shock

 

[howard]

already told her to get a decent spark she was so grateful that i pointed this out to her she gave me the job plus 2 other tiling jobs

the worst thing was the lady was holding her 6 month old baby as i discovered this the thought of what could of happened

ive got hundreds of cowboy stories, one of my favourites is the bloke who fitted a folding seat in a shower, two screws and siliconed onto the tiles , the wimmen woz about 20 stone and fell on her ar*e on first sitting!! or the bloke who when fitting a patterned border on a floor couldnt get the lines to match so painted it in with nail varnish, gave the bottle to the customer with tile paint written on it and told her to paint it in when worn off!!

Well done Howard m8!

What a plum the bloke must be!!!!!

Look on the bright side....the cable going under the shower would have acted as 'under floor' heating as it melted
