  • Kitchen refurbishment electrical work

    Daryl responded to my job post very quickly came to quote and I booked him in to do the work on very short notice. The work he did when here with my builder was very good, he is skilled at his job. However, he left site without speaking to me (I was in the next room) and updating me on the progress of his work. He left with the cooker switch not completed, two blanking plates (or switches) not installed, and told my builder that a set of electrics was dead where he needed to plaster. I had to go out and purchase and fit blanking plates as I was not happy a live socket was left open, the other socket my builder started to plaster and it blew the electrics. When I tried to get him to come back, as he had not contacted my, only for payment it took a while for him to come back and finish the cooker socket and hang the kitchen lights.
    I understand that perhaps not everything could be completed, or that he was away when I needed him to complete his work. However, I am irritated at his communication as to what was done on the day, leaving my builder to relay the information and I had to hassle him to come back to complete the job.
    Please work on communicating with the customer, as it can avoid a lot of stress and misunderstandings.
