We've had our house rewired and the electrician has now finished what he terms 'final fix', however there are still massive holes around the plug sockets. Is this his responsibility?

Does the written quote you have from the electrician and the works schedule state "all making good will be undertaken"? and was this agreed with the electrician? If not then you have probably not been charged for making the plaster good after chasing in the backboxes?

This is a grey area, it happens because the plasterer has not cleaned out the socket box while the plaster is wet. If it was agreed at the beginning, then yes, if not, then it will be an extra for the electrician (if he wants to do it) or a small job for a plasterer or even a diy project.

ESS is right on this one.What does the quote say? Some electricians have somebody to make good for them,some dont.If he hasnt invoiced you for this then im afraid its down to you to fill these holes.

i always make good myself, but that is my choice, you should of spoken and agreed with the electrician if you would require carry him to replaster areas that needed to be done .

Always a talking point this one. Im a plasterer and often get called by un-happy customers after the sparks have been in. Like some of the above trades have said... was it agreed in the quote or did you expect them to make good? Most sparks i know will patch up as best as possible but some just dont. Patching the chases and repairing round boxes is not easy if you are trying to get a perfect finish.. e.g as if the work was never done.
