What are my options? We had a massive rewiring done to a shopfront done, paid $9K for it. I have the receipt, his old electrical licence number.
We demanded a Electrical Safety Compliance Certificate, however, he had legal issues himself that dragged on for about 1 year. We found out recently his company was in liquidation and is about to be closed down. He no longer licensed/was struck off the the electrical register list.
So I called the Electrical Department of NSW...scarily enough I have very few options. They offered that I get a Registered Electrical Contractor to inspect and get a compliance certificate based on his old work, which in essence, I've called about 10 and none would accept this kind of work as they said they'd be taking on someone else's stuff ups if there was any issues. The only way they would touch this is basically strip out the my old sparky's work and redo everything which would again cost me heaps....
My main worry is that this will void my building insurance.
Any suggestions on a cheaper but legal option? Thanks.
