Paperwork after rewire?

davidwalker2

I would be grateful if the experts here could tell me what paperwork I should expect having just had a new CU and complete rewire of a house.   At the moment I have a certificate from NICEIC but all it states is “Building Regulations Certificate of Completion”, but nothing else.  Should I expect more?  When I last had this done at a different house I was given a list of works completed with test results, but I do not know what is expected now.

    Emailed Certificates without actual signatures are NOT acceptable Andy, you should know that, they are a LEGAL document!

    Why does a legal document require a signature?  The only one I can think of that does is a contract to buy property, which is going to be recorded at the Land Registry.  Many documents aren't signed these days.

    And what makes an EIC a "legal" document anyway?

    All the NICEIC on-line certificates / reports etc can be emailed with electronic signatures. 

    As to the building regs notification from the OP. It should have the relevant certificate number on it even if it hasn't arrived yet.
