NICEIC Insurance Backed Warranty covers work undertaken by
contractors registered to the NICEIC Domestic Installer Scheme that is
notifiable to Building Control. The purpose of the Warranty is to
protect consumers should any work be found not to comply with the
Building Regulations under circumstances where the contractor is no
longer in business to undertake the necessary remedial work.
The financial limit placed on the remedial work is £25,000 in
respect of any one installation per period of insurance and the
warranty is valid for a period of six years from the date of completion
of the original work.
A:Since the 1
st January 2005
all electrical work in dwellings (houses) has needed to comply with the Building Regulations electrical
requirements known as Part P. Plus they must be carried out by persons who are competent to do the
work. The best option for you is to find an electrician who can self certify their own work through a
Competent Person Scheme.
