While not in any way condoning the activities of Terence Lewis the unregistered and incompetent gasfitter, I think the programme made at least two errors re Part P:
- saying that *prior* notice to the council was required if work in kitchen or bathroom was carried out by a non-Part P contractor. AIUI the work can be done with a retrospective application for regularisation, in common with all Building Regs applications
- saying that work in the bathroom could only be done by Part P contractors, when the work in question - replacement of a fan - would have been covered by "like for like replacement"
Incidentally, I noted the fan over the bath was IP24.
