Under stairs refurb

[23vc]

Knocked out brick/block pantry walls, low voltage led lighting, plastering, bespoke cupboards and shelving, bit of self levelling and floor tiling. This was a few years ago, just never got round to posting pics. Mrs happy with it.

Old walls knocked out. (CU moved by sparky)…

Understairs boarded, walls battened, stair squeaks fixed while I had the chance…

Boarded, 12v LEDs under stairs …

More 12V run in for backlit floating shelves…

Bit of trowelwork…

Floor channels where old walls were, blackjacked and concreted…

Floor tiled (plus a bit of levelling) along with rest of hallway which I also reskimmed…

Finished with fitted cupboards and floating shelves. Chuffed with how it turned out…

The sparky who fitted the CU needs to read up about IP ratings and use of grommets

Top entry cables with no gland/grommits? Yeah. Although it’s nowhere near any feasible source of water so I’ll lose no sleep

Proximity to water is irrelevant - surprised you are not interested in this .

Just a pxss poor reflection of the ability of the person who fitted it

You’re gonna have to help me out here. Risk of cables fouling the metal box without a grommet? Do let me know if I’m still wrong so I can keep guessing

You get the muppet back to make good and if that’s what we can see outside what’s it like inside

Did you get any certificates?

Excellent, thanks. I’ll call him tomorrow and not give him a clue what the issue is.
