How easy it is to find a "good" master now! Which can and will do its job - but not for long. And it’s good if the fruits of the creativity of such an electrician simply leave the apartment without electricity, but the matter can turn into a fire. 6 main signs of such "specialists" will help to protect yourself. Read on ...
6. Doesn't show documents
Firstly, every electrician must have a permit for electrical safety, and if the group is the second thing, then at least the officially registered "crust" should always be at hand! If it is not there, you can safely drive such a master.
Secondly, you have the right to demand an identity document. No passport - let him show his driver's license! Now there are so many scammers that it is better to protect yourself at the initial stage of preparatory work.
5. No contract with me
If the master does not have a standard contract with him, this means that:
- Most likely, it is not officially registered.
- He does the job poorly, but the contract does not provide, so that later offended customers cannot demand compensation.
- Doesn't know at all that it should be like that - it means low qualification of a “specialist”.
The concluded contract is a guarantor of the opportunity to demand back the money given back or demand to redo work performed poorly.
4. The master frankly does not understand what to do
Such ignorance is very clearly visible: a person stumbles, thinks for a long time, begins to form a thought and cannot continue it. A high-quality, highly qualified master always has several options for solving any problem. He voices them, and then - the customer's choice.
3. Can't name the final price of the order at the very beginning of work
Any private electrician should have a price list according to which he works. It is very convenient - the customer can always double-check the quoted price for services. But if the master got acquainted with the order or saw a malfunction, and does not know how much it will cost to solve the problem, then it is better to contact another, more sensible specialist.
2. The master has no instruments with him
Or they are obviously of disgusting quality. A similar example can be seen from the "specialists" from the housing office. Their set is standard: a light bulb with two wires, a flat screwdriver burnt at the end, a dull knife.
If the volume of work is really large, then you cannot do without a high-quality wall chaser, perforator, drill, construction vacuum cleaner. And at the stage of marking, almost every electrician uses a laser level - a tool that is quite expensive in itself. In this case, the quantity and quality of “little helpers” speaks for itself.
1. The master comes to the object with a fume
A modern electrician is not a man with a fume and three-day stubble, but a specialist who always looks good and often comes to the facility in a car that is far from the latest model. Therefore, you should not follow the lead of stereotypes - working with an electrician "drunk" can lead to serious consequences, up to the fact that the master gets under a life-threatening potential.
