Risk of Electric Shock

“Risk of Electric Shock” warned the bright yellow sign standing just inside the door of our new house.  Looks like the electrician was busy at work today.

“Hello”, we called out as we carefully walked inside, “we are the new owners”.  We found the pleasant young electrician in the bathroom, wiring up the heated towel rail.  He pointed out the intricacies of the treble light fitting in the ceiling, incorporating a heat lamp and fan too.  The shower walls had been installed, there was now a mirror above the vanity unit, which was still waiting for the hand basin and taps.  And most importantly, the plumber has yet to install the toilet.

There has been a lot of progress since our last visit when the painters were there, and we were told that they had been working over the weekend to finish the job.  The kitchen cabinet units have now been installed, with spaces left for the fridge, the new stove and dishwasher.

And in the garage, the ceiling storage space with the drop-down ladder was ready and waiting for the electrician to climb up and install the light fitting.

Everything seems to be going according to plan, so it won’t be long now, we hope.
