Few sockets to move small job

He did a massive job for us and it was extremely professional and that was four years ago, no issues since. Have used him a lot since then for small jobs.

Ed Rich did some work for us and we were very happy indeed. 07824 813 609. I might have got his details from a recommendation here, actually. <br>

Any other recent local recommendations? I need to get a built-in electric oven removed asap, as the gas fitter is coming next week. Thx

majority of "built in" just sit on a shelf, easy to slide out and disconnect yourself, they are not heavy. Just turn the leccy off first

@Exile, I thought I could DIY it, but then I realised that the power cable goes directly into the socket, rather than via a plug. Specialist oven power supplies can be much higher than standard, so I'm a little dubious about tinkering with it. Mind you, it's only a cheapy Ikea oven, so I might spend my Friday night hunting online for the manual...

Exile

it's just on a separate circuit probably, they still run off 240V. Turn the circuit breaker off for the oven or if you can't find that and have enough light turn all the electric off then take the cover off the socket and it will be three wires, same as a plug. Just loosen the terminals and pull the cable out, put cover back on and job done. If you can change a plug you can disconnect a cooker.

The gas fitter would be able to do it too, I should think. Most gas cookers need an electrical connection too - the plumber who put in mine had to fit the cable into the wall.

@Exile, well, I can change a plug, & there's a doctor in the house just in case! @conformable_kate, my gas fitter friend asked for it to be removed before he comes. Am so excited that some time next week I will actually be able to use your lovely Rangemaster!!

@vetski a long wait - I hope you enjoy it!

Another vote for Keith. He managed to solve a potentially disastrous problem we had with our kitchen sockets with minimum fuss. A true pro.
