    Guidance for PAT testing in Belfast

    I am a business owner from Belfast and I would like to have some PAT testing and any other appropriate electrical safety inspections performed in my factory. Do the same rules apply to Northern Ireland as to the rest of the UK regarding the likes of PAT and EICR tests/certificates? If not, what are the differences here that I should consider? As a business owner in Northern Ireland, are there any electrical safety tests in particular that I am legally obligated to have undertaken?

    Need advice on incorrectly installed retaining wall and patio

    Sloped garden towards the house, landscaper excavated and built some retaining walls using breeze blocks at the boundary also act as planters. There is a void about a block width between the walls and the fence, is that wrong? Worried about soil erosion and water flowing into the gap and fallen fence. What's the correct way? Patio is built with a fall towards the house, because of previous mistakes, original plan was a channel drain between the top and bottom garden, but now it is going to where the patio meets the house, but between the channel drain and the house there will also be decorative gravel because of uneven facing of the house, I am worried about pooling water in the gravel area, what's best way to rectify? Will self leveling under the gravel work?
