You can but you have to charge yourself $70 call-out and then bodge the job.

Bummer, we've had some dampness (nothing more) recently so the fire danger is down a bit ... I might go and visit some horses with some Venos and the warm cuppa later, I think they could do with cheering up.

It was the estate agent who told us that. When we were looking round the house he mentioned things that we weren't supposed to do...but if we did it quietly no-one need to know:sneaky:

Where do they get these myths from:unsure:

Or rang the EA every time one went and told him to pay for a sparkie to change them :D

We had a light fixture fall from my son's bedroom ceiling so it was just dangling by a wire. Called our rental agent she told me to just screw it back up.
