    I doubt that very much...

    Why don't you ring and ask them?

    I am open to correction on this, but my understanding is that any electrician is/was permitted to certify their own home. I think that this is/was limited to one installation to make it harder to take the p!ss.

    i need a reci cert done for my house .. any offers?

    Registered electrical contractors are only permitted to certify their own work (except under exceptional circumstances).

    However it is possible to pay the ECSSA or RECI to certify all or part of an installation for you. I am not sure if being a qualified electriccian is a requirement for this. My advice is to phone them and have a chat.
