    Hi everyone,

    My query is just as it says in title. We are building a house and first fix is done. Thing is there doesn't seem to be any wiring for the immersion or central heating? Can anyone help me?

    Simple answer, all wiring should be installed for first fix so far as is practical.
    There is unlikely to be a better opportunity to install wiring ever.

    Simply call contractor , he wont mind the call especially if he forgot. Id be worried if he actually forgot. The heating is vitally important and i would go as far as future-proofing by wiring additional controls then noting their location and maybe covering them over unconnected obviously....best of luck with build.

    I thought that would be obvious. Have you any idea how much easier it is to get cables down a wall before it is plastered/slabbed than after it has been done? :)
