GF quoted £540 for this work. After the invoice of 24/7 I wrote to GF about the price, but paid £540 on 24/8. In an email of 26/6 GF stated that "There will be a Part P certificate issued". 3 weeks after paying I reminded GF about the certificate and again after 5 weeks. I have heard nothing. It is now 6 weeks. Without the Part P certificate I cannot be sure the work has been done to the required standard; I understand that by law I must be able to prove that electrical installation work meets Part P; and I consider failure to provide the certificate to be a breach of contract.

Missing evidence lowers the score because we can't check it. It doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Claiming a profile never changes the score. Evidence context, not a guarantee of workmanship.

Electrical work in homes in England & Wales should be done by a registered competent person who can self-certify it meets the Part P safety rules. Check they're on the official register.
Check the electrical registerIn England and Wales, notifiable electrical work (new circuits, a consumer unit, anything in a bathroom or kitchen) must by law be signed off under Part P of the Building Regulations. Confirm they will handle that.
Prefer an electrician registered with a government-approved competent-person scheme (NICEIC, NAPIT or ELECSA) so they can self-certify the work meets the wiring regulations.
Insist on the Electrical Installation Certificate (or Minor Works Certificate) when the job is done. It is your proof the work is safe and compliant, and you will need it if you ever sell.
