Sockets in a cupboard are so much better than an out of reach/sight socket behind a fixed in place appliance. Having renovated a house and being a full time boat builder it’s much easier and better to have them accessible! Great content.
Forgot to say Nick. Put a some CEN rated closed shackle padlocks on your unit burglar bar door, those Master lock ones are lacking. Know through experience, even the keys are flimsy.
I always put the sockets for appliances in kitchens the same as you, 73mm holes away next to it and a double socket for appliances to allow plug tops to remain in place (always moulded)
Totally agree with your comment about sockets in cupboards, I always fit them in sink unit/cupboards. Most of the time I’ll fit a grid switch and fit single sockets for the appliances
I’m a chippy and fit kitchens and i’m with you on fitting sockets in cupboards out the way. Nice to keep the splash backs clear of unnecessary switches.
Hi Nick, great vid as usual mate. On the socket vs fused spur debate, there’s no one size fits all. Each way has pros & cons. It makes me laugh when people make closed statements, you can never make a closed statement. We were always told back when I was in college “closed statements make bad engineers” that’s always stuck with me. As long as it’s safe, compliant and installed to a high standard (which yours always are) then the method is irrelevant. Keep doing you matey, and pay no mind to trivial comments.
In Finland we have no switches or anything for the kitchen appliances. Most of the times the hob extractor fan has a plug and it's hidden behind the fan duct covers. Oven and hob have direct connection.
I always put my switches and isolators in cupboards. Clients seem to like better than on display.
In the past I have got a like a closed front shelf made inside a cupboard and mount all the spurs inside the cupboard then label them what each 1 is for
We never did the chat video, I’ll pop back over 😂😂 thanks for all the help and support Nick since I started, I appreciate it all dude.

He’s always happy to help and show anything we ask 👀 LEGEND
thanks again mate
You're a bit of a legend yourself Jack! Even though I'm on the other side of the world it's great being part of the Bundy "family" group!
@@ForTheBirbs thanks Jim I appreciate that sir ❤️
sockets in cupboards fully in agreement
Appliance slides are good for shifting cookers and washing machines helps to protect new flooring from getting marked up to. There about £15-£20 on amazon.
Love this video style Nick. Thanks for sharing
Bloody awesome Sir Nick! Loved it.
Nice power bank - great make, looking into these for event power.
Totally agree about the sockets rather than grid switches 👍
only items that need to be visible above worktops are socket outlets. all other items behind closed doors, but accessible. 35 years consultant engineer
Well said most customers don't want fusespurs.Put them in cupboards
Love your channel mate. Keep up the good work.
Talking of painting I watched a video the other day with ceiling lights where the sparky fitted some long plastic clips to hold the down lights about an inch away from the plaster.The painter could then get all the ceiling done without getting it all over the new lights.
Nice one Nick bit of all sorts of the day to day life of and electrician, the kitchen mishap that’s a strange one at least you got them all sorted now. The new toy to play with the bluetti looks the business, should keep you going for a while once charged up. Look forward to seeing it in action.
Thanks for sharing this with us take care
Been subscribed to the Information Foghorn for some time. Lots of good information and well worth a follow.
Have you thought of using a 3 phase board with a link in the disconnector so you have a single phase board. It would give you more ways, smaller and with less mess inside
I use the same double sockets in cupboards method and it works out great for customers.. I'm very careful of making holes in them though.. people pay a lot for them after all.
Sandbach ? I once installed a generator for the motorway service station there as maintenance work was being carried out on the local substation ( I was a building services engineer and the company I worked for looked after all the motorway service stations on the M6 )
Always put the appliance sockets next to the appliance. Also always use a socket rather than a Fused connection unit . As cutting the moulded plug off voids the warranty on most appliances
I do the same as much out the way as possible ,nowt worse than reaching behind the toaster and turning the fridge of instead
I really enjoy this weekly format, mate. Very entertaining (even without Adam). Ha! Ha!
Agree with the GPOs in the cupboard
Fruit of the loom are the best T shirts.
Smashing the content lately! Keep it up! 👍
cheers dude
Bet you've got loads of catching up to do when Adam's back of holiday! But atleast you got some odd jobs around the unit out the way.
And I fit sockets in units next to appliances all the time the same way you do. Don't know how anyone has an issue with it, they are accessible to isolate.
Got to be brave to attack that !!!! Good skills
Nick , you ever thought of approaching Monster for sponsorship?? You’ve mentioned and shown their product a few times over the time and realistically with the few mentions etc that’s equated to multi million pound advertisement for free . I’m certain if you offered to put their logo on the back of a T-shirt worn on every video they’d sponsor you for a few thousand pounds a month . May be worth dropping them an email containing a video with a mention of their product to convince them it’d be a good business opportunity for you both. And also Adam could contact Maryland for his channels sponsor.
Nah. I’m waiting for the Y foods sponsorship. 😂.
Great watch as normal.
New Thor film is a good watch, similar to Ragnarok.
Tip to work hard and playhard, use the new powerbank as as a kettlebell 15 mins a day, your have forearms like Cutler in no time 💪
keep up the good work 👍
Nice job on the kitchen. The under cab light difference looks like the thickness of a worktop? did you add on the 20mm for them?
honestly mate can't remember but your probably right
Could have been designer stuck the trims on the dimensions that happens
have stanley stopped doing them boxes then? screwfix used to have millions of them stacked up for £17 and now i want to actually buy them they don't sell them anymore, d'oh!
edited to add a note about the switch issue, we've got all our spur cutoff things for stuff in one wall in a line, so the boiler, washing machine, dishwasher, hood, outside security lights and fridge are all in a nice line, hidden away but also easily accessible, i did wonder why they were needed when the kitchen was done 10 or 12 years ago but they are great
30:43 who's that handsome fella 😍😍😍
Get yourself a Tile Mate for your keys...... the older you get the more you will appreciate it. Amazon
have got them down to £13.99 today on Prime day.
*describes influencer marketing* "I hate the term influencer." 😂 Hehe, just teasing. ❤
"the rich don't work for their money, they let their money work for them" :) ....from a book, Rich Dad, Poor Dad....worth a read.
Great vidz Nick A Project Build a upstairs platform at the back to make a cool Studio for your Review & podcast. What’s your favourite podcast you like to listen to ⚡️👊
Nick you should check out Athlene-x video on lower back pain. Could well help you out.
18:46 & 19:56 - I hope cables are ok by the look of it! Too close to where holes drilled for wall cabinet. 😬
Well noticed, if you look at a later video, the kitchen fitter did drill through the cables !
@@norfolkhall Yep! Bullseye... twice! 🎯🎯😀👌 Oh, even worse, take a close attention to how it fitted... with TINY red wall plugs, like if that really going to hold it!! 😳
You sure Adam ain't doing the old holiday job trial ;p
Great video! Did Jamie actually manage to not swear for this video? Or did you cut all that out. 😂
Always good to see you both on Monday Club 👍🏻
he was very well behaved mate
I was a kitchen fitter, we used to tell customers that if your running plugs about your kitchen was designed and thought about properly. But I don't disagree that much, don't think matter ether way all in
I didn’t think you let mad fans meet you 😂
Super fans 😎 😂😂
@@JRCElectrical Arh. I meant Richard Addblaster
@@AndyK.1 o 😂😂😂
12:35 how much was the T-Shirt press?
£140 I think mate
SMEG & Banjo. Lol
Ironically an electrician ruined one of my bespoke kitchens the other day by treating it like it was some kind of off the shelf chipboard thing from Howdens. Fortunately, most electricians take care.😉
Eicr story was insteresting
Blue-etty Nick. Lol
Never understood why UK electrical boards are made of - conducting - metal ...
Nick you go to pieces without the apprentice ! Just saying ! LOL xx
19.18 speaking of smeg......
😂😎🤘
21:30 Just be honest and admit it's less work for you.
upside down... lol. what a face
Is T Shirt sponsorship really going to have an effect? Customers aren't going to know or give a fuck about who the sponsor is and who else is going to see them?
It’s not for customers mate it’s for viewers of the videos 👍
