"Beautifully installed vertical flue system on a pitched roof"

is it that hard for people to do it right

And also could have saved them the cost of the mastic, is it a case that installers just can not be bothered about doing a good job,or is it that they have not been trained by any one of a decent standard.to be fare it would have taken no more time to do it correct which baffles me.
 
I believe, routing the cables horizontally or vertically is called good practise. Running them "wild" is a last resort if you cannot avoid it.

There is a good reason why it has to be shielded sufficiently.
 
having core drilled through a cable that was run up from a socket and the horzontally along in lintel then down diagonally where i was putting the boiler, i agree up or down from sockets and switches is good practice
so i pulled it out the wall into a surface box run it horizontal and then down in mini trunking to a second surface box which i used as a socket
i then had the sparks swearing down the phone that i had broken his ring and he wouldnt sign theat circuit off so we sacked him and got another sparks who had a clue

Came across this under an icon yesterday while repairing a leak on the cold main inlet
Gave me a belt and I did a bit of a jig to celebrate
Scary really, it's been like it for 8/10 yrs since its been installed and there were kids in the house
