Wondered if anyone cal shed some light.
so I've been assigned a new internal assessor for my nvq portfolio work. He looked over my original hot water and cold water submissions he wasn’t happy ( he’s very old school) so I re did another bathroom suit demonstrating hot and cold water cutting back some pipe work fitting the appliances and isolation valves ect. The house I was working in was an American style built house so all the plumbing pipe work is in the wall cavities there was a section of pipe work under the bath I could access by cutting away some plasterboard I cut back what I could and re piped but I work for a housing association and can’t just rip peoples walls down. I’ve spent hours adding photos and writing a very detailed account and guess what he still isn’t happy. I’ve spoken to my old assessor about it and he agrees with me and is on my side. The currant assessor has said there’s not enough pipe work especially first fix ( which isn’t always possible to access) I’ve done as much as I physically can on each appliance. Where do I stand can I appeal ect. Working for the company I do means unfortunately we are on a budget per bathroom. I did demonstrate running some pipe work. I just feel what he wants me to do in his eyes is kind of impossible. Any suggestions welcome
 
If the Awarding Body is C & G. Then they state that ideally, there should be just Hot & Cold tails entering the room. Pipework then run to Bath or Shower, WHB & WC (at least 3 appliances).
You have to complete TWO separate install of each of your chosen system types. So is this post referring to your first install? If not what did the first install comprise of?
Of course you have a right of appeal.
