    The strict laws around employing tradies is borderline insane if not outright bonkers in Australia.

    Yes, some electrical things are beyond me but changing taps isn’t particularly difficult apart from say, annoying tools one might need beyond a basic spanner.

    I feel it’s originally a sop to the trades classes for a vote rather than anything sensible.
