I am amazed the workmen here want everything cleared out and preferable cleaned down before they will move a finger .
Just want a clear space to do our thing, and not have to worry about where we stand or put our hands in case there’s excrement there.
You are correct. A house owner can replace stuff like for like if they are competent/confident to do so (except for items in bathrooms, kitchens and outside). The risk is, that they won’t be able to do an earthing test after the job is completed

It’s because of liability - if the homeowner moves, and damages some item, the damage rests firmly with them.
