The wife is having an extension built, and the external, outside, wall with the BT external box on it - looking like...

.
- is being demolished, moved some 1.5mtrs out. So "old" internal house-wiring to socket will need to be connected to re-located external box.
Who/what/where do we contact BT to do this work?? Presumably as there are two wires this is highly technical stuff that only they are capable of..
Any suggestions gratefully received..
Regards and thanks in advance

Of course only BT Openreach are supposed to do this, but it seems that no-one will take the slightest bit of notice if you do it yourself - unless you make a complete pig's ear of the job, which is probably not very likely.
Mind you, if some jobsworth finds out then expect them to lock you up and throw away the key - or so I've heard! :rotfl:
