Moving light fittings - help please!

Recommended Posts

Hi,


This is my first post, as I just moved to the area. I hope you will be patient with me if my question is a bit stupid!


I need to move a light fitting in the ceiling by about 4 feet (from the centre of the room off to one side), replaster the hole, and hang a heavy light in the new fitting location. I also need to add two wall light fittings on a wall which has no existing light fittings, and mount two lights on those. Can anyone tell me what sort of trades-person (/trades-people?) I need to do this, and recommend solmeone that would be good for the job?


Thanks so much in advance!

Graeme

Hi KidKruger, thanks for replying. I can access the floor above, I just don't know how to get an electrical output installed at the right point in the ceiling, or what sort of materials I need to put there to support the light fitting (and what category of trades-person I need to do this for me).

    • Nice to see the property is going to reopen with a Newish business, good luck to them.
    • Of course they do, watching cookery shows and buying cook books is a national pastime. However you raise a good point that some people claim they are time poor and end up eating out / takeaways as sometimes a quick macciedee is cheaper and easier than making a quick nutrious family meal.  However to put it in balance, not many people have the knowledge, confidence and time to cook Persian so good luck to team persepolis on this venture.
