Wiring lights in flat with concrete ceilings

[Plonker 3]

If you are going to chop out, I would put plastic conduit it then either fix it with saddles or crampets before plastering over.

It's a crap flat in a nice area, but shallow ceilings, tried chasing into the concrete and went trough the ceiling, not great, so back to the drawing board

You can lead a man to knowledge but you can’t make him think.

You can lead a man to drink but you can’t make him think 'Should I go home now'.

It's already been said, but...

Asbestos was prevalent in artex until approx 20 years ago. Get it professionally tested and removed if necessary. Then batten and board as per post #2. Don't disturb the artex in an way until you know what you're dealing with.


Edit: Actually, it may be 30 years.

i think the amount os asbestos in artex was very low risk.
