Dear All
The months of building work are nearly at an end and we are at the painting, carpets and no money stage.
We are also at the stage where we notice things which could have been done a little better. In this category are the downlighters in the bathroom. These are held in by two springs and to change the bulbs or paint the ceiling, you pull them down into the room. Problem is, each time we pull them through, the springs cut a little further into the plasterboard. This will eventually leave them hanging loose.
My question is, does anyone know if metal rings exist that can be pushed up into the hole in the plasterboard (or pushed down into it from the loft) and then fixed, making a rigid, stable hole into which the downlighter can be pushed? Failing this, does anyone have any creative solutions / great inventions?
Thanks
David
