Plastering/Electric's Nightmare

vickyb242

Hi Guys,

I need some advice asap about plastering and electric's. We are due to have the electriction round on Monday to wire up some new plug sockets and switches in the kitchen, we have already chased the space for the wires and back boxes to go, and then the plaster was due round on Wednesday to re-skim the wall but now the Electrition cannot make it till Friday, so i called the Plaster but he only has Wednesday available before he goes on hols for two weeks.

Is there anyway of getting the plaster to do he's bit first? then the electric's? I was wondering if it's possible to put trunking in, re-skim over that and then hope the electrician can slide the wires up through the trunking to fix to the back box?

Any advice would be good right now!

It's a no-go, you need to have the electrics done first I'm afraid

you could put conduit in the wall but speak to your electrician

You could try putting the conduit in with something threaded through it so the electrician cna tie the cable to the end and pull it through but your taking a gamble tbh.

i think the two weeks is worth waiting

Hardly worth all the effort. The electrician could put trunking or conduit in but he knows exactly what and where it is needed, you don't. I should just have a bit of patience, it will all come good in the end.
