Low Voltage Track Lighting Help

Hi All
hope you can help,
Bit of background:
I am doing up my mum's hallway and thought this would be nice to use wire track lighting like the Norrsken range in Ikea, (can't post links yet!)

Just wanted advice on how easy it is to fit to the the transformer ceiling as opposed to the wall and what should i expect to pay price wise for an electrician to do it, I am in London/Surrey

have a few more ? on different projects but this is the first of many!!

TIA xx

    There would be no problem fitting the transformer to either wall or ceiling. I cannot help you about the price as all jobs are different, and the main factor governing price would probably be the position of the electricity supply.
    I can afford anything that I want.
    Just so long as I don't want much.
