Moving Light Fixture's in Bedroom

Just wondering if there are any sparkie's here who can advise how much of a pain it would be to move the ceiling light in 2 bedroom's - they are currently at one end of the room but I would like to move them into the centre :rolleyes: :rolleyes: (I know I'm a woman, never satisfied, yada yada!!) - is this a big job and does anyone know roughly how much it should cost me?

Thanks for any help :D

    can you get in to the loft above (unhindered with flooring etc) ?

    if so then <£90 including paperwork all in for both.

    this assumes existing wiring is safe and earthed.
    baldly going on...

    the other alternative is merely to keep the existing light fitting and have a second one at the other end of the room, we did that in last house rather than having to fill in the hole left by moving and needing to re-artex
