PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING: Hello Forumites! In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour. Threads that are found to have derailed into wider discussions may be removed. Users who repeatedly disregard this may have their Forum account banned. Please also avoid posting personally identifiable information, including links to your own online property listing which may reveal your address. Thank you for your understanding.

We have 3 runs of track lights in the kitchen, 31 years old and now fitted with LEDs, tracklights seem to be back in fashion, plus 3 recessed downlights centrally placed, no problems with them in 20 years, plus under cupboard worktop lighting, now converted to LED, and a dimmable rise and fall fitting over the table.0

Track lights look like a good option too. I think we are not adding any down lights then.0 -
When i bought my new build the site manager let me pay their builders extra to fully tiles my bathrooms and do the floor tiles whilst they were on the job.
Might be worth asking if they are happy for you to do something similar? If its their own staff doing the work might negate any problems that might arise0
