converting flush ceiling light to normal ones

[wait096]

Hi

I've currently got flush ceiling lights in the flat I moved into and although everyone seems to love them, I prefer the traditional ones that hang down. Is it easy to convert these back and how woud I go about it?

I'm in the London area, how much would I expect to pay to get an electrician to do this

Thanks

Depending on the size of the hole, you will probably need to repair this.

The cost will depend on how easy this is to achieve. In a flat there is probably no access from above, so this may mean cutting out sections of ceiling and re-boarding and skimming.

As for 2 ceiling roses about £50

hi can you post a picture of the existing lights.
electricaly its probebly a simple job
and if you are decorating then the making good
should not present much of a problem.
as for cost most electricians will only price
work when they are onsite to have a look
