Just looking for advice on whether this is even possible before I call out the professionals. I suspect it is but wouldn't be keen if it is complicated (expensive).
What I am looking to do is fairly simple; add a floodlight over my garage door to light my driveway however I don’t want it to be PIR controlled so it would be turned on from switch in the garage instead.
There is an existing switch in the garage which controls the light in there. Could the single switch be changed to a double which then runs to the new light? Would the current come from the existing switch or would it need to be run from somewhere else?
If the job is fairly simple I may do it myself (I've added in a spurred socket before) but have never done this type of work so may just call in the pros!
Help as always would be appreciated.
Thanks
Chris
