Hi there,
I know this gets asked a lot, but I'm a bit on the fence. There's a handful of junction boxes in the loft - some that are acting as the ceiling rose for the upstairs lights, and others which look to be spurs for lights such as the airing cupboard and loft.
I'm insulating the loft, as there wasn't much there before. Would you, as savvy fellows, bother to replace the cables between the boxes and lay it over the insulation and joists - or would you just insulate on top? At the moment it's been laid quick tightly through the rafters (drilled holes), so there's no way I can lay underneath. I suppose I could screw some dowel between the truss beams (I think they are called that), and run the cable along that.
I plan to install an extractor fan in the bathroom, but other than that, the ceiling lights are low-watt energy saving bulbs. The electric shower cable will not be covered.
