Have just sold my body to science to pay for new carpet, furniture, lights etc etc.
Decorated three rooms. Moved furniture out. Lifted old carpet.
Now She Who Must Be Obeyed says she wants a single socket converted to a double. Have done this before, but decorated after. Is there any way I can get away with this without having to redecorate? Wall is covered with wallpaper, and has a coat of white emulsion on top.
How about Stanley knife to cut through paper and plaster? Then scutch chisel, millimetre by millimetre? Will be positioning backplate so that it is centred on old backplate (no need to find extra play in cables).
Whajja thinks? Should I lie down in dark room till idea goes away? Much regards for helps.
