I'm pondering adding another light in my hallway, preferably to be controlled by the light switch which controls the existing light (it's the same hallway, I can't think of any circumstance when you'd want one but not the other on).
It's a flat roof above so I have no access from the top.
I assume the process is to put a narrow channel in the plaster/board from the existing light fixture to the new one, wire a spur into the existing fixture down to where I want the new one, add the light and then somehow patch over the channel.
Does this sound sensible? Am I missing something that is likely to electrocute everyone in the neighbourhood, set the house on fire, result in the apocalypse, make it look a bit shit?
