[QUOTE="bengie, post: 96374, member: 7131"] just because the builders have wired for a light that might not be wanted doesn't make them hateful thieving scumbags. not wishing to tell anyone to suck eggs here, this is more for those not in the business. when wiring a house(especially a new build) it is amazingly simple to add sockets/lights etc anywhere you want, its childs play as there are no tenants/owners, no furniture, no floors, no ceilings, no walls etc etc and when an estate of new builds go up basically all houses are built/wired the same regardless of any "choices" given to the owner, its simply easier to wire them all the same much like cars as someone has already mentioned. then the new owners are given choices about things like extra lights etc at a cost and the builders have gone out on a limb and pre wired a lot of these options simply to make their life easier. they are not charging [/QUOTE]
