[QUOTE="Hefferl, post: 445865, member: 2471"] I take measurements before the ceiling is boarded out. Once it has been boarded I cut holes before plasterer has skimmed. Mistakes do happen - these can easily be fixed before skimming - not so easy afterwards. The plasterer is just trying to make things easier for himself - which isn't necessarily the best approach for the job as whole. The ceiling can be skimmed after holes are cut easily enough - indeed one plasterer I work with prefers the downlights to be half in BEFORE he skims so that he has enough light - he is skilled enough to do this, not all are.
