Do most domestic electricians do the filling and plastering after the install or leave it to a plasterer to make good.
 
I do all my own making good.

Chases, I use easifill 20 min as it goes off in 20 mins funnily enough and then I can power sand it if need be.

I Hoover all chases first so they are dirt free.

One the other day, I thought it was going to be a quick easy job, but turned into a big job, you know those double single back boxes, not a double but two singles in one frame.

The woman said can I convert the single plug into a double... Yeah no problem

The back box was fixed at the sides, nothing behind it apart from a damn cavity, took it out, made an even bigger hole in the wall, wammed loads of 20 min easi fill in mixed with brick set the boxes in, jobs a good n. the lady had just had brand new carpet laid that morning too...
I take it you mean a dual box. [ElectriciansForums.net] Making good
 
I do all my own making good as I've spent enough time with the plastering trowel over the years.

It can be a pain, but I'd rather do it myself than sub in someone else who might cock it all up.
