Hi,
Just looking for an idea or two regarding a dual fuel towel rail.
At the time of 1st fixing house client was unsure whether it was going to be dual fuel so we agreed to install the cable just in case.
So i installed a switched fused spur outside the bathroom and left enough cable behind the wall where the towel rail was to be installed. At the time of 1st fix i didn't know where the cable entry for the rail was going to be so didn't want to install back box as it could be in completely wrong position.
So now the tilers been and installed these lovely very pricey porcelain tiles all over and i need to somehow connect the towel rail cable with my cable behind the tiles.
normally i would install standard flex outlet for the connection but cant think of a good way to cut out a square hole in the wall tiles to accommodate back box.
The easiest option i can think of is to cut a round hole and installing round plasterboard box. But excuse my ignorance...can you fix square plates onto the round back box? Never installed them so wouldn't know!
Or if anyone else has any options i'm all ears
and if anyone can recommend decent kit to cut through porcelain tiles that would also be brilliant!
Cheers
