When fitting an extractor fan bear in mind that it may need replacing at some stage, and siliconing it into the ducting is a tawts move.

I used to know someone who painted straight over light switches and sockets. Not just the sides of them - right over the whole things!! Looked terrible. Daz
OP
any decorator worth a brushfull of magnolia would lift the accessories off and paint/paper behind them.
OP
This bloke is ex council mate, if you stood still for 5 minutes he would paint you! He always amazes me though in that he never gets any paint on himself!
he's not atime served painter then.if he was, he'd be covered in paint. his van would be spattered all inside with gloss white over purple emulsion, and his missus would have orange hair.
...i've a feeling you may know such a painter,and these salient facts betray a story....care to share,Tel? :tounge_smile:
