I thought about cutting the holes, and connecting and running non powered wires and have an electrician do the rest, but is it really that cost effective or would he rather do it all his way anyway?
I’m thinking there will be a total of 22 cans going in to start. 4 per bedroom and 6 in the front living room. Den, dining, kitchen at least have some overhead. What cost should I expect if I pay a guy?
6 1/8" hole saw, a roll of wire. Pick up the hot feed from whatever overhead source you have, get remodel cans and the LED trim kits from HD or Lowes and plug and play.
Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy but they're definitely dirty. But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.
