hi all,
my walls are timber framed with laths and plaster, i have been debating which electrical back boxes to use with my electrician friend. Anyone got any ideas?
Am i right in thinking that recessed boxes will weaken the walls as i will have to cut through laths to fit them,
i dont like the though of surface mouted boxes, they look awful, i know i have seen them 16mm deep, but that is still too much for me.
I have also seen recessed boxed that are 16mm deep, i was thinking they may just be shallow enough to not have to cut through laths.
any thoughts?
