Hello

We need to do the following:

  • replace wall light fittings
  • replace existing light switches and sockets
  • paint the walls, ceiling, woodwork
  • sand and seal the floor

Can anyone explain the best order to do these jobs?

Do the wall lights need any changes to the plasterwork, or just a straight swap with no making-good? If none then I'd do:

  1. paint ceiling
  2. sand and seal floor
  3. woodwork
  4. paint walls
  5. replace wall lights and switches/sockets
