Our electrician has accidentally cut all the ceiling holes for some
halogen downlights about 6mm too big!

The lights now pass through the holes instead of just covering them.

Does anybody have a solution (other than repositioning the lights
somewhere else and filling the holes)?

It strikes me that this must have happened many times before, so
perhaps somebody has invented some sort of hole reducer that you can
press into the hole or something...

Any ideas gratefully received!




get the old bits of plasterboard and cut the centers out smaller, and
stick them back in a bit below the surface with bonding plaster..or just
about anything..then reskim, repaint and mount the lights up.

Or use a scrap piece of plasterboard to make new holes as above.
