Well, some of the boarding isn't down, some is down but coming up

(I have just realised) have to sort out ducting for the ceiling fan(s)
in the bathroom coming up through the floor. Could do cutouts but a hole
saw might be easier.

Just how often do you think you'll need access for 'maintenance'? I
rewired this place some 40 years ago and haven't done any maintenance on
the wiring since. Of course if you decide to alter the lighting - like say
add extra lights or move them - an access trap only over the existing
won't be that much help.
