I will shortly be changing the position of my electrical sockets in one of
my bedrooms. Currently they are surface mounted sockets, but for neatness I would like to take this opportunity to change them to flush fitting sockets. When I have previously attempted to fix back boxes into walls on previous jobs, I have always had problems getting the box square, and sitting flush in the wall. I have previously only used a drill, hammer and bolster to create the hole for the box. Recently I have seen these Box Sinker Sets that fit to an SDS drill to create a perfect hole and they also are used to channel the wall out for the cable, has anyone any experience of using these? If so, are they worth the investment? (not just for one job), or has anyone got any other tips for me to make the job easier and neater. Thanks in advance Paul |
