Flooring with walkover lights.

[afright]

I have just had a job come in, which is a dinning room floor, the customer wants Travertine with walkover led lights in the floor close to the skirting I have had a look at these lights and it looks like I will have cut a chasing thru the screed to take the depth of the lights,just like to have a bit of advice if any of you lads have ever tackle something like this before cheers.

Sounds awesome you're going to have to take pictures of that one for job of the month mate.

Advise wise: I have nothing.

The lads here would have done that though I'm sure.

You'll need to talk to the sparky re access for as and when / if ever a fault occurs, the led's will run to a transformer but will / should be daisy chained, depending how close to the skirting and what size chase the sparks need it could be interesting.

using these atm in shower recesses...daisy chain clips on them also

The last time I did one of these we set a plastic pipe in the screed between each light site.

The volume and diameter of pipe will be determined by the amount of cable required to run, we got away with 22mm plastic overflow pipe back then.

I am talking pre part P though.

Yes I was thinking along those lines as the lights I have seen only have 1 metre of cable on them,I will have to keep looking for a few different ideas the job is not until the spring so got a few months to get my head round it will be something new,I have done it on a porcelain floor but this was on a wood floor so easy access but did not fit the lights this time its in my price.
