Hi guys.. Usually when you all add new lighting point with switch , do you pull a wire from DB or you just loop the live wire from the nearest switch and pull it back to the plaster ceiling ? Btw any idea what's the market rate for 13amp point from DB ?

One more question if I have one existing light point and I loop it into 4 light points.. Do they charge 3 points or 4 points ?... There will be some location adjustment to the 4 point as the original point is at the centre and I wan the 4 points to be at corners of the room ...
