[quote=Anonymous]We did this in our living room-- six lights on two switches. We had them put up drywall over the exisitng plaster since the plaster was in bad condition. The drywall needs to be screwed in to the joists. Painting included, we paid about $1300, but hired some friends of a friend, who did the job well, but were a PITA to work with and not terribly professional. The quotes we got from proper contractors were twice the price. I imagine that if you plaster is in good condition it would cost less, as noted by the PP who paid $1000. All the quotes we received were based on the number of lights we wanted and if you want 3,4,5,or 6 inch lights.[/quote]
