[QUOTE="Boyd761, post: 546047, member: 36972"] Hello, I’ve had my garden landscaped and had some pathway led lights fitted in to sleepers. Now this wasn’t a cheap install when I say cheap I mean “cheap” to me as I know gardens cost a fair bit , this was 13k and they said they’d take care of the lights and I said I’d like to paint the sleepers as per my wife’s request and I’d need to pop them out. Well Sunday I tried exactly that and to my surprise they just broke at the led circuit board due to no movement on the wire located under the tiles. I’ve discussed this with the landscaper and it’s wired to a sealed box and that’s how they have done it in the past but I’m baffled at this as if they ever needed replaced you just couldn’t get to the wiring without taking up the tiles, is this normal practice? I’ve asked what else can be done and they say that’s how it is but surely this can’t be true as it’s a serviceable part ???? Any advice on how this can be installed better , I’ve searched and searched but I have no experience when it comes to this any help would be hugely appreciated. [/QUOTE]
