It was more general advice than anything. Print screen is not effective so I thought I'd offer some advice and help.

Rather than use print screen, you can probably use the snipping tool.

Dropped Ceiling For Electrical Upgrade

Thanks for the advice from all.
A 40-50mm dropped ceiling would be fantastic.
I would like to use some form of lighting which limits the loss of ceiling height.
What sort of down…

85mm isn't too bad. Down lights?
The acoustic solution also sounds good.

I'm looking for some extremely shallow down lights, I want to lose an absolute minimum in ceiling height.

I work in flooring - do you have a flooring question?

I agree with you. There isn't much information on this new "innovative product" as well. I think I'll stick with Engineered Timber Oak (4mm veneer).

Super Tough European Oak Engineered Timber Flooring
"Super tough timber veneer compressed from 6mm to 2mm, absolutely new innovative product."

Hmm, it's being marketed as "Super Tough Oak"....5mm oak layer compressed to 1.5mm
