How to fix flush ceiling lights of 10–25 kg to an Artex-coated ceiling
On an Artex-coated ceiling, fix flush ceiling lights of 10–25 kg with screws into a joist or a timber noggin, rated for at least 50 kg in a ceiling — twice the weight. A plasterboard screw on its own has no ceiling rating. Have an electrician or fitter fix it. If the coating went on before 2000 it can contain asbestos: have it tested before drilling (HSE). 12 models state a weight in this range.
