How much does it cost to install halogen lights?
I have traditional bulb ceilng lights wholse through my house. I want to replace it with halogen lights.
I got the quotation of £70 per light to install.
Do you think it's a fair quotation? If not, how much should I look at?
In order to cover 3x10m through lounge how much would it cost?

Halogens give off a lot of heat, something to think about.
£70 a light seems very expensive ... depends, is he just going to replace the lights that are already there, or is he going to install new cable, if its the later it still seems expensive.
Why not get 3 quotes .. you should always do that, for all jobs.

I live in London, so bear that in mind for price comparisons.
My electrician quoted £50 per light for each light, but only if there were a certain amount. ie if he were just doing 4, £200 barely covers the call out, unless they're local.
as per the other answers, get a few quotes and ask how much it will be per light if you ask for more lights to be done (eg 10 lights - £70 per light, 20 lights = £50 per light etc)
