That's some good advice Ikiru. My builder was a bit picky about me doing stuff in there. I added some speaker wire, and I gave some better quality wire to the HT guy for the runs I paid for. I'm fairly certain in my house most of wire was run decently. I never saw any phone/coax running directly alongside electrical cable.
The food thing is a bit disconcerting. Even if you clean it before drywall, you never know if the drywallers do anything. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Fortunately my plan was fairly simple, so I could see most everything before the insulation went in, and they cleaned it pretty good.
The worse part is, there's so much to think about, you'll never cover it all. There's certain lights I'd like moved now for example. And Jim has a recessed light where I have a surface light, so you can't even tell from house to house how it will be. But its satisfying once its done.
So Ikiru, how long until you're finished?
