Hall stairs and landing light problems

Forget the dodgy electrics and please sand down that paintwork above the light switch!

What does the other switch on the two gang switch do? It looks to me like a borrowed neutral situation where the live is taken from the ground floor link over to the common and upstairs single and earth as switched wire. I would get that checked out.

hit it with a hammer. if it don't fix, then call an electrician.

You lot sound like you’ve been out ‘hand bag’ shopping - what cruel remarks. The OP is probably sitting in a puddle of his own tears at the woodwork remark!
As the ‘nasty’ men have said, get sparks in and get it remedied. The time you save can be spent sanding the woodwork - Doh, now you’ve got me doing it!

it's not the artex that;s rthe main issuer. did a plumber cut out for that switch using a kangoo?

a bit of culture added to the thread. after this, all will become clear. lve long and prosper.:
