to Chase or not to Chase that is the question

[Chrishands]

Hi has anybody got any pictures of wall mounted cables on the outside of a house to serve lights.
i wanted to get 3 up/down lighters on the outside of the house, the easiest least distruptive way was to have cable clipped to the outside. however, i wonder if it would be an absolute isoar or would it look ok if it was neatly clipped.

The other option would be to chase the walls inside the house, but its just been decorated so wanted to avoid that

I would have saved the decorating until after all the 1st fix.

If you've only just had the decorating done, presumably you'll still have some paint or wallpaper left over to do the making good?
Remember if the cabling is chased in from the inside it'll still need to be in safe zones, which could involve backboxes and blank plates.
