Hello there, just had a triple light switch fitted but the order of the switches is wrong. The left and centre switches need to be swapped. Can someone please tell me how do I do this?

Looking at the plasterwork around the switch I'd guess the electrician might still be around. Can't you get him to do it?

With multiple light switches there's always a possibility there could be live supplies going to different switches which are from different circuits at the CU. There could be more than one circuit that needs isolating before you start messing so beware.

I'll echo this advice
 
As above if you have just had this done get him back and let him sort it for you.
 
We are in process of total house refurb and plaster is off the wall in places.
