Why doesn't anyone ever think to come through the floor above? It's a lot easier to have carpet restretched than to have texture matched.

I suppose that could be done. But I think I'd rather have the holes patched than have someone mess with the flooring in the rooms above. In my case I have old-fashioned parquet flooring which you'd think you could just pry up, do the electric work and re-lay the parquet. But I still think I'd rather just patch any ceiling holes.
I've gotten a quote of 400 per room and that's WITH attic access, but no current fixture, so no boxes or braces. And I was told the joists are too far apart so the usual support braces won't work. So they'll have to do some extra work on that.
