In our house the light fixtures were converted from gas to electrical long time ago. Apparently at that time people did not use wall mounted light switches.
I need to switch light on and off. In many places we have switch on the fixture. In some places I can get away with X10 wireless controllers. But in some places I want wall mounted switches.

The wires are behind the tin ceiling so when I showed it to electrician he said that it is very hard to open the wall, etc. We dumped cellulose insulation into the attic so wires of the top floor also hard to find.
Do we have any other options in installing switches.
