Power & aerial socket for wall mounted LCD

[Deano_uk 10]

Thinking of getting an LCD TV for daughters bedroom but the wall it would need to be mounted on doesnt have a plug socket.

 

I don't want any cables running up the wall so wondered if its possible to get a new socket installed behind where the TV would go on the wall?

 

Is this relatively easy for an electrician to do? can they root the cable from the loft down into the wall?

 

There is a TV aerial junction box in the loft so hoping a socket for that could also be installed?

 

IF its a massive job we won't bother so keen to understand how hard it would be and if it would be very expensive.

Its very unlikely that there would be a power circuit in the loft. There should only be lighting circuits. If you have an airing cupboard that used to house a cylinder (immersion) you could extend that cable up into the loft
