Ouch, if you mean putting back boxes into walls, then I recently got a
new toy. It's and EBS. A two part tool which goes into a SDS drill and
within 3 minutes drills a single gang flat bottomed square hole.

It cost 90ukp from Screwfix and although I have only done 20 holes it
saved a lot of time and mess.

A worth while investment.
