Uneven ceiling and some new lights?

Posted by Steve Bibby, on
I have an uneven ceiling in one bedroom. It also only has one light, which isn't enough. What might be the best way to level the ceiling, and how much to remove existing light and install, say, half a dozen LED spots? All done in one job ideally.
