Could you post a photo. Is the switch inside the wall or is it on the surface? This would determine how much work is involved because of the concrete wall.
Check with electrical codes in your area. You may be breaking a code if you move it inside the bathroom.
Unless you have a ticket in electrical I would not advise this as a home project. There are certain codes to be met with as well as what type of wiring throughout your home that may or may not be up to date Or to code. Please find a reputable electrician.
Hi Here in the UK you cannot have a wall light switch in the bathroom only a pull cord one for obvious reasons.I would get an electrician to do it for me but for my own safety I would go for a pull cord anyway.
Are you moving it into the bathroom right behind where it is now?
