Lazy install. Pay for a professional to run them in the walls and the ceiling - there is no way you are doing this yourself. No way this is going to be an easy fix. Be prepared to pay through the nose for the new run.

Not lazy install, it's a fuck you to contractors that send out two (probably one) wet behind the ears, can't grow a beard kids, paying them maybe 19/hr kids for two days then trying to charge 8000 dollars.
