Ceiling Fan and Lighting Installation in Charlotte, NC
Our Charlotte branch completed a clean, code-compliant ceiling fan and lighting installation for homeowner Can "John" Yanik. Led by technician Gump Martin, this Lighting & Ceiling Fans project was finished on October 29, 2024 and showcases our fast, reliable workmanship throughout the greater Charlotte, NC area.
From careful wire fishing to secure fixture mounting, we delivered a neat result with safe operation and a polished look—exactly what homeowners expect from Touchstone Electric.
Project Overview
- Location: Charlotte, NC (serviced by our Matthews-based Charlotte team)
- Service categories: Lighting & Ceiling Fans; Lighting Installation
- Scope: Install customer-supplied ceiling fan and light on an existing circuit/box
- Completion date: October 29, 2024
- Crew: Lead electrician Gump Martin with an additional wireman for efficiency and safety
To ensure a tidy finish without unnecessary drywall cuts, our team planned the wire routes first, then executed the install with minimal disruption to the home.
What We Did
- Installed two customer-supplied fixtures: one ceiling fan and one light, mounted to the existing box/circuit.
- Pulled approximately 50 feet of 14/2 NM-B Romex for the 15-amp lighting circuit, including junction box components where required.
- Performed about 25 feet of wire fishing through tight and hard-to-reach spaces for a clean look and reduced surface disturbance.
- Verified the existing ceiling box was properly supported for a fan and confirmed secure mounting hardware.
- Terminated all connections with proper torque, polarity checks, and strain relief; labeled as needed for clarity.
- Balanced and tested the ceiling fan (speeds and direction) and confirmed proper operation of the new light.
- Final cleanup to leave the work area neat and ready for use.
This approach allowed us to deliver a clean, safe installation while protecting finished surfaces—ideal for occupied homes in Charlotte, NC.
