Closet Lighting & Switch Installation in Matthews, NC
Our Charlotte branch completed a clean, code-focused closet lighting upgrade for a homeowner in Matthews. Led by technician Christian Cedillos, this project added bright, reliable illumination to multiple closets with convenient wall switches and neatly concealed wiring. Completed on January 23, 2026, the work delivers safe operation, easy control, and a tidy finish that blends with the home’s interior.
Project Overview
For customer Benjamin Oles in Matthews, we installed new closet light fixtures, added matching wall switches, and provided power to each location. Our team carefully fished cable through finished walls and ceilings to avoid unnecessary drywall cuts, preserving the look of the home while upgrading functionality.
- 3 light fixtures installed: Customer-supplied fixtures set on existing ceiling boxes/circuits where applicable.
- 3 wall switches added: Standard 2-way control for each fixture, placed for convenient access.
- 45 feet of 14/2 NM-B Romex: Routed to supply power to all new lighting points.
- 20 feet of wire fishing: Precision fishing through hard-to-reach areas to keep finishes intact.
The result is bright, practical closet lighting that operates smoothly from newly installed switches—without messy surface raceways or visible cables.
Materials and Methods
We used 14/2 NM-B Romex cable for these 15-amp lighting runs and added junction boxes where required for safe splicing and accessibility. Our technicians followed best practices for conductor terminations, equipment grounding, and support of cable within concealed spaces. All devices were secured, aligned, and tested to confirm proper operation and a professional appearance.
Special attention went to expert wire fishing, which allowed us to route cable through finished walls and ceilings with minimal disruption—perfect for occupied homes where cleanliness and speed matter.
