LED Fixture Replacement & Porch Light Repair in Kannapolis, NC

On March 25, 2024, Touchstone Electric’s Charlotte team completed a lighting service visit for Eddie Hermosisima in Kannapolis, NC. Technician Danny Bishop arrived from our Matthews branch to handle multiple lighting needs, including interior LED fixture replacements, a front porch light repair, and a safety correction for an open splice found in the attic.

Primary Category: Lighting & Ceiling Fans
Secondary Category: Lighting Installation

Scope of Work

Replaced three interior fixtures: Installed customer-supplied LED fixtures in the kitchen, bedroom, and garage using the existing boxes and circuits for a clean, efficient upgrade.
Diagnosed and repaired front porch lighting: Traced the issue, tested components, and restored dependable operation so the entryway is well lit and welcoming after dark.
Corrected an open splice in the attic: Brought the wiring up to standard by enclosing conductors in an approved junction box with a cover and making secure, code-compliant splices.

All work concluded with functional checks and a tidy cleanup so the home was left safe, bright, and ready to enjoy.

Why This Project Matters

LED upgrades deliver better light quality while using less energy, and they often run cooler and last significantly longer than traditional bulbs. Replacing outdated fixtures in key spaces such as kitchens, bedrooms, and garages can boost comfort, visibility, and curb appeal.

Porch lighting repairs improve security and convenience at the front door, helping homeowners and visitors navigate safely at night.

Correcting open splices is a critical safety measure. Exposed or improperly contained wiring can pose shock and fire risks. Enclosing splices in a proper junction box provides mechanical protection and keeps connections secure and accessible for future maintenance.

Our Process for Lighting Installation and Repair

Professional diagnostic: We start by inspecting the affected fixtures, switches, and wiring to pinpoint the exact issue before any repairs are made.
Safe work practices: Power is verified off at the panel and connections are tested to ensure a safe work environment.
Clean fixture replacement: Customer-provided fixtures are mounted securely to existing boxes, with proper grounding and neat terminations.
Code-focused corrections: Any wiring hazards—such as open splices—are corrected inside listed junction boxes with covers.
Functional testing: We test operation at the switch, verify proper brightness and polarity, and confirm reliable performance.
Final walkthrough: The homeowner is shown the completed work and provided tips for maximizing fixture life and safety.

Project Results for This Kannapolis Home

The interior spaces are brighter and more efficient thanks to the new LED fixtures, the front porch light now operates reliably for nighttime visibility, and the attic wiring is safer with a compliant junction box in place. Following completion, the customer praised our work with a positive review.
