Our Raleigh team at Touchstone Electric completed a clean, code-compliant recessed lighting upgrade for a residence in Raleigh, NC. On March 17, 2025, licensed electrician Cody Perry installed five recessed can lights and supplied/installed a compatible dimmer to give the space modern, adjustable illumination. The customer, Currin Outdoor Living, praised our work with a positive review following completion.
Scope of work completed
- 5x Recessed Can Light Fixture Installs – Fixtures provided and installed for an even, low-profile lighting layout. Note: this scope did not include adding a new circuit or running new wire.
- Dimmer: Supplied and Installed – We provided a compatible dimmer switch to deliver smooth, flicker-free control and scene-setting flexibility.
All work was performed by our Raleigh branch and adhered to National Electrical Code requirements and local best practices for safe, reliable lighting.
Why recessed lighting with a dimmer?
- Modern, uncluttered look that blends with any décor and improves resale appeal.
- Balanced, functional light for kitchens, living rooms, and multipurpose areas.
- Energy-smart performance when paired with efficient lamps and proper controls.
- Adjustable ambiance with a dimmer to set the mood for entertaining, task work, or relaxing.
Our installation process in Raleigh
We began with a brief onsite assessment to confirm layout, fixture placement, and compatibility with the existing wiring. Because this project did not include adding a new circuit or running new wire, we utilized the home’s existing electrical infrastructure and verified proper load conditions prior to installation.
Openings were measured and cut precisely for a seamless finish. After mounting the can lights, we installed the dimmer switch, verified compatibility, and tested for smooth, low-end dimming performance. Final steps included circuit testing, functionality checks at multiple brightness levels, and a thorough cleanup so the space was left neat and ready to enjoy.
Project results
The upgraded recessed lighting delivers evenly distributed illumination with a clean, contemporary appearance. With the new dimmer, the homeowner can quickly tailor brightness to the activity—bright for detailed tasks and softer for evenings or movie nights. Following completion, Currin Outdoor Living shared a positive review of our Raleigh team’s professionalism, workmanship, and attention to detail.
