New-home electrical trim-out in Cedar Mountain, NC
Touchstone Electric completed a new-build trim-out for Home Life Construction, Inc. in Cedar Mountain, NC on November 21, 2025.

- Connected bath and utility vent fans (ducting provided by others) and verified proper power and switching.
- Installed outdoor and equipment disconnects for HVAC and other major appliances to meet safety and serviceability requirements.
- Hooked up customer-supplied appliances as needed: disposal, dishwasher, range, cooktop, microwave, washer, and dryer.
- Set fixtures per plan and energized devices; lighting fixtures were supplied by the customer.
- Doorbell and chime excluded from the project scope per the contract.
- Change orders required for any additions beyond the original equipment schedule.

Safety-first installation and code compliance
Life-safety devices and final connections were completed to meet plan specifications and applicable electrical codes for new construction in North Carolina. Interconnected, properly located smoke alarms help ensure whole-home notification. For homes that require carbon monoxide monitoring, we support dedicated CO alarms or combination smoke/CO units to align with the design and local standards.
Our team verified correct breaker sizing, grounding and bonding, and proper placement and labeling of disconnects so future service is safe and straightforward.
