Finish Electrical – Fans, Lights, Outlets and Switches

Finish Electrical – Fans, Lights, Outlets and Switches

The electrician came back and put in the outlets and switches.

They put in the breaker box. They labeled everything. Wonderful!

There was a little misunderstanding about the lighting. We were supplying the fans with light for the back porch. Someone there read that line item and thought we were supplying all of the lighting.

Works for me. We had already bought a lot of the lighting, so we went out and picked up the rest. They have promised a credit for the lighting package.

We replaced a lot of the lighting with recessed lighting.

These are the outdoor lights on either side of the garage door. (This won’t be the light bulb we will use.)

This is the pendant on the front porch.

We used these in both bathrooms. I really prefer chrome over the satin nickel that was supposed to come with the house package. I really like chrome in a bathroom.

We put these in all the bedrooms.

And these are the porch fans.

I really love them!
We decided to wait to put in the chandelier, pendants over the bar and the pendant in the foyer. I don’t want them to get broken. When the carpenters are done, we can put them in ourselves.

We missed one light. I didn’t realize there is a light in the foyer closet. We’ll get that this weekend.

If the electrician isn’t coming back, we’ll put it in ourselves.

I took pictures of outlets and switches, but… you know what they look like.
