Case Study:

Seamless Ceiling Fan & Downlight Installation in Box Hill

Client: Kate Pascale – Box Hill Homeowner
Project: Installation of ceiling fans and downlights on the ground floor of a two-story home
Electricians: AJD Electrical Solutions (Aidan and Ben)

The Challenge

Installing Ceiling Fans in a Difficult Location

Kate Pascale wanted to enhance the comfort and airflow in her home by installing ceiling fans on the ground floor. However, with a two-story structure, traditional installation methods posed a significant challenge. Most electricians would consider this an almost impossible job due to the lack of accessible ceiling space and the structural support required to mount the fans securely.

Additionally, Kate wanted to upgrade her home’s lighting with modern downlights, ensuring a bright, energy-efficient living space. The goal was to complete the job without unnecessary damage to the ceiling, avoiding the need for extensive patching or repainting.

Our Solution

Thinking Outside the Box

At AJD Electrical Solutions, we pride ourselves on tackling complex jobs with innovative solutions.

Here’s how we approached this project:

  • Smart Investigation: Instead of cutting unnecessary holes, we used the existing downlight openings to carefully investigate the timber structure in the ceiling. This allowed us to map out the space and determine the best approach without damaging the plaster.

  • Repurposing Existing Wiring: We identified and adapted some of the existing switch wires, allowing us to install the fans efficiently without needing to run completely new wiring throughout the home.

  • Seamless Execution: Our careful planning and problem-solving ensured the job was completed to the highest standard—without requiring any patching or additional work for the homeowner.

The Result

A Perfectly Executed Installation

The final outcome was a resounding success. The client now enjoys improved airflow and lighting throughout her home, with the ceiling fans and downlights installed seamlessly. Thanks to our expertise and problem-solving skills, what seemed like an impossible task was completed efficiently and without any visible impact on the ceiling’s appearance.

Kate was thrilled with the work, stating:

“I’d highly recommend AJD Electrical Solutions. Every step of the process was easy and efficient, and the team was professional, polite, and communicated every step of the process clearly. Every time they’ve visited, they arrived on time, worked hard, and cleaned up after themselves. I won’t hesitate to use AJD again in the future. Thanks, Aidan and Ben!”
