PROJECT DESCRIPTION: KITCHEN TAPE LIGHT & EXHAUST FAN REPLACEMENTS – FORT MYERS BEACH, FL

Our team returned to a home in Fort Myers Beach, FL 33931, to finish a few important upgrades. The project included completing undercabinet tape lighting in the kitchen and replacing two older bathroom exhaust fans with new, customer-supplied units. These updates may seem simple, but they make a big difference in comfort, safety, and everyday convenience.

In the kitchen, the customer’s original tape light installation came up short, leaving part of the counter area without coverage. We installed the missing section, creating a seamless run of lighting that now provides even illumination across the workspace. This not only improves functionality for cooking and prep but also gives the kitchen a more polished appearance.

In the bathrooms, ventilation was the focus. Both the guest bathroom and master bathroom had outdated exhaust fans that were noisy and no longer moving enough air. We removed the old fans and installed the new units provided by the homeowner. Each fan was securely mounted, properly wired, and tested to ensure smooth and quiet operation.

WHAT WE DID:

  • Installed customer-supplied tape lighting in the kitchen to complete coverage where the previous section came up short
  • Removed an outdated exhaust fan in the guest bathroom and replaced it with a new customer-supplied fan
  • Removed the old exhaust fan in the master bathroom and installed a new customer-supplied fan
  • Tested all installations to confirm proper operation and safe electrical connections

THE RESULT:

The kitchen now has seamless, complete tape light coverage, enhancing the workspace and aesthetics. Both bathrooms benefit from new exhaust fans that provide quieter, more effective ventilation—helping reduce moisture and improve air quality.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How long did this job take?
The tape light installation and two fan replacements were completed in about 3 hours.

Do I need to supply my own fans or lights?
Not necessarily. Coharbor Electric can source quality lighting and ventilation products, but we’re also happy to install customer-supplied fixtures.

Why replace exhaust fans?
Old or noisy fans often fail to properly ventilate, leading to excess moisture, mold risk, and poor air quality. A new fan improves comfort and protects your home.

Can you help with other bathroom upgrades?
Yes, in addition to exhaust fans, we handle lighting upgrades and dedicated circuits for heated mirrors, spa tubs, and more.
