Bathroom Electrical Rough-In Services
Lighting, fans, outlets, and switches planned for the finished room
Bathroom electrical work is small in volume but critical for comfort. We plan vanity lighting, sconces, pot lights, switches, dimmers, exhaust fan wiring, and GFCI-protected outlets so the finished bathroom works without adjustments later.
The rough-in is coordinated with the bathroom layout, vanity height, mirror size, and tile so light placement looks right when the finishing is done.
Vanity and mirror lighting
Sconces, vanity bars, pot lights, and mirror lighting placed for clean, flattering bathroom light.
Exhaust fans
Bathroom fans wired and vented for proper airflow, controlled by switches, dimmers, or humidity sensors.
GFCI outlets
GFCI-protected outlets at vanity heights and locations that meet code and serve daily use.
Switches and dimmers
Switches, dimmers, timers, and three-way controls planned for clean wall plates and easy use.
Planned wired and ready for finishing

Bathroom Electrical Rough-In Questions in Ottawa
Answers to common questions Ottawa homeowners ask about bathroom electrical rough-in work.
What is included in bathroom electrical rough-in?
Lighting, switches, dimmers, exhaust fan wiring, GFCI outlets, and any specialty wiring such as heated floors or in-mirror lights are usually included in a bathroom rough-in.
Are all bathroom outlets GFCI-protected?
Yes. Bathroom outlets must be GFCI-protected to meet code. We confirm protection during rough-in and final connection.
Can you wire heated bathroom floors?
Yes. Heated floor systems require a dedicated circuit, a thermostat location, and a sensor wire under the tile. We coordinate that during rough-in.
Do exhaust fans need to vent outside?
Yes. Bathroom exhaust fans should vent to the exterior, not into an attic or wall cavity, to avoid moisture problems.
