I need to run some electrical wire in a ceiling for a fan. (currently it is simply stapled to the ceiling and plugged into the wall.) The technique, as I have seen it described, is to cut two holes--one in the wall and one in the ceiling--where the wall meets the ceiling. This will allow access to both drill the necessary hole for the wire and pull the wire. Patching the hole in the wall seems pretty straight forward. But what about patching the hole in the ceiling? It is a textured type of ceiling. Can I simply use the existing piece that will be cut out for a patch?
Thanks for you help.
