Hey Guys. I'm no stranger to pulling and dropping wire. But this thread has me wondering a bit about dropping wire to basements. See, I live in Texas and where basements are few and far between. In fact, they're non existent. So walk me through the process fellas. Any tips or pointers? I'm moving to Nashville in a few months so I wanna know what to expect.

No clue what it's like in Texas, but having worked in a few homes with no basement here in Winnipeg, they usually have a crawl space, or an attic.

Drop lines into crawl space, more or less same as basement, just smaller.

Attic can be a bit difficult (atleast for me personally) as you're going up instead (or down from the attic)
