Our Ceiling Fan Services

Why You Should Hire an Electrician for Fan Installation
- Safety: Standard ceiling boxes are not rated to support the weight and movement of a ceiling fan — improperly supported fans can fall
- Proper wiring: Fans require specific wiring configurations, especially for separate fan/light controls
- Code compliance: Any new wiring must meet NEC code requirements
- Warranty protection: Many fans require professional installation to maintain the warranty
- Peace of mind: Knowing it's done right the first time
Our Ceiling Fan Installation Process
Wiring Assessment
We check whether a ceiling box and wiring already exist, whether a neutral wire is present for smart fans, and whether the box is fan-rated.
Box & Brace Upgrade
If no fan-rated box exists, we install an adjustable fan-rated brace kit from the attic or through the ceiling for secure, wobble-free mounting.
Fan Assembly & Wiring
We assemble the fan, make proper connections using wire nuts and strain relief, and verify correct direction switching and speed control.
Testing & Cleanup
We test all speeds and direction settings, install bulbs, and clean up completely before showing you how to operate your new fan.
