"I recently hired Luminous and Luis Gil to install new outlets, a ceiling fan, and eight recessed lights in my home, and I couldn?t be happier with the results. Luis was professional from start to finish he showed up on time, walked me through the plan, and made sure every detail was done right. The recessed lights completely transformed the room, the outlets were installed exactly where I needed them, and the ceiling fan works perfectly. What impressed me most was how clean and efficient they worked; everything was tested, tidied up, and ready to use before they left. You can tell Luis takes pride in his craft the finished work looks like it?s always been there. Highly recommend Luminous and Luis Gil if you?re looking for someone reliable, skilled, and easy to work with. I?ll definitely be calling them again for future projects."

"in the beginning i got 3 quotes, his was the highest but I like him because i felt he is more knowledgeable and personable. He came the next day after we had an agreement. the work was good except that when he laid the landscape wire in my yard I asked him to run it next to my retaining wall to better hide it. However, that was not done. He completed 95% of the work and told me he would come back and complete the work. A week later he finally completed the project. M&M basically does great work."

"The gentleman who came to do the work (Rudy) was friendly and punctual, but just didn't seem very detail-oriented or professional, and he didn't come to the job very prepared.
He came to install a skylight tube.  He went up into our attic and started working - and he cut a hole in our ceiling down from the attic without *measuring the dimensions* first.  After punching a big hole in the ceiling he realized he couldn't put the skylight tube there because there were framing members in the attic that restricted his access, and the skylight tube wouldn't fit but he'd already made a big hole there.  So then he asked to borrow our tape measure because he hadn't brought his with him (?!?).  After trying for quite some time to shave away the beams in the attic and make the skylight tube fit, he gave up and cut away the attic beams.   Finally he could have room for the skylight tube.  Except then he had to brace the beams in the attic to reinforce the area he'd cut away.  But he didn't have any materials in his truck that would work.  So again he asked if we had anything in the house he could use.  We scrounged around down in our garage and found some pressure-treated 2-by-4's that he cut & nailed & used to brace the beam cutout in the attic.  By his own admission they were the wrong size and the wrong material, but that's what he used.  When he was finished with the skylight tube installation, the area of the ceiling around the tube opening was cracked, smudged, gouged, and all-around pretty ugly.  We had no choice but to leave it that way until next time we repaint the ceiling, so it still looks bad even today. 
He also installed a solar attic fan, and he gave us a discount after all the adventures with the skylight tube.  A discount was nice, but I wouldn't hire him again.  Now I'm considering bringing in another contractor to repair the damage he did in the attic.

"We went to Gallagher showroom. Jack G. came to our home to survey the job. Bob (plumber) and Mark (lead carpenter) were on time and very professional. We are happy with our fully-renovated full bath. We will use this contractor for future renovations."

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

For a 12x12 room, a fan between 36" and 50" will work, as it falls in the range for spaces up to 144 square feet. These size fans provide adequate air circulation and ensure a comfortable environment without being overpowering. Even better, they come in a broad range of styles, offering aesthetics and functionality, making them suitable choices for maintaining an ideal room temperature and enhancing overall comfort.

There are many types of ceiling fans available, each designed for different spaces and needs. Standard ceiling fans are the most common type and work well in most rooms. Low-profile ceiling fans are better suited for rooms with low ceilings. Smart ceiling fans can be controlled with a smartphone or voice commands. For larger spaces with ceilings between 10 and 25 feet high, large ceiling fans are ideal. Dual-motor fans have two motors to produce more airflow in multiple directions. You can also find energy-efficient or Energy-Star models that can be up to 60% more efficient, as well as fans with built-in lights or retractable blades.

If your home already has wires for a ceiling fan (and optional light kit), then it’s quite safe to wire and install it yourself. Always be very careful to shut off the power before you begin, and confirm that the power is safely off with a non-contact voltage tester before touching anything. It’s also highly recommended to use eye protection, rubberized gloves, and tools with rubber handles to keep yourself safe from electric shock.

Installing a ceiling fan where no wiring exists is a difficult and potentially dangerous job that should not be attempted as a DIY project. It is recommended to hire a certified electrician to build the necessary electrical infrastructure. In some areas, building codes require this work to be done by a professional to ensure safety and compliance. Due to the complexity, this type of installation is a significant job that could cost up to $2,000.

Whether you can install a ceiling fan yourself depends on if you're replacing an existing fixture or installing one where no wiring exists. If you are replacing an existing fan, an experienced DIYer may be able to do the job, which can save on labor costs. This work typically doesn’t require a permit, but there’s always a safety risk when dealing with electrical components, so hiring a pro is still a good idea, especially if you aren't handy. Keep in mind you may need a special ladder for high or vaulted ceilings. However, if you are installing a new ceiling fan where there is no current fixture, you must hire a licensed electrician. In most areas, it is required by law that a professional runs new wiring and pulls the necessary permits. Attempting to install wiring yourself can be dangerous and a code violation.
