"It couldn't have been better. Ewald and his son did an outstanding job replacing a ceiling fan plus installing a down light. Cost was very reasonable. It's hard to find trades with integrity and they just don't come better than this firm. Not only that they are really nice people. I will definitely go to them in the future."

"Nick was late to our first appt, but he rescheduled his next day to accommodate me first thing.  He asked me what I wanted to do and thoroughly explained everything he would need to do to complete the job and made nice recommendations.  On the first floor he had to cut out pieces of dry wall to be able to run wire because there was no existing fixture.  It was very cleanly done w/ minimal cut ins.  Though they don't do drywall repair they put the cut out pieces back in place so there weren't holes in the ceiling and wall.  The 2nd story fixtures they were able to install with no intrusion.  
They even checked and changed a couple lights out in the kitchen at no extra cost.  They worked very cleanly and were friendly and professional and their price was very fair and competitive.  I would definitely recommend them and will use them in the future.

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can install a ceiling fan where a standard light fixture is, as the electrical wiring is often similar and may not need to be replaced. The most important step is to ensure the ceiling can support the fan's weight and motion. You will need to replace the existing light fixture's electrical box with a fan-rated electrical box, which is specifically designed to handle the extra weight and vibration. These boxes will be labeled as suitable for ceiling fan support and will indicate the maximum weight they can hold. Before you begin, also consider if you need an extension rod for a high ceiling or a special mount for an angled ceiling.

To determine if your ceiling box can support a fan, you must check if it is specifically fan-rated. Manufacturers are required to indicate this on the box itself. You may need to remove the existing light fixture to look inside the ceiling box for an inscription stating it is rated for fan use. If you do not see this confirmation, the box is likely not strong enough and must be replaced with a fan-rated junction box. For a proper and safe installation, you should also use a fan brace to secure the new box between the ceiling joists, which provides the necessary support for the fan's weight and motion.

If the fan doesn’t have a switch, connect the white wire from the ceiling to the white wire from the fan; connect the green wire to the ground wire; connect both black wires; and connect both blue wires. If yours has a switch, the white and green wires are connected the same way. However, connect the ceiling’s red wire to the light’s black wire and the ceiling’s black wire to the fan’s black wire. 

There are several telltale signs to let you know that your ceiling fan needs servicing or replacement. For instance, if it’s wobbling, rotating too slowly, or if your ceiling fan is making noise such as squeaks, buzzes, and thumps, it’s time to have it looked at by a professional. Not only may it indicate a potential problem with the fan itself, but it could also signal a red flag that it’s improperly assembled or there’s an issue with the wiring.

The direction your ceiling fan spins helps create comfortable airflow in your home and can also help cut down on energy costs. 

During summer, your ceiling fan should spin counterclockwise. This will push cooler air downward in a column and help lower your room’s air temperature. In the winter, set your ceiling fan to spin clockwise and at the lowest speed setting. This will pull cool air upwards, displacing the warm air that pools towards the top of your ceiling and bringing it down towards the floor.
