"I hired Landmark construction & energy crew for a 650 sq/ft. of living room addition. Before we hired them, we already had all the necessary plans on hand including all the secured building permits with the city. When it comes to workmanship and speed, I must admit that landmark construction was very fast while investing extra attention to perfection. All the teams of workers worked fast even when it came to fixes and adjustments. They replaced the wood floor with new engineered wood flooring, repainted the entire ceiling and one living room wall and blended new stucco on the exterior wall. The new addition required new foundation, framing, and window installation. We are thoroughly content with all the work that was completed by landmark construction & energy crew. 1) they made sure to cover everything all around the working area in order to prevent damages and extra work due to paint spots and dust from all the sanding. 2) They came to work on a daily basis and few times they skipped work BUT they made sure to confirm that 2 days ahead. This was very responsible from them to do. 3) Charlie the Project Manager was available and reached all the time. When he couldn’t talk or answered, he called within the hour. In regards to pricing… the price that we got from Landmark construction & energy crew was in the middle range. Charlie came over to the house several times to discuss about the details and the process of the project, and after that he start working on the estimate."

"I hired John Ford to patch cuts and holes in walls and a ceiling, all created when a plumber cut holes here and there looking for a leak. I needed the job done quickly since I had an assessor coming to the house for a ref. He swung by the day after I called, gave me a very reasonable quote and told me his background and experience before I even asked. We scheduled the job for two days later. The work was completed on time, and John did an excellent job – you’d never know it was patched, including the ceiling! He laid drop cloths before starting, and cleaned up afterward including vacuuming. While waiting for the mud on the patches to dry before the next step, he repaired a loose stairway handrail, and hung some racks for me in the kitchen.
John is very professional and concerned about doing the job right - he even used some special metal toggle bolts to hang the kitchen racks (instead of the plastic ones Ikea sold me) which he said would better support the heavy pans I wanted to hang, and explained why. The handrail is now screwed to studs, instead of nailed. Throughout the project, John talked to me about what he was doing and why, which I really liked.
John has many years experience in the construction industry and really knows what he is doing. He is very professional and concerned about doing the job right, and on time. I will definitely hire John again for other projects I am planning and some other fixes I need, and will recommend him to family and friends. I am thrilled to have found a great handyman, thanks to Angie's List.

"We did a small project with them to install wiring for a new ceiling fan. They were quick and did a great job. I appreciated that they tried to remove as little amount of sheet rock as they could to limit the amount of mess that was made. Overall great job,. Would hire again"

"Pete was very good fixing the problem. The pull chain broke off inside the unit. I took it apart and tried to fix it myself, but was not able to get to the unit with the chain....so much for being a home mechanic! Pete made one short stop here to get the unit apart. He didn't have a replacement part with him, and to save time I went to Fan Diego store for the replacement, and he installed it on another visit a few days later. Problem solved. He is very friendly and worked well. I am having him back soon to repair another ceiling fan that has quit working.

"I bought a 2 hour Angie's List deal hoping to get my outdoor lights repaired. I was hoping there would be enough time left to replace a broken ceiling fan as well. Mehran arrived on time and got to work right away diagnosing my outdoor lights. He came up with a plan to make them more efficient and pointed out potential problems to avoid. As soon as I pick up some supplies he'll put me on his schedule to complete that job. He then went right to work on replacing my ceiling fan. He was quick and cleaned up the mess from all the dust and put my room back to the way it was. He was very pleasant and professional. He finished within the two hour time frame so I did not have to pay any additional cost. I hope to be able to call Mehran soon so he can get started on replacing my outdoor lights."

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

Many ceiling fan mounts feature a design that can accommodate slight slopes by using a ball joint mechanism at the end of the downrod. If your ceiling has a steeper slope than your fan allows for, you can install a downrod that will allow your fan to safely hang below the slope.

Keeping dust off fans can keep them working optimally and help keep dust mites or bacteria from building up. Dust fans weekly with a duster, microfiber cloth, old pillowcase, or vacuum attachment. You can also try spraying a clean fan with a store-bought dust-repellent product or making a DIY dust-repellent with water and a small amount of liquid fabric softener mixed in.

If you’re replacing an old fixture with a ceiling fan, you usually won’t need a permit, but if your electrician runs new wiring for the fixture, you likely will need a permit. Building permits are necessary in most municipalities if you’re making changes to your electrical system, so even if you have partial wiring run to the area and need new wiring installed for added functionality, you’ll probably need a permit. Your electrician should be able to let you know if you need one, and they’ll typically file the paperwork for you.

The direction you want your ceiling fan to move in depends on the season you’re in. During summer, you want it to move counterclockwise to produce a cooling downdraft. During winter, you want it to move clockwise to circulate warm air throughout the room.

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.
