"Do you know how hard it is to find a vendor in Fairfield County that does great work and is very fairly priced? I cannot say enough great things about Jason and his company. I got four prices for installing ceiling fans and Jason beat them all by about $500. Moreover, he is as first class as they come and his work is very neat and meticulous. Do not waste your time shopping around. Jason is your guy. You will not regret it."

They are a pleasure to deal with. They are professional, very knowledgeable, courteous, prompt, neat and complete jobs quickly and on schedule. I would hire them without question again, and recommend them to anyone."

"Freddie, was fabulas! He assembled the ceiling fan and hooked it up. He even helped us with a loose switch cover. We have plans to call him back with some other jobs that need to be done around the house. I thought his prices were good. Thank you Freddie."

"I am very pleased with the excellent quality of the work by Mikell Electric. Spencer installed a new fuse box, outside fixtures plus wiring. He was courteous, respectful and prompt. He took the time to explain the process, timeframe and answered all of my questions. I have already had him back again for another electrical project."

"Dave and his associate, Milton, were great. I hired them with the "electrician for a day" package on Angie's List, and it was worth every penny. They worked efficiently and yet took the time to answer my questions and explain things. My toddler was running around the whole time, and they were both sweet with her and patient. They used tarps to make sure no dust, etc. got on my stuff, and cleaned up as they went--I'd truly never have guessed they had been there! A few minor snafus came up, and they handled them with confidence and skill--in fact, we had made some mistakes when trying to install the family room fan, and I'm glad they were here because they were able to fix them so the installation was safe. Thanks to the deal on Angie's List, the cost ended up being much more reasonable than other quotes I had gotten (one electrician wanted almost $400 just to change three plugs to GFCI). Dave showed me the receipt for some additional parts he had had to purchase, and I appreciated the transparency. I am already planning to have them come back out for some other projects I have in the near future. I had the hardest time getting some electricians to even call me back, so I'm relieved I have some quality electricians I can call in future."

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

Many ceiling fan-rated electrical boxes tend to be made of metal. However, some electrical boxes may also be made of heavy-duty plastic that is reinforced with metal support structures. It may also have an attachment that connects directly to a ceiling joist. If you are ever ensure, consult with a licensed professional to get their insight on best practices and whether the installation is a safe one.

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.

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.

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 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.
