"Ted and Robert arrived, got right t to it and within a few hours we had 2 ceiling fans installed, one which had no existing light so it was a more involved project. They were professional and stuck to their original quote! To say we are impressed is an understatement. We strongly recommend using Connole Electric."

"Ted and his crew were very neat, tidy and professional. He was able to find a carpenter to do some widening of the fan opening in a single day. The installation of the fan was flawless. It works and looks fantastic. I did experience some sticker shock but I believe that was because of the added cost of needing a bigger opening for the fan I purchased and the need to sub-contract a carpenter. I highly recommend them."

"I was in touch with Phil (owner) of Home Facelifters the very end of April.  We made and appointment for a free estimate, within two business days he was at my home.  I wanted my living room, hall and kitchen walls painted.  Along with the ceiling which has a large skylight, doors leading into 3 other rooms and all the trim.  Phil's estimate was very reasonable especially considering the height of my ceiling and the troublesome skylight that had to be dealt with.  He was extremely helpful with picking the colors.  I was deciding between two shades of green for the walls, by the time he left I had picked One.  It would not have occured to me to change the color of the trim and doors but he suggested that I do and I LOVE it.  His workers Nate and Tom show up right on time.  Both were very hard workers and considerate of covering my carpeting, flooring, cabinets and exposed furniture. They finished the job on May 8th at noon.  All of my furniture was put back where it belonged and they even helped me to hang a large wall mirror and shelving.  I couldn't believe what a beautiful painting job they did.  It looked better than it did when I bought my condo Brand New 13 years ago.  Hire again................"in a heartbeat".

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

Hiring an electrician to install a new ceiling fan may be the best course of action. Installing a ceiling fan requires basic electrical and mechanical knowledge. It also requires holding it up with one hand and in an awkward position, making the installation even more difficult. If you’re uncomfortable with these circumstances, your best bet is to hire a professional.

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.

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.

The number of blades for your fan poses both advantages and disadvantages. Typically, the more blades on a fan, the better the air distribution and cooling effect, but this also means that your fan will have more wear on its motor. For small rooms, three-blade fans should work fine. For larger areas like living rooms, four or five-blade fans might be the better option. 

A typical fan installation takes between two and six hours. The exact timeframe can be influenced by factors such as the home's structure, existing electrical characteristics, ease of attic access, and whether complex wiring or additional attic ventilation work is required.
