"I hired them to install three exterior lights, by my front and back doors & garage. I had the fixtures, just needed someone to install. Good work at a reasonable price. I subsequently hired them to fix some wood rot by my garage door. Ivan cams in, cut out and replaced the bad pieces, caulked and repainted. Excellent job!"

"I contacted dozens of contractors and electricians about replacing the ceiling fan on my 20 ft tall ceiling. Some gave me expensive quotes for $2-3K and didn't have the equipment to do the job. Some showed up with ladders not tall enough to even touch to fan. Jack came out to look at the job, explained why he planned to do it with scaffolding and went above and beyond to recruit a painter to help path a ceiling crack while he is doing the fan. The crew was professional and efficient. They know what they were doing. If you have a tricky job like ours, you can't go wrong with Jack."

"Mohamed got 1 of the 2 jobs done. I hired them to do (2) Fan installations. Upon starting, he found that one job couldn't be done due to old raggedy cloth wiring. He provided details on why it would be hazardous to install this modern fan on old wiring and we agreed on his assessment. He was honest, fair priced and cleaned up behind himself. I would use him again."

"From installing metal conduit, grounding all outlets, heighten electrical service pole, and installing new outlets- just to name a few details of this big project- they did it all and a great job! They were respectful of my property, insightful, and knowledgeable about residential electrical work. I had 3 other bidders for the job and I choose GRA because they actually took the time to assess the property and make recommendations. Additionally, they pointed out other electrical concerns that the other bidders did not notice. GRAâ s price was also the most affordable. They understood the job/upgrades needed and what I was looking for. Electrical safety was my top priority and it was great to work with a company with the same goal. The other bidders/competitors were recommending leaving outlets â ungroundedâ but update to GFCI and label as â no groundâ for close to the same price as GRA that was installing metal conduit and grounding every outlet throughout the home. It really shows GRAâ s commitment to safety and the project at hand. I highly recommend GRA for your residential home needs! There is no project too big or too small! They did a fantastic job !"

"Victor was great to work with start to finish. Shared his plan and took pictures along the way to explain what he was doing. Very reasonably priced, punctual and professional. I didn’t like the original bathroom fan I had chosen and Victor came back to install a different one and gave me a great discount which I appreciated. Looking forward to working with him again for my electric needs at the house!"

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

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. 

No, a ceiling fan doesn’t have to be wired to a switch, but it’s often more convenient. You can use the included pull chain if your ceiling isn’t too high or install a remote module later, as they are a cheap, easy-to-install option that’ll let you control both the fan and light fixture.

To convert a ceiling fan to wireless, you’ll need to install a canopy module to access the lighting and fan controls. Many options are available, all of which help you control specific elements of your ceiling fan, so you have plenty of choices depending on your needs.

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.

Essential tools for ceiling fan installation include a ladder, screwdriver, pliers, wire strippers, and a circuit tester. If the ceiling is angled or features unique configurations, ensure the availability of a compatible mounting bracket.
