"I could not be happier with the final product! The first pic is the old bathroom from the 60s when the house was built. The rest are the final rebuild and it looks great. I would highly recommend VMK Remodeling for any project that you might have. I am also going to get a bid on redoing the deck on the back of the house as Vince's company does decks as well! Thanks to his great crew as well, great people to work with."

"We called Anytime Electric to fix a ceiling fan we had up (if possible) or to replace with a new one if needed. They gave us the option of both and were very honest about not being able to completely fix the problem due to how it was originally installed. We decided to have them install the new one and very much appreciated their honesty. Fan is up and working great !!! Eric and his team are top notch and they will be our first call next time we need a ceiling fan installed or any other electrical work !"

"We found Good Neighbors through Angie's List in January.   They had outstanding recommendations from previous customers on the website and we are a very happy and very satisfied customer. 
We had our 30 year old master bathroom gutted and we replaced everything.  Good Neighbors installed walls, ceiling, new tile floor, new cabinets, dual sinks, mirrors and replaced the old bathtub with an amazing, custom built, tiled shower.
Steve, our first Good Neighbors contact and co-owner was on time, polite, knew the business of remodeling and was accurate with his estimate. 
Tom, the other co-owner and in charge of construction contacted us and explained the construction process.  He addressed the problems we would encounter (dust, noise and storage of materials in our garage).   Tom made us very aware of what was going to happen over the next 5 weeks, step by step.   
The project manager, Jeff,  was the most polite man we have ever met.   His associate Caleb was every bit as friendly.   Every day they provided an explanation of what was going to occur that day and again they made every effort to contain the inevitable dust and the noise. 
The daily preparation and clean up was impressive.   Every morning they laid canvas on the stairs, the hallway and the bedroom floor to keep the carpets clean.  Every evening, the bathroom and adjoining bedroom were vacuumed, the mess cleaned up and the tools were stacked.    Then they folded a put away the canvas and moved outside to clean up the construction debris from saws, tile cutters, etc.     I have to tell everybody - We were impressed with the cleanup. 
The job grew from the original estimate as we had them add crown molding and repaint the master bedroom.
Regarding a recommendation,  I would not hesitate to have them do our next project and they probably will.

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Fan power is measured by CFM, or cubic feet per minute. For every 1,000 feet of square footage in your attic, you need a minimum of 700 CFM. Steeper roofs may need larger fans or about 840 CFM.  You can figure the size of attic fan you need by multiplying the square footage of your attic floor by 0.7. (multiply by 1.2 for a steep roof and 1.15 for a dark roof). That number is the CFM required for your fan to run efficiently.

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. 

There are many types of ceiling fans, from self-automated smart ceiling fans to outdoor ceiling fans that provide additional comfort to your patio. What you choose all comes down to function and personal taste.

Consider your ceiling height when selecting a ceiling fan. Rooms with ceilings under eight feet high will do well with low-profile ceiling fans, also known as flush-mount or hugger ceiling fans. If your home has cathedral ceilings or ceilings between 10 and 25 feet high, you’ll need a large ceiling fan with a heavy-duty motor to get adequate air circulation.
