"Larry was great. He managed to troubleshoot an ongoing issue in our basement, and fixed some outdoor lighting problems -- which turned out to be related to the basement's electrical issues. I'd absolutely hire DC Electric for any work I may need in the future."

"Anthony was friendly and extremely knowledgeable! He did a great job installing our ceiling fans. I think that overall the pricing is high, but I needed someone to be at my house at a certain day and time and electrical experts can guarantee that. They give you lots of notice that they are coming, good customer service."

"Frank went above and beyond. He and his crew were courteous and respectful. They did everything! All the knob and tube wiring was removed. He found a lot of issues with the wiring and fixed it all. He also put in additional outlets and lighting. I would recommend him for any kind of electrical work."

"Unique circumstances but perfect execution even when the requirements kept changing. Chris R. and Zach dealt with, and knew how to handle, each one. Can’t ask for more than that. A church, with a old floodlight on a 16’ ceiling; another elevated floodlight precariously set up between pews; custom temporary adjustments to main panel to find space for two 240v cables for a floor sander; updated outlet; a genius custom dimmer switch for floodlight that saved necessary $; and I still can’t believe how long Chris R. spent bringing back the brass luster of the ceiling flood that had old excess paint all over it. That was so above and beyond. Thank you gentleman. Our church looks forward to working with you again!(and for our home). And all from a reference from our son in Burgy who had a similar experience."

"Kyle showed up on time and , completed his work, and cleaned up after he was done. Had an issue with the height of my light fixture and he showed up the very next day, made necessary changes, and everything works well. While he was here he looked at a smoke alarm issue that I was having and he corrected that too. Very professional and clear in his explanations of work to be completed. I would definitely hire him again"

"Jason and his team installed recessed lighting throughout my home and rewired my kitchen during a renovation. They were on time and worked efficiently. Cleaned up after themselves too! They didn't leave dust and debris everywhere. Very impressed and will hire again."

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

Ceiling fans are very often worth the investment because they improve comfort in your living space and help reduce utility bills. In the late spring and early fall—and even in the summer in some areas—homeowners with ceiling fans can often get away with open windows and fans, which can cut down on cooling bills and also reduce wear and tear on the HVAC system. Over time, ceiling fans can pay for themselves by saving you money on electric bills and air conditioner repair and maintenance.

The most efficient ceiling fan height is 8 to 9 feet from the floor to the fan blades. For ceilings higher than 9 feet, a downrod can be used to lower the fan to the optimal height. This positioning ensures adequate air circulation and maximizes the cooling effect. Remember, fans should be installed at least 7 feet above the floor for safety.

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.

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.

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.
