"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."

"Shelby was friendly, polite and professional. It was a pleasure to meet a young lady who is such a good skilled electrician. My mother and I were amazed with how quickly Shelby installed the ceiling fan. We are both happy with her work."

"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."

"He did an amazing job helping me find a replacement for the can lights that we had in the kitchen. We’ve had a problem with bees nesting inside the can lights, and he helped me find some beautiful flat LED lights with a nightlight feature that I’ve never had before!! He also installed a dimmer for the lights, and a small chandelier that we bought on Amazon! Kept everything neat and cleaned up after himself! Highly recommend him for your work"

"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."

"I went on Angie's List to find an electrician. On the list , he had the most reviews. I called him and received a tentative quote. I called 2 more electricians and called him right back. We scheduled a date. He came on time. He had to special order due to the fan's age. A few days later he came back and did the job. He had informed me that he had to pay extra to get the fan quickly. I offered to compensate; he REFUSED!. He stated a quote is a quote. I would use him again and recommend him highly to anyone seeking an electrician."

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

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 you’re replacing an old fixture with a ceiling fan, you usually won’t need a permit, but if your electrician runs new wiring for the fixture, you likely will need a permit. Building permits are necessary in most municipalities if you’re making changes to your electrical system, so even if you have partial wiring run to the area and need new wiring installed for added functionality, you’ll probably need a permit. Your electrician should be able to let you know if you need one, and they’ll typically file the paperwork for you.

Installing a ceiling fan where no wiring exists is a difficult and potentially dangerous job that should not be attempted as a DIY project. It is recommended to hire a certified electrician to build the necessary electrical infrastructure. In some areas, building codes require this work to be done by a professional to ensure safety and compliance. Due to the complexity, this type of installation is a significant job that could cost up to $2,000.

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. 

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.
