"Paul was fantastic! He did an excellent job installing 4 ceiling fans for us. He kept me updated on what steps were needed in each location (e.g., removing existing track lighting, installing a fan box, extending the wiring, etc.) and worked efficiently. Paul was also kind enough to explain things to me, which I really appreciated. He has been in the field for a long time and is a wealth of knowledge. I will definitely reach out to Paul for future projects involving electrical!"

"Chris was extremely professional and qualified and very quick on the job and knew exactly what he was doing. Extremely polite gentleman, and went beyond expectations; worth every penny. Removed my broken ceiling fan and put together and installed my new one in incredibly rapid time. Was very informative and explained everything very clearly to me as I am a bit of a Luddite when it comes to electrician projects. My new ceiling fan is working fantastically. 10/10"

"I was having a hard time finding an electrician. None of them would respond to me. I finally used home advisor and Joseph Janusâ name came up. He got in touch with me right away and was able to come out when I needed him. He did an amazing job fixing my light switches and asked if I needed anything else fixed. I told him that the light in the garage door wasnâ t working and that the light bulb on the garage ceiling needed to be changed. He fixed them for me and even surprised me by fixing the door knob on my door to the garage which was loose. He also took the time to show me how to open my garage door without the garage door opener in the event that the power goes out again. The price was also very reasonable . I canâ t say enough good things about Joseph Janus. I will definitely use him again and would recommend him to anyone!"

Ceiling Fans FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

When choosing a mounting bracket, you have the option between flush mounts and downrod mounts. Flush mounts are the better option for low ceilings as they feature a lower profile. Downrod mounts are the optimal choice for rooms with high ceilings as they offer a pole that adjusts the height of the fan.

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.

Generally, a ceiling fan should be mounted at least seven feet from the floor in the center of your room with a wall clearance of around 18 inches. If your ceiling is more than eight feet high, it’s recommended by experts that the ceiling fan be mounted around eight to nine feet from the ground. This helps ensure a better quality of circulated airflow.
