"I needed several plugs fixed/moved, a baseboard heater re-connected and a stairwell light hung properly and they took care of all of it fast and for a great price. I would definitely hire them again!"

"Klaus was the only pro who contacted us after 2 requests made in Angi. The job was at our Ocean City, Maryland beach condo that we were visiting for the weekend. Klaus responded quickly by phone and was able to come over the next day while we were still in town and listen to what we wanted done and talk us through how he would handle our project -- all without charging a fee. The following Monday after we returned to our DC metro area house, he emailed us a reasonable estimate and did not even require a partial payment upon our acceptance of his offer. Even though we would not be present for the installation, we felt comfortable with Klaus completing the job according to our wishes. He picked up the fans we had ordered at a local distributor and included the cost in our final bill. He kept in touch by phone during the installation and resolved a few unforeseen issues on the spot. Since we were not able to come back to inspect the work for a couple weeks, we offered to make a partial payment, but Klaus refused. It was refreshing to deal with a contractor based on mutual trust and get the desired result. A minor concern was that one of the fans had a slight wobble caused by a couple loose screws on the mounting stem, but we were able to quickly rectify the problem ourselves. We highly recommend Klaus due to his reliability, trustworthiness and completion of the project to our satisfaction."

"Will installed a ceiling fan in a cathedral ceiling at our house. He arrived on time and installed the ceiling fan.  We discussed options (such as wall switches vs remote, etc) and he seemed very knowledgeable in his field.  I found his pricing reasonable, and Will easy to work with.  I'd use Will again."

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

Ceiling fans require periodic cleaning of blades to avoid dust accumulation, checking screws and connections for firmness, and occasional lubrication for components, keeping the fan running smoothly and quietly over time.

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.

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.

The more surface area that a ceiling fan blade has, the more effective it will be at producing airflow. Therefore, a longer ceiling fan blade is the better option if you’re looking for more wind. However, a longer blade will consume more energy than a shorter blade.

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.
