"Although I had used him successfull in the past, his work on my new house was a disappointment. He is very experienced but he didn't want to install my infrared heat lamp in the bathroom. I have a feeling he did not want to go into the attic (too physically demanding or perhaps he didnt want to shimm up a ladder that high). He also did not install the bathroom fan there either but did put one outlet in for my towel warmer. That work was fine. As far as replacing the ceiling fan with a beautiful contemporary fan from Minke Aire.. I was not in the room at the time but when I came back in the room, he was almost done. I asked him what this part was stuck in the styrofoam in the box (it was the donut shaped light diffuser screen that softens the uplighting), he said, "Oh, you don't need that, it's just an optional part. I didn't have the heart to have him disconnect the fan and put it on, so I had another electrician come and do it when I had other work done. He also set the heavy fan down on my comforter and the glass pointed circle or one of the rods from the fan cut a circle in the bedding. When we got to the basement, we had a lot of trouble installing a flourescent light under the suspended ceiling.. There was alreadyy a box there from a light over a pool table from previous owner and now that I use the area for office I wanted more lighting. I had to help him with the install and it was almost comical.between the two of us. He eventuall bolted the light to the suspended ceiling and joist and it was secure but it never looked good and it made noise. I had that work redone also. (He should have told me not to do that or suggested better options). Nothing earth shattering, but overall a disappointment. NOTE******************* The electrician I use now is very responsive and goes in the attic all the time (to hook up a light, run new lines or hook up the roof fan that I bought) or he bops over to the big box store for parts or whatever is needed to get the job done."

"So I bought two ceiling fans last summer, I started to install the first one ran into problems the mount did not line up, did not know how to fix, eventually put them in the closet. I looked on Angies list and found a near by A rated company with experience installing ceiling fans. I made the appointment at my convenience and at 9:00 A.M. this morning Scott and Miles arrived. You cannot be more on time than that! They got right to work, they knew what to do, removed the mud ring, alerted me to a a couple minor quality issues with the fans (2 missing thumb screws, 1 globe with an internal crack), cleaned up and were done in less than 2 hours. The fans work great. Outstanding punctuality, outstanding service, got the job done and off my list, and very affordable. I would absolutely hire Westborn Electric again, actually I would not try installing a ceiling fan again, I'd just hire them to do it."

"Mr. Antonelli and his assistant arrived on time and went straight to work in an effort to complete the outside work before the rain started. Unfortunately, they had to work in the rain for 15-30 minutes to complete the job, and had no complaints. They installed the Offset Riser and replaced the ceiling fan in under two hours and cleaned up everything. Very professional."

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

Many ceiling fan-rated electrical boxes tend to be made of metal. However, some electrical boxes may also be made of heavy-duty plastic that is reinforced with metal support structures. It may also have an attachment that connects directly to a ceiling joist. If you are ever ensure, consult with a licensed professional to get their insight on best practices and whether the installation is a safe one.

Yes, you can install a ceiling fan where a standard light fixture is, as the electrical wiring is often similar and may not need to be replaced. The most important step is to ensure the ceiling can support the fan's weight and motion. You will need to replace the existing light fixture's electrical box with a fan-rated electrical box, which is specifically designed to handle the extra weight and vibration. These boxes will be labeled as suitable for ceiling fan support and will indicate the maximum weight they can hold. Before you begin, also consider if you need an extension rod for a high ceiling or a special mount for an angled ceiling.

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.

Most ceiling fans have a lifespan of anywhere from five to 15 years or 10 years on average. Just how long your ceiling fan lasts depends on the quality of the parts, how much it’s used, and how well you maintain it. A fan with a weak motor that runs on the medium setting nonstop is likely to have a shorter lifespan compared to a fan with a powerful motor that runs on the slowest setting for air circulation.
