"I thought ceiling was 15ft height, installers measured it as 18ft. they had leave to rent a ladder, install price went from $169 to $280, ($45 for ladder rental, $111 additional for labor). Not sure I got a fair deal."
"Very communicative, clean work, beautiful job adding lighting and am outlet to our deck, and making recommendations for wonderful task lighting that he installed in my sewing room. Switched out old smoke detectors for updated hard wired and added to a high vaulted ceiling where needed. Will be using Nathan in the future for updating existing lighting in our kitchen. Very happy with his work!!"
"Paul was very thorough and knowledgeable. Provided superior customer service and did an excellent job installing ceiling tile. I have been looking for a GOOD handyman for some time....finally found one. Can't say enough good things about Paul."
"Words cannot express how happy I am that I found Matt to help me paint my new home! Not only did he finish the job of painting three rooms ceilings, trim, and walls in less than two days, he quoted me an extremely fair price and he did an amazing job. Matt took pride in his work, wanted to make sure everything was perfect, and that I was one hundred percent satisfied with the job. I have now found my handy man for life! If you need any work done in your home (because he does a lot more than paint) I highly recommend him. Thank you so much Matt for everything!"
"These gentlemen installed 2 lights/fans, fixed a cabinet door, hung a cabinet, installed a towel rack, and found a leak coming from a shower drain that no one has ever been able to locate. I was very impressed with their skills and will definitely call them again."
"Technician STEVE arrived on time and was friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. Upon removing the old light fixture he determined that the replacement fan unit was larger than the unit being replaced. Unfazed he removed (after some effort due to the age of the unit) the old fan, enlarged the opening, and installed the new fan and light fixture. Despite the unforeseen extra work, he still completed the job within 2 hours. Despite the extra work required, his fee was still less than the other bids received. I highly recommend this company."
"Brian did such an amazing job! We hired him on two occasions. The first was to install a faucet in our new home and about a year later Brian helped us install an in-wall AC unit in our sunroom after our original one died unexpectedly. He showed up on time, is reasonably priced and seems very knowledgeable and experienced in home improvement and maintenance issues. He also has a great attitude. Would definitely use him again and you should too!"
"Steven’s work is phenomenal! Very responsive, prepared, quick and did a great job mounting my tv. He even patched holes that were in my wall. Definitely exceeded my expectations. I will definitely utilize his services again."
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.
To convert a ceiling fan to wireless, you’ll need to install a canopy module to access the lighting and fan controls. Many options are available, all of which help you control specific elements of your ceiling fan, so you have plenty of choices depending on your needs.
Ceiling fans offer multiple benefits for your home. They improve air circulation to prevent stagnant environments and provide cost-effective temperature control, which can reduce reliance on your HVAC system and help lower utility bills. In addition to their functional advantages, ceiling fans can also enhance a room's aesthetic appeal with features like built-in lighting and modern styling.
Ceiling fans can be a great way to cool your home without the expensive utility bill of running an air conditioner. Plus, ceiling fans can sometimes run in both directions, pushing hot air down in winter and pulling cold air up in summer. With that said, air conditioning might be the only thing that helps if you live in a very warm climate.
The direction your ceiling fan spins helps create comfortable airflow in your home and can also help cut down on energy costs.
During summer, your ceiling fan should spin counterclockwise. This will push cooler air downward in a column and help lower your room’s air temperature. In the winter, set your ceiling fan to spin clockwise and at the lowest speed setting. This will pull cool air upwards, displacing the warm air that pools towards the top of your ceiling and bringing it down towards the floor.
