"Jeff went about his business in a courteous and professional manner! Jeff installed the outlet's that I wanted to eliminate a power strip that had been living under my bed for years! He also installed outlet's for my pc and amp. Then he went into the living room and put in outlet's in back of the entertainment center and couch. My wife and I were very pleased!"

"Brian is highly skilled, creative, attention to detail problem solverâ he remodeled my 1980â s bathroom beautifully, bringing me into the 21st century! Love new flooring, recessed lighting, sleek fan, modern fixtures (bath/sink faucets), painted existing vanity, installed new toilet, new cabinet, new radiator cover! What a difference! Love my â new to meâ bathroom! Thanks Brian! PS: liked the transformation so much that I hired Brian to remodel second bathroom like first one but had him remove old tub & install gorgeous walk-in shower w glass doors! Very very happy!"

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

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.

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. 

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.

If you’re removing a ceiling fan without visible screws, start by locating the fan canopy—a round cover placed above the fan blades and motor. There should be a thin ring that can be turned counterclockwise to remove the canopy and reveal the screws. After unscrewing the fan, you can disconnect the wires and remove the entire fan from the mounting hardware. For safety, make sure the fan switch is turned off before you remove the canopy. It may be easier to remove the fan blades first, too.

Hiring an electrician to install a new ceiling fan may be the best course of action. Installing a ceiling fan requires basic electrical and mechanical knowledge. It also requires holding it up with one hand and in an awkward position, making the installation even more difficult. If you’re uncomfortable with these circumstances, your best bet is to hire a professional.
