"Lloyd replaced 15 electrical receptacles that could no longer hold 2-prong electrical cords in place. He also replaced two bathroom exhaust fans that were 27 years old. No issues. We liked his work so much that we hope to hire Lloyd for a home lighting upgrade."
"Techs on Site: Uriel and Dan These guys were freakin awesome! I thought the price for work was fair comparative to the market. However, the Techs made it worth every penny. They were on time, work was done quickly, they made sure to clean up the site, and they were extremely friendly. They spoke with us to make sure the fans were being placed to our specifications before installing. They made sure to walk us through the remotes for the fans and made sure to show us that there were no balancing issues with the fans. For the troubleshooting/fix, we a few dead outlets, that we could not figure out the cause, Uriel found this issue was a GFI outlet (that seemed to work) that their meter found. If I ever need to hire a licensed electrician I will most definitely hire RK Electric and ask for the same techs, even if I had to wait longer for the work to be completed."

"Joe was professional, polite and approachable. He was able to do the installation of 2 ceiling fans two days after my request for service. He also had to remove the existing two fans. Both my new fans are working well."
"The team from Roth did a great job installing a new HVAC system in our home. Hanna, Tim, and Daniel were professional, speedy, knowledgeable, and great to work with."
"2 great guys showed up on time and were able to swap the lamp with a combo Light & Fan. They checked & swapped out the box to ensure the fan was secured."
For a 12x12 room, a fan between 36" and 50" will work, as it falls in the range for spaces up to 144 square feet. These size fans provide adequate air circulation and ensure a comfortable environment without being overpowering. Even better, they come in a broad range of styles, offering aesthetics and functionality, making them suitable choices for maintaining an ideal room temperature and enhancing overall comfort.
Coffered ceilings often come with additional embellishments and accessories, including tin panels, medallions, trim, molding, recessed lights, and finials. Whether you’re looking for a simple grid pattern or want an elaborate, decorative ceiling with all the bells and whistles, there are plenty of options to choose from.
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.
There’s no reason why you can’t install a ceiling fan anywhere in your home, such as in living rooms, offices, bedrooms, and dining areas. Most bathrooms already have ventilation and don’t need a ceiling fan. For safety purposes, avoid installing a ceiling fan where the blades will be less than eight feet from the floor, near bunk beds, or anywhere else they may hit nearby objects.
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.
