"Mr. John Gambino was fast, professional and priced fair. He attained a permit and checked bathroom fan install for my home inspection, everything from start to finish in a week. He is very knowledgeable and so so so kind. A trustworthy stand up man. I recommend him %200 to anyone looking for the job to get done right! I had two prior people scam me out of my money and push my renovations back 3 months for the same job Mr. Gambino did, starting the next day and completely done & inspected by the next week. Thank you so much Mr. Gambino! I will be using him for any services moving forward."
"Awesome electricians! They installed two new bathroom exhaust fans in my bathrooms up stairs, vented them through the wall and installed replacement switches for the fans. They did excellent work! I recommended them to my neighbors!"
"Called Justin the owner at about 10 or 10:30 on Friday Jan 13 and his brother installed a replacement electric baseboard heating unit by 10:30 on Saturday January 14 for only a nominal extra charge for Saturday. Devon his brother could not have been nicer and more professional and insured that the rest of the wiring for the entire house was fine including the extensive wiring for baseboard heat throughout the house. I intend to have them come replace te rest of the units that need replacing"
"I hired them to install a bathroom exhaust fan. They got the job right, quickly, and for a lower cost than another contractor quoted. I’d recommend them to others and will look to them for future projects."

"I had used this company before for a kitchen counter installation. I was satisfied with the work and price. This time even though the technician know I wanted an electrical outlet put in, he came without any of the necessary parts. So, I paid for him to go to Home Depot to get the materials. This took an hour. I could have gone and gotten the materials myself had I known he wouldn't have what he needed. When you make the appointment, you are told you will have to pay for the time it takes the technician to get what he needs. But, I just assumed since he knew what I wanted done, that he would come with the parts."

Bathroom Fan Installation FAQs, answered by experts
There are many types of ceiling fans available, each designed for different spaces and needs. Standard ceiling fans are the most common type and work well in most rooms. Low-profile ceiling fans are better suited for rooms with low ceilings. Smart ceiling fans can be controlled with a smartphone or voice commands. For larger spaces with ceilings between 10 and 25 feet high, large ceiling fans are ideal. Dual-motor fans have two motors to produce more airflow in multiple directions. You can also find energy-efficient or Energy-Star models that can be up to 60% more efficient, as well as fans with built-in lights or retractable blades.
The direction you want your ceiling fan to move in depends on the season you’re in. During summer, you want it to move counterclockwise to produce a cooling downdraft. During winter, you want it to move clockwise to circulate warm air throughout the room.
Fan power is measured by CFM, or cubic feet per minute. For every 1,000 feet of square footage in your attic, you need a minimum of 700 CFM. Steeper roofs may need larger fans or about 840 CFM. You can figure the size of attic fan you need by multiplying the square footage of your attic floor by 0.7. (multiply by 1.2 for a steep roof and 1.15 for a dark roof). That number is the CFM required for your fan to run efficiently.
Most people describe the sound of an unbalanced ceiling fan as a buzzing or grinding noise. This is caused by the parts of the fan rubbing or rattling against each other as the blades spin. However, a wobbling fan can also make squeaking, rattling, or thumping sounds, depending on the severity of the balance issue.
The number of blades for your fan poses both advantages and disadvantages. Typically, the more blades on a fan, the better the air distribution and cooling effect, but this also means that your fan will have more wear on its motor. For small rooms, three-blade fans should work fine. For larger areas like living rooms, four or five-blade fans might be the better option.
