"After calling several Electrician companies, finally signed up on Angie's list (first good thing). Reached out to Tommy and was responded to very quickly. Made arrangements for him to checkout our needs within the next day or so, and scheduled the fix within a couple days of that. Installed ceiling fan, used his contacts at the store we purchased the fan from to find the remote that went with the fan we purchased a few months back (was not included in the open box we purchased...got lucky!), rewired the outlets by bedside (I was expecting one, but it made more sense to put the top plugs of 2 outlets in the switch...the smallest things can make a huge difference!), and fixed the landscape lights. He came prepared with replacement light units, but was able to clean out and fix up all but one of the existing units (and used the single replacement unit we happened to have on hand).
Charges were very reasonable and workmanship high quality. Also helped point us to reasonable solution to recessed floodlighting in the kitchen. (And Tommy, yes, the LED light works great! Planning to replace the remainder of the recessed lighting with same.)

"We have used Evergreen twice.  We were having issues with the breaker blowing when we would take showers in our hallway bathroom.  The only things on were the light and the fan so we weren't sure why it would blow from that.  They checked the breaker and everything on the system and finally found that it was the light part of the exhaust fan (that didn't even have a light bulb in it).  They gave us a military discount and I felt we got a good price.  They were about an hour later than they said they would be, but were very nice and courteous when they showed up and did a great job.  So when we were having an issue with another circuit a week later they came out and found a burned outlet in our dining room and replaced it for us.  Again, they were about an hour later than they said they would be, but were very professional and courteous and were able to complete the work quickly.  They gave us a military discount again and I think we got a great price for a great job done.  We were happy with Evergreen and will use them for any future electrician needs."

"Casey installed the ceiling fan in my 19 foot ceiling. It had a 6 foot downrod and now the room feels much cooler. And installed another ceiling fan in the guest bedroom. He also had to run the wiring in the attic for both fans which was a very difficult attic and small space to work through. He did excellent work and I recommend him to my friends and family. And I would recommend him for any electrical project you may have. I wish I could post a picture so you could see his excellent work"

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

Installing a ceiling fan where no wiring exists is a difficult and potentially dangerous job that should not be attempted as a DIY project. It is recommended to hire a certified electrician to build the necessary electrical infrastructure. In some areas, building codes require this work to be done by a professional to ensure safety and compliance. Due to the complexity, this type of installation is a significant job that could cost up to $2,000.

If you’re replacing an old fixture with a ceiling fan, you usually won’t need a permit, but if your electrician runs new wiring for the fixture, you likely will need a permit. Building permits are necessary in most municipalities if you’re making changes to your electrical system, so even if you have partial wiring run to the area and need new wiring installed for added functionality, you’ll probably need a permit. Your electrician should be able to let you know if you need one, and they’ll typically file the paperwork for you.

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.

The most efficient ceiling fan height is 8 to 9 feet from the floor to the fan blades. For ceilings higher than 9 feet, a downrod can be used to lower the fan to the optimal height. This positioning ensures adequate air circulation and maximizes the cooling effect. Remember, fans should be installed at least 7 feet above the floor for safety.

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.
