"I called Scotty when I ordered a new fan last week and we agreed I would call him when It arrived at Lowes. It came a day later than promised and I had called Scotty to let him know. When I called at noon today to say it had arrived, I assumed he could not come until tomorrow or later. As it turned out, his schedule had changed and he and his brother were there within the hour. They were courteous, professional, respected my property, and gave me the advertised 5% discount. They answered my questions. I would not hesitate to use their services in the future or to recommend them to others.

Contractor contacted me within several hours of initial call.  Following day, electrician came by and provided estimates based on the features of the fan we opted to use.  Unfortunately, this pricing came in a bit higher then I was expecting.  Several days later I came across a fan in a local retailer that met all my needs and was at an attractive sale price.  I re-contacted Cole Electric and asked if they would adjust their quote to cover just their labor and other materials needed to do the job.  They did this, readjusted their quote and performed the work a day later.

As before, the end result was excellent customer service, a willingness to work with the customer and a clean professional installation.  I was very satisfied.

"The service was great. Jomoniq an Jeff arrived at the appointed time and went right to work. They were professional and responsive. Very easy to work with. One of the ceiling fans was located in a room with a 20" ceiling. It was a tough install and they did a great job. I'd recommend them to anyone needing electrical service and certainly use them again myself.

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

No, a ceiling fan doesn’t have to be wired to a switch, but it’s often more convenient. You can use the included pull chain if your ceiling isn’t too high or install a remote module later, as they are a cheap, easy-to-install option that’ll let you control both the fan and light fixture.

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.

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. 

Yes, you can install a ceiling fan where a standard light fixture is, as the electrical wiring is often similar and may not need to be replaced. The most important step is to ensure the ceiling can support the fan's weight and motion. You will need to replace the existing light fixture's electrical box with a fan-rated electrical box, which is specifically designed to handle the extra weight and vibration. These boxes will be labeled as suitable for ceiling fan support and will indicate the maximum weight they can hold. Before you begin, also consider if you need an extension rod for a high ceiling or a special mount for an angled ceiling.

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.
