"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.)

"I highly recommend Murphy Family Electric, in particular Dan, for all of your electrical needs. I needed a ceiling fan installed at a location on my ceiling where there was no current electrical box. The owner gave me a virtual estimate that beat his competitors. Dan was on-time, showed up with a mask, and performed the service professionally. I especially liked how even though I put down some old sheets, he still covered my living room in plastic he brought, to ensure I had no mess to clean up after he was done. Dan was kind, professional and now I have a fan that works beautifully. He took the time to make sure I understood how to work the fan's remote before he left."

"We wanted to try a local contractor and came across Evergreen by chance.  It was an excellent experience.  Thad was knowledgeable and professional and easy to work with.  The crew was exactly the same.  Nice, respectful, competent.  The worked around my crazy schedule as we had other improvements going on.  They had a slight delay in getting the generator as there was a back order, but called and let us know and we worked around it.  Laurie in the office was equally good and kept us in communication on details or things to do and schedule etc.  I could not be more happy with the experience on such a big purchase.  They were always accommodating and helpful.  The Generator and switch were high quality and I think the price was fair.  They even did some easy side things for us for no charge.  We will definitely use them again soon to install an attic fan."

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

Many ceiling fan-rated electrical boxes tend to be made of metal. However, some electrical boxes may also be made of heavy-duty plastic that is reinforced with metal support structures. It may also have an attachment that connects directly to a ceiling joist. If you are ever ensure, consult with a licensed professional to get their insight on best practices and whether the installation is a safe one.

Whether you can install a ceiling fan yourself depends on if you're replacing an existing fixture or installing one where no wiring exists. If you are replacing an existing fan, an experienced DIYer may be able to do the job, which can save on labor costs. This work typically doesn’t require a permit, but there’s always a safety risk when dealing with electrical components, so hiring a pro is still a good idea, especially if you aren't handy. Keep in mind you may need a special ladder for high or vaulted ceilings. However, if you are installing a new ceiling fan where there is no current fixture, you must hire a licensed electrician. In most areas, it is required by law that a professional runs new wiring and pulls the necessary permits. Attempting to install wiring yourself can be dangerous and a code violation.

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.

Though possible, installing a ceiling fan yourself requires electrical knowledge and confidence working with home wiring. Following the manufacturer's instructions carefully and observing safety precautions are crucial components of a DIY installation.

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.
