Yes. Standard ceiling electrical boxes are not designed to support the weight and movement of a ceiling fan. A fan-rated ceiling box is required for safe installation. We check your existing box as part of every ceiling fan installation and upgrade it if needed before the fan goes up.
Yes, though it requires running new wiring and installing a proper ceiling box, which is more involved than a straightforward swap. We handle this type of installation regularly and will walk you through what’s involved and what it will cost before any work begins.
Fan sizing is based primarily on the square footage of the room. For rooms up to 75 square feet, a fan with a blade span of 29 to 36 inches is typically appropriate. Rooms between 75 and 175 square feet generally work well with a 42 to 52-inch fan, and larger rooms benefit from fans 52 inches or larger. We can help you choose the right size during our visit.
Wobbling is usually caused by unbalanced blades, loose blade brackets, or an improperly secured mounting. If your fan was recently installed and is wobbling, we can come out to assess the installation and correct the issue.
Yes. Most ceiling fans can be installed on angled ceilings using a specialized mounting kit or an extended downrod that allows the fan to hang level even when the ceiling itself is sloped. We handle vaulted ceiling installations regularly and will make sure your fan is mounted safely and correctly, regardless of your ceiling type.
