Also, if this is a new installation (or a conversion of a can light to a fan) you will need a holder rated for a ceiling fan (typically attic work). I offer this as it was not completely clear what type of work you were looking for.
Thank you for your reply. The fans I want to install are all in locations where a fan was planned to be put so I have the box, switch and wire already in place. My issue is that we have 12' ceilings and that causes me a bit of a problem otherwise I would install myself. Just looking for an experienced installer who is reasonable in cost.
