We were able to move the dining room light about 18 inches as a DIY project. Lowes sells an OLD work box that is suitable for 75 pounds of fan on light load. We were lucky that the wiring ran in the correct direction that it could be pulled to the new box location, and the hole cut for the new box was a suitable "patch" for the old hole. To be honest, if you know where to look, you can see the patch, otherwise it is not noticeable.
