Ceiling Fan Installation
 

Looking for a local person experienced in and certified to install ceiling fans

If you want a professional, hire a licensed electrician like Lenhart Electric. But, a good handyman can also do it.

If it is a NEW fan location, a permit is required and an inspection required if you are doing it yourself (or a handyman), I did my own, and this is what was required. If you are replacing a fan, then as stated above a handyman can do it, no inspections or permits. 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.

We bought our fans from Dan's Fan City. I think the installer was a sub-contractor and he did a nice job and the price wasn't bad. Call DFC for more info if inclined.

thank you!

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.

Thank you for your response. We have been to Dans and may still buy from them and possible have them install but just looking to see if someone local may give a good deal on install.

I also bought a fan from Dan's Fan City to replace an original fan. At that time, if you spent $200, the installation was free. An electrician delivered and installed the fan in about 3 minutes. Good job.

OP, a handyman and an 8 foot ( or 10 foot) ladder and he should be good to go. I did this for a couple of neighbors, but I am getting out of this, too much other stuff to do.

Dan's had an ad in the paper just today, any fan they sell just $29 to install. That's better than even a handyman price.

Until you see the prices of their fans

There's no certification to install ceiling fans. You either know how to do it or you don't. I believe you don't.

Installing a ceiling fan would be covered under the "certified electrical contractor" license in Florida. You can verify whether someone has that type of license or any type of license on this website.

Licensing Portal - License Search

There are other people who will install ceiling fans, but they may not be certified or licensed to do it.

Just pay someone a fair price to do a good job.Wow I’ve never seen people trying to be so cheap.

Are you looking to install new or replace old? Need someone to take down old and put up new Do not like existing fans as they are different kinds in each room.

There is always an ad in the Daily Sun 100 dollars to install ceiling fans

I would suggest going to Dan's Fan City. You can compare their fan prices with Lowes and Home Depot. But, Dan's will deliver and replace the fans in your house by a licensed electrician for little or no cost at all.

Ceiling Fan Installer
 

Dan's Fan Installer does great job. Name is Ben Sikes Electric LLC. He installs all fans, light kits, moves fans, installs braces and boxes, etc. EZ to work with. Phone is: (352) 324-3322. Florida EC#13002547

I would stay away from Hayes. They replaced 5 cheep ceiling fans with very expensive high quality fans and took several days to install them. All wobbled but the cheep ones never did. Took them several return trips over a long period of time to correct. One still wobbles. Very pricy as well.

You can buy a fan balancing kit at Home Depot to fix the wobble. Easy to do yourself.

Call Scott Jones at 352-2170744. He is an electrician and is very fair and excellent work.
