Short answer: Ceiling fan installation typically costs $150 to $350 per fixture, including proper bracing, wiring, and switch setup. A standard light fixture box is not automatically rated for a ceiling fan's weight and motion — this is one of the most common and dangerous mistakes in DIY installs.

What This Service Covers

Ceiling fans need more than a standard light box. The fan's weight and constant motion require a properly rated electrical box and bracing, or it can loosen over time and become a genuine hazard — a fan working itself loose from the ceiling is not a theoretical risk. We install ceiling fans with correct bracing, wiring, and switch configuration, including remote controls and smart/app-connected models if you want them.

Is Your Existing Box Fan-Rated?

Worth Knowing

Control Options

We can wire ceiling fans to a standard wall switch, a separate fan/light switch combination, a remote control, or a smart/app-connected control — whichever fits how you actually want to use the room. This is worth deciding before install day, since it affects the wiring approach.

What to Expect

  1. Free assessment of your existing box and wiring, or the room if starting fresh
  2. Written, upfront price before any work begins
  3. Fan mounted, wired, balanced, and tested same visit in most cases
