Can you replace an old fan with a heavier new one?
Yes, our licensed Cerritos electricians replace old fans with heavier models regularly. We inspect the existing box first, and if it is not fan-rated, we install a fan-rated brace anchored to the ceiling framing so the mount safely carries the added weight and the fan runs without wobble.

Do I need a new switch for a fan and light combo?
Often yes, a fan and light combo works best with separate controls. We can add a dual wall switch or set up a remote so you run the fan speed and the light independently, which most standard single switches cannot do on their own.

Can you install a ceiling fan where none existed before?
Yes, we install ceiling fans in rooms with no existing fixture. That job involves running new code-compliant wiring, adding a fan-rated electrical box, and placing a control switch where you want it, so plan for a longer visit than a simple fan swap.

How long does a ceiling fan installation take?
Most standard ceiling fan installations in Cerritos take one to two hours. High or vaulted ceilings, heavier fixtures, or a room that needs new wiring can extend that to a half day, and we give you a firm time estimate before we start.
