Ceiling Fan Installation and Replacement in Whitmore Lake
A fan weighs far more than a light and it moves. That is why ceiling fan installation in Whitmore Lake should start with a fan-rated box anchored to framing. We mount it solidly, wire it correctly and balance it so it runs quietly.

Your local choice for ceiling fan installation in Whitmore Lake, MI
Metro Detroit homes work their electrical systems hard, and more so every year as EV chargers, central air and home offices are added. In Whitmore Lake and across Washtenaw County, we check the capacity of the panel and service before we begin ceiling fan installation, so that nothing new is hung on a system that is already full.
Replacing a light with a ceiling fan
The most common request we get in Whitmore Lake is to put a fan where a light fixture hangs now. The wiring is usually already there, but the box almost never is rated for a fan. We replace it with a braced, fan-rated box, often without any drywall repair, then hang the fan. If you want the light and fan on separate switches, we can add the extra conductor or install a control that does it over the existing wires.

Ceiling Fan Installation cost in Whitmore Lake
Ceiling fan installation cost in Whitmore Lake depends on whether wiring and a rated box already exist, ceiling height and the fan itself. Replacing an existing fan is the simplest case.
