What Northern Rivers Customers Say

What Affects Ceiling Fan Installation Cost?

The cost depends on whether an existing fan point is available, the ceiling height and construction, and whether new wiring or switching is needed. Replacing an existing fan on a working circuit is straightforward. Installing a fan where no wiring exists requires a new cable run from the switchboard or nearest junction.

I recently had a few electrical jobs done around the house, including installing ceiling fans and new lights, repairing my solar system, and a few others. Everything was completed without any issues, and I'm really happy with how it all turned out. Communication was easy, the work was done neatly, and it was clear he takes pride in what he does. It's nice to have someone who turns up when they say they will and gets the job done properly. I'd happily recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable electrician, and I'll definitely be using him again in the future.
