Ceiling Fan Installation Houston is a team of licensed, insured electricians who install, repair, and replace ceiling fans across Houston and Harris County. We hang new fans, swap out old ones, add a fan to a room that never had one, and get a wobbling or dead fan running right again. From a simple same-day swap to running new wiring for a fan on a two-story or vaulted ceiling, we do it safely, to code, and for a flat price you approve before we start.
In Houston's heat and humidity, a ceiling fan is not a luxury, it is how you keep a room comfortable and your energy bill down for most of the year. That is why nearly every home here runs them in the living areas, bedrooms, and out on the patio. We install the full range, from standard flush-mount and downrod fans to large great-room fans, damp and wet-rated outdoor fans, and smart fans with remotes, and we make sure each one is mounted on a proper fan-rated box so it holds for years without wobbling or dropping.
If your fan is doing any of these, we can find the cause and fix it, usually the same day.
A fan that is completely dead usually comes down to a bad pull chain or switch, a failed capacitor, a tripped breaker, or a wiring problem at the box. We find which one it is and fix it, often on the same visit.
A wobbling fan is more than annoying, it means the blades are out of balance or the mount is loose, and over time that stress can crack the mount or drop the fan. We balance the blades, tighten or replace the mounting, and make sure it is on a fan-rated box.
Clicking, grinding, or a constant hum points to worn bearings, a loose part, or a failing motor. We track down the source and either repair it or, if the motor is going, give you the replacement number so you are not throwing money at a dying fan.
When the fan runs but the light does not, or the reverse, the problem is usually in the pull chains, the wiring in the switch housing, or a bad light kit. These are common, quick fixes once we open it up and test.
A fan that ignores its remote or wall control often has a dead receiver, a bad control, or a pairing problem. We repair or replace the receiver and controls and get it responding again.
Want a fan in a room that only has a light or nothing at all? We run the wiring, install a fan-rated box, add the switch, and mount the fan, so you get a finished, code-compliant installation, not a patch job.
Installation, repair, replacement, and outdoor fans, including the tough jobs like new-location wiring and high, vaulted ceilings across Harris County.
Most ceiling fan installations are a straightforward same-day job when there is already a fan or a ceiling light in the spot, and we do them clean and to code. We remove the old fixture, confirm the box is a fan-rated box that can carry the weight and motion of a fan (a standard light box cannot), install the proper box if it is not, and mount, wire, and balance the new fan. You get a fan that runs quiet and steady, with the switch and any remote set up and tested before we leave.
We install every type and size, flush-mount fans for lower ceilings, downrod fans for standard and high ceilings, large great-room fans, and smart fans with app and remote control. If you bought the fan, we will install it; if you want us to supply it, we will help you pick the right size and mount for the room. Either way, you get a flat price up front, no surprises.
A fan that wobbles, hums, will not turn on, or runs but has no light does not usually need to be replaced, it needs the right repair. We diagnose the real cause, a worn capacitor, a bad pull chain or switch, a failing motor, a loose or wrong mounting, out-of-balance blades, or a dead remote receiver, and fix what is actually wrong instead of guessing.
Most repairs are done the same visit, and we carry the common parts. If the motor is burned out or the fan is simply old and not worth repairing, we will tell you straight and give you the replacement number, so you are not paying to patch a fan that is at the end of its life.
When a fan is old, loud, inefficient, or you just want a new look, replacing it is quick and makes a real difference in how a room feels and sounds. We take down the old fan, check the box and wiring while we are up there, upgrade them if needed, and install the new fan properly balanced and tested.
A new fan can also cut your cooling costs, newer motors move more air on less power, and a properly sized fan for the room makes the whole space more comfortable. We help you choose a fan that fits the ceiling height, room size, and style, and we install it for a flat, upfront price.
A fan on a covered patio, porch, or lanai makes a Houston outdoor space usable through the hottest, most humid months, and it keeps the bugs moving along too. Outdoor fans have to be rated for the conditions, damp-rated for covered areas and wet-rated for spots that catch rain, and we install the right one so it holds up to Gulf Coast heat and humidity.
We mount outdoor fans on proper fan-rated boxes and weatherproof the connections, and we can run new wiring and a switch to a patio that does not have a fan yet. The result is a finished, code-compliant outdoor fan built to last, not a quick hookup that corrodes in a season.
A quick primer on when to repair vs replace, and what it takes to add a fan where there is none.
Adding a fan to a room that only has a ceiling light, or no ceiling box at all, is a real electrical job, not a swap, and it is one we do often. For a room with an existing light, we replace the box with a fan-rated box and reuse the wiring, which is usually quick. For a room with nothing overhead, we run new wiring from a nearby circuit, cut in a fan-rated box, add a wall switch or combine it with the light control, and mount the fan. We handle the whole thing to code, and we patch and clean up after, so you end up with a finished install, not a hole in the ceiling.
A repair makes sense when the fan is solid and the problem is a single part, a capacitor, switch, pull chain, mount, or remote receiver, since those are quick, affordable fixes. Replacement is the better call when the motor is burned out, the fan is old and noisy, or it is simply not worth putting money into. We give you the honest numbers both ways, so you can decide, and we will not push a new fan when a twenty-dollar part will do.
A ceiling fan is heavier than a light fixture and it spins, so how it is mounted and wired matters more than people think. A fan hung on the wrong box or an unbalanced blade set is what causes the wobbling, the noise, and, in the worst cases, a fan that drops. Here is what a proper installation includes, and why we do it this way every time.
A ceiling fan has to hang from a UL-listed fan-rated box anchored to the framing, not the standard plastic light box most ceilings have. We install or confirm the right box and bracing every time, because that box is what carries the weight and the motion. It is the single most important part of a fan that stays quiet and secure for years.
Fans on two-story great rooms, sloped, and vaulted ceilings take the right equipment and experience, the correct downrod length for the height, a sloped-ceiling adapter where needed, and the ladders or lift to reach it safely. We handle the tall and awkward ceilings other installers would rather pass on, and we get the fan hung level and balanced.
When a room has no fan box or no separate control, we run the new wiring, cut in the fan-rated box, and install a wall switch or a combined fan-and-light control. This is the part that turns a room with no fan into a room with a proper, switched, code-compliant one.
Before we leave, we set the right downrod for the ceiling height, balance the blades so the fan runs smooth at every speed, and test the fan, light, switch, and remote together. A balanced, correctly set fan is quiet, efficient, and lasts, and that final check is how we make sure yours is.
None of this takes long on a standard install, and it is what separates a fan that runs quiet for a decade from one that wobbles and fails in a year. Whether it is a simple swap or a new fan on a vaulted ceiling with new wiring, we do the whole job right and give you a flat price before we start.
From your first call to the final test, here is how we work.
Call or send the quick form with what you need: a new fan installed, an old one swapped, a repair, a fan added where there is none, or an outdoor fan. Tell us the room and ceiling height and we will set a time.
You get a clear, flat-rate price before any work starts, based on the job, not an hourly meter running while we work. Standard installs are quoted on the spot, and anything involving new wiring or a high ceiling is priced clearly up front.
Most fan jobs can be handled the same day or the next, and we offer evening appointments so you do not have to take off work. We show up in the window we give you.
Our licensed electrician does the work: mounts the fan on a proper fan-rated box, wires it to code, runs new wiring if the room needs it, or diagnoses and fixes a fan that is not working right. We protect your floors and furniture while we work.
Before we leave, we balance the fan, test every speed plus the light, switch, and remote, and clean up completely, so you are left with a quiet, working fan and no mess.
Licensed electricians, flat pricing, and same-day service.
A ceiling fan is electrical work, and a fan hung wrong can wobble, fail, or fall. We are licensed, insured electricians who mount and wire every fan to code, so it is safe and it holds, not a handyman quick-hang.

We protect your floors and furniture, clean up every bit of packaging and debris, and stand behind the work. You get a fan that runs right, installed by a pro who treats your home with care.
Flat, upfront pricing, no hourly surprises. Here are honest ranges to plan around, and you get the exact flat price before any work begins.
A fan where there is already a fan or ceiling light with a usable, fan-rated box.
Adding a fan where there is none: new wiring, a fan-rated box, and a switch.
Capacitor, switch, pull chain, mount, balancing, or remote receiver, priced by the fix.
What moves the price: the ceiling height (high and vaulted ceilings run higher, roughly $300 to $600), whether a fan-rated box is already there, whether new wiring and a switch are needed, the type and size of the fan, whether it is an outdoor fan, and whether we supply the fan.
These are planning ranges from current cost data, not a quote. Your exact flat price comes before any work begins, and the quote is free.
Straight answers from our fan jobs across Harris County.
A standard installation where there is already a fan or ceiling light with a usable box runs about $125 to $300. Adding a fan where there is none, which means new wiring, a fan-rated box, and a switch, runs $350 to $900, and high or vaulted ceilings run higher. A repair runs $100 to $300. You get an exact flat price before any work begins, and the quote is free.
Yes, and it is one of the jobs we do most. For a room with an existing ceiling light, we swap in a fan-rated box and reuse the wiring. For a room with nothing overhead, we run new wiring from a nearby circuit, cut in a fan-rated box, add a switch, and mount the fan, all to code, and we patch and clean up after.
Yes. A wobble usually means unbalanced blades or a loose or wrong mount, and a fan that will not turn on is often a bad capacitor, switch, pull chain, or wiring. We diagnose the real cause and fix it, usually the same visit, and if the motor is shot we will tell you honestly and give you the replacement number.
Yes. High, two-story, sloped, and vaulted ceilings are a specialty, we use the correct downrod length, a sloped-ceiling adapter where needed, and the right ladders or lift to reach it safely and hang the fan level and balanced. These are the jobs a lot of handymen will not touch.
Yes. We install damp-rated and wet-rated fans on covered patios, porches, and lanais, mounted on proper fan-rated boxes with weatherproofed connections so they hold up to Houston heat and humidity. We can also run new wiring and a switch to a patio that does not have a fan yet.
Most ceiling fan installs and repairs are handled the same day or the next, and we offer evening appointments so the job fits your schedule. Call or book online and we will set a time that works.
Either way. If you already bought the fan, we will install it. If you would rather we supply it, we will help you choose the right size, mount, and style for the room and bring it with us. Your flat price is set before we start, so you know the total up front.
