"Don’t use the plumbing! Called to have Kohler toilet tank plunger repaired. Whole installation is $20. Labor is an hour at $80 so the price is $150, at most. No, they charged $450–BS! These guys are a scam. No prices and I told them to have the repair person call me before arriving. No call, no prices. And, then the repair person has the stones to tell me that everyone overcharges!! Let’s start with not using Beacon!!!"

I’m David, your trusted handyman in Annandale, VA. I came to this profession from a different angle than most. Prior to getting into handyman work, I spent fifteen years working in the engine rooms of cargo ships. Being in the middle of the ocean taught me to face problems head-on: I was an electrician, plumber, machinist, welder, and even an appliance repairman. If the right part was missing, I adapted—fixing what was at hand, crafting a new part, or finding an alternative solution. This drive to find solutions has not changed. While today’s world often leans towards a “throw out-and-replace” mindset, I have always gravitated towards mending and restoring. My commitment is simple: to deliver the best service possible. And if a task is beyond my scope of expertise or needs specialized knowledge, I will always be honest about it. In my opinion, it is better to steer you in the right direction than to lead you off course.

FAQs for ceiling fan installation projects in Fairfax, VA

Adding a fan to a pergola, gazebo, or other outdoor living space costs between $250 and $3,000. If you need wiring, expect to pay anywhere from $500 to $1,500 or more for the circuit, switch, and electrical boxes. You'll also need to make sure you purchase one that's outdoor-specific with weather-resistant construction.

You need an electrician to install a ceiling fan if new wiring or circuit modifications are required. Installing a ceiling fan involves electrical and mechanical expertise, and working with electricity can be dangerous without proper experience. If replacing an existing fan or light fixture where wiring is already in place, a handyperson can perform the installation. However, for new installations, complex setups, or any situation involving electrical work, it's essential to hire a local licensed electrician to ensure the job is done safely and complies with local codes.

You should get a ceiling fan that matches the decor of your home. Out-of-place styles stick out and may detract from the home's resale value later. If you're unsure which design to go with, talk to an interior designer.

Interior decorators cost around $2,000 to $12,000, but they create a plan for your entire home. You can choose from every possible style, from traditional carved oak to slick stainless steel to fans resembling old airplane propellers.

The size of your room will dictate the appropriate fan size. For exceptionally large rooms, consider installing more than one ceiling fan. Use the following guidelines to determine the fan size you should purchase based on your room's size:

  • For rooms up to 75 square feet, choose a fan with a blade span of 29–36 inches.

  • For rooms 80–175 square feet, choose a fan with a blade span of 42–48 inches.

  • For rooms 180–350 square feet, choose a fan with a blade span of 52–56 inches.

  • For rooms larger than 350 square feet, choose a fan with a blade span of 60 inches or larger.

A fan costs around $44 to $88 annually if you run it nonstop. That's assuming it costs about $0.05 to $0.09 to run a fan every hour based on a range of 50 to 80 kilowatts per hour and an average national rate of $0.11 per kilowatt hour for electricity.

Installing a ceiling fan involves several steps:

  1. Turn off the power at the breaker box.

  2. Remove the old fixture and disconnect wiring.

  3. Install support braces if needed.

  4. Attach the new fan housing to the existing box.

  5. Connect the wiring according to code and manufacturer instructions.

  6. Assemble the fan components.

  7. Restore power and test the fan.

Working with electricity can be dangerous. If you're not experienced with electrical work, it's wise to hire a professional to ensure a safe and proper installation.
