"We had Shawn come to our home to install a ceiling fan in our living room with a raised ceiling. He was very kind, courteous, honest, and very professional. He knew what he was doing and made me feel assured of the quality of his work. One catch though is that WireOne has an initial dispatch fee and then works off of a standard pricing sheet so my particular install got quite expensive. The pricing sheet covers almost any imaginable service/job and scenario that they could do but definitely seems to favor them (probably factoring in most time expected to complete the work, worst case in supply cost, etc.); but as a customer you know upfront exactly what the cost will be and can choose whether to do it or not. They offer great quality work and you know they're doing everything right, but you may end up paying for it depending on the service/job that you're looking for."

"It went very well. Two workers showed up on time and had the job done quickly and neatly. Didn't quite use all the time on the cert. They were going to repair three Kitchen Island braces. They didn't have the advantage to know what exactly they needed to do the repair, so the required tools were not in their kit. Guess I'll get that done at a later date. Overall, a good service.

"Overall I'm very pleased with the work John has done. He clearly knows his stuff and held true to his initial comment that if he found something that needed to be fixed, he'd fix it at no extra charge. Unfortunately his guarantee wound up being expensive for him since he found the duct work in my attic was a complete mess and fixed it, which he had not initially planned on. But I very much appreciate him keeping his word and fixing the ducts as well as electrical, venting, and other little things that were messed up. (My house was updated 2 owners ago and while the owner had great enthusiasm for remodeling, had very little expertise, resulting in a lot of unpleasant surprises.)

We had a communication glitch about halfway through the project. Due to some health issues, he didn't come for a few days, nor did he call when he said he would. After we discussed it, John has been excellent about keeping me updated as to when he'll be at the house and what work will be done. His extra effort has been reassuring for me.

The foam insulation John and his crew installed in the basement, crawl spaces, add-on entry way, and attic has already had a positive effect, as has caulking cracks in the walls allowing cold air from the attic into the bedrooms. I have a new bathroom exhaust fan that actually takes air in and is vented out of the house instead of into the soffit which resulted in mold and rust issues. As soon as John has crew available he will blow cellulose insulation into my attic.

John has been fun to work with and his work has gotten me the results I wanted.

UPDATE: It's been one month since I wrote this review, which I wrote before the work was completely finished as a favor to John as he was starting another Angie's List deal and wanted me to mention the work he'd done. It's also been a month since I heard from John. The work that is finished continues to be great, but I have 36 bales of cellulose insulation stacked in my garage. A friend helped me move it in because I needed the parking space. I also have his insulation blower, hose, shop vac, and a bunch of tools, as well as some extra foam insulation laying around my house, yard, and garage. Little did I know when I purchased this house that my 2 car garage would be used to store my contractor's tools and materials!

I have left several voice mails and texts as well as two emails asking John to contact me and I have heard nothing. The human part of me hopes that he and his family are ok. The homeowner part of me wants him to get his butt back over here and finish the last part of the job, or at least call me to tell me when he thinks he'll be able to get here. 

John is great when he's here. When he's not here, it's frustrating."

"I called because my pottery kiln was not working, I thought it was just a problem with my breaker.  I was wrong! After checking power in my studio I found out that half of my studio was not getting power and my 220 outlet were only putting out 110 power(not Good)
I called K&N services and told them this was an urgent problem . He said he would stop in the next day and HE DID After checking out my electrical box he discovered that my main breaker was out. This could have ended upa $1300.00 because my electrical box is an outdated model . He went to several electrical supply houses and found one for my outdated electrical box, saving me a ton of money. He was fast, courtious, and saved me a lot of money. This not the kind of service I am used to recieving , I will use him for all future work on my home and studio, Including a new roof in spring.

FAQs for ceiling fan repair projects in Madison, WI

Maintain ceiling fans by cleaning them. They have sealed bearings so they don't usually need any type of lubrication. You'll want to dust the blades regularly, using a vacuum cleaner to get into inaccessible areas. You may want to remove the light cover and clean it out and any exposed areas for dust. You may need to use a wet cleaning solution of some kind, particularly on fans near kitchen areas, where grease buildup mixes with dust to create grime that can destroy your fan.

Common reasons include worn-out components from constant use, loose or faulty wiring, accumulated dirt and grime interfering with moving parts, electronic component failure, and physical damage from impacts. Motor capacitors may fail after years of operation, causing intermittent function or complete failure. Bearing issues can create excessive friction that eventually freezes the motor. Regular maintenance can help prevent these issues.

When a ceiling fan’s motor capacitor fails, it interrupts the essential electrical flow required for the fan’s proper operation. The capacitor is a compact but critical component responsible for initiating and regulating the power surge during startup and continuous operation. Without a functioning capacitor, the fan loses momentum, may experience stuttering speeds, and ultimately ceases to operate completely. Replacing the capacitor immediately restores the normal electrical balance, ensuring that the fan operates safely and efficiently while maintaining its intended airflow and performance levels.

Ceiling fans typically last between five and 15 years, averaging 10 years. Factors affecting lifespan include usage frequency, quality of materials, and routine maintenance. Environmental conditions also impact longevity. Ceiling fans installed in humid bathrooms or outdoor settings generally deteriorate faster than those in climate-controlled living spaces. Regular cleaning and prompt repairs can extend a fan's life and maintain its performance.
