"Cole Electric has good communication with the customer from your first inquiry, email & text follow up . They requested photos of what I need to address so they understand all aspects of the job. The office contacted me to say the electrician could arrive early. The 2 electricians were professional knowledgeable and addressed my concerns. The ceiling fan installed by someone else was missing screws on the down rod as well as other things not done correctly. They replaced the missing screws, rebuilt the fan and reinstalled it. No more wobble. The 2 under cabinet light fixtures were installed perfectly, no extra cables showing. You get what you pay for and Cole Electric electricians do the job right the first time. I recommend this company and will use them again."

"I appreciate the great service that Asa provided to home. I am highly pleased with the manner in which he introduce himself and the company. The introduction went hand and hand with the service he provided.. After a few questions, he address the technical issues, without making a mess in no time. His friendly attitude and the reasonable price positively gain me as a future customer and referrals to family and friends. Once he repaired and ensured the lighting fixtures were working properly; he offer advice on the difference type of light bulbs and made suggestions on the appropriate led light bulbs. Due to the excellent service provided by Asa, I am taking this time from my busy schedule to let you know.. You have excellent technicians on your team employed with your company.

"We had water damage from an upstairs bathroom when the bathtub overflowed. We had Big Mikes Maintenance come and repair the ceiling and help hang a kitchen cabinet. They did a great job so we got a quote to remodel our bathroom as it was the original bathroom from 1970. Mike gave us the best quote out of 3 different quotes so we decided to give them the job.
They did great work. It did take longer than expected but the quality of the work was worth it.
Mike kept us in the loop during the entire process letting us know exactly what they were doing and why.
Mike owned up to some damage and fixed everything at no extra cost. My wife and I were grateful for that and we love our new bathroom. 
We will definitely hire Big Mikes again for future work as they are honest and do quality work."

"Did a good job. Came in with 'booties' on to protect my floors. Knew my job would take a while so they sent two teams. They also worked well with everybody in the house situation, I had people putting in an alarm system and resurfacing a tub all at the same time. I also felt the final bill was very reasonable given the time they put into the project. I had all of the wall sockets switched out, a flat screen TV mounted with new outlets placed behind it, a new fan installed, and special dimmer switches set up in two of my bedrooms and it all went smoothly."

"Ryan's Repair Service was great!  They contacted me first by email and when I had not responded they contacted me by telephone.  Due to my hectic schedule it was hard to find a good day, especially with the weather being so undependable. But their receptionist (she was so polite and professional) worked with me until we came up with a good date for both of us.  Mr. Ryan came in the rain and waited until rain stopped and clean the gutters and then he power washed the sliding on the house.  He got it all done before Christmas 2013.  I couldn't have been more pleased with the service they provided.  Ryan Repair Service did an excellent job, with professionalism and courtesy.

FAQs for ceiling fan repair projects in Norfolk, VA

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.
