Install Ceiling Fan

How much would it cost to install a ceiling fan?

Low handyman estimate for materials and labor using existing mounting box:
  • Misc electrical - wire nuts, screws.
  • Labor 1.0 hours (including assembly of fan)
High handyman estimate for materials and labor replacing mounting box:
  • Ceiling fan rated mounting box to replace existing.

If this is just a replacement and the box is already supported to hold the ceiling fan, then in our service area we would charge $65 for first time customers.
