A ceiling fan needs a fan-rated box, not a light box — that's the part most people find out the hard way. OSB installs and replaces fans throughout Lenox, including rooms that have never had a ceiling fixture at all.
“Sold our house and the buyer's inspector flagged eight electrical items. OSB fixed all of them in one visit and wrote it up so we could close on time.”
“The quote they gave me on the phone was the number on the invoice. That is apparently rare and it shouldn't be.”
“Storm took out our power for four days last winter. This year we have a standby generator that started itself while we were asleep.”
Replacing a fan where a fan-rated box already exists is a quick flat-rate job. Adding a fan to a room with no fixture costs more because it needs a box, a switch leg and a cable run.
