Can you install the ceiling fan yourself or do you need an electrician?

- Confirm that all labour is guaranteed and ceiling fans supplied come with a warranty period
Therefore depending on who you choose, some electricians charge much more than what the job should actually cost. And unfortunately as with most industries the market does have a few bad eggs that can charge like a wounded bull.
Simply put it is always best practice to follow the above 5 steps. To ensure you are getting a service that meets your needs
