Denver Electricians Who Handle Ceiling Fans

If you're searching for a licensed electrician in Denver to replace or install a ceiling fan, All Electric handles exactly that, and we back every installation with a 1-year labor warranty. Our electricians are licensed under Colorado contractor license #ME.0600978, fully insured, and have completed ceiling fan work across Denver's residential neighborhoods for 9 years. Whether your old fan stopped working, wobbles badly, or you're upgrading to a new model, we'll evaluate the situation first and give you an honest recommendation. Call (720) 951-4619 to schedule.

We serve homeowners across Denver, including Capitol Hill, Washington Park, Highlands, Baker, Congress Park, Sunnyside, Park Hill, and Sloan's Lake. Older Denver homes often have ceiling boxes that weren't rated for fan weight, or wiring that needs to be evaluated before a new fan goes up. Our team knows what to look for in Denver's aging housing stock. With 4.9 stars across 468 Google reviews, our track record speaks for itself. Book online or call us directly to get on the schedule.

Replacement or Repair: We Tell You Which

A wobbly or dead fan doesn't automatically mean you need a new one.

Our licensed electricians will inspect your existing ceiling fan before recommending replacement. Sometimes it's a capacitor, a loose mounting bracket, or a wiring issue at the switch. Other times the motor is gone and a repair costs more than a new fan. We'll tell you which situation you're in and let you decide. We won't push a replacement if a repair makes more sense financially. That's how we've built 468 reviews at a 4.9-star average, honest assessments, not upsells. If you do need a new fan, we can help you select one that fits the room's dimensions and your home's wiring. See our electrical repair page for related troubleshooting services.

What We Cover

Ceiling Fan Services All Electric Provides

From a basic swap-out to running new wiring for a first-time install.

  1. Fan Replacement

    Remove the old fan, inspect the existing box and wiring, install the new fan to code. We handle fans up to 60 inches and heavy-duty models that require fan-rated boxes.

  2. New Fan Installation

    No box in the ceiling? We'll install a fan-rated junction box, run the wiring, and mount the fan. Includes switch installation if needed.

  3. Fan Repair

    Wobbling, humming, non-responsive remotes, dead speed settings. We diagnose and repair before recommending full replacement.

  4. Remote and Switch Upgrades

    Add a wall control, replace a failing remote receiver, or convert a pull-chain fan to a smart switch. We wire it cleanly and correctly.

  5. Exterior Fan Installation

    Covered patios and porches need fans rated for damp or wet locations. We install the right fan for the exposure and make sure the circuit handles it.

How It Works

How We Handle a Ceiling Fan Job

Three steps from call to finished install.

  1. Step 1: Schedule and Confirm

    Call (720) 951-4619 or book online. We confirm the appointment window and what you already have, fan, wiring, existing switch setup.

  2. Step 2: On-Site Assessment

    We inspect the ceiling box, existing wiring, and switch before any work starts. If something needs to change, we tell you upfront.

  3. Step 3: Clean Installation

    We mount the fan, wire it properly, test all speeds and any light kit, and clean up. Every installation carries a 1-year labor warranty.

What Denver Homes Require That Other Markets Don't

A lot of Denver's residential housing, especially in neighborhoods like Capitol Hill, Baker, and Five Points, was built before ceiling fans were standard. That means original ceiling boxes rated only for a light fixture, not the dynamic load a fan puts on the mount. We see it constantly. Installing a heavy fan on an undersized box is a code violation and a safety issue. Our electricians always check the box rating and replace it if necessary. Denver's older wiring, including knob-and-tube in pre-1950s homes, also requires evaluation before any new load is added. We handle that assessment as part of every ceiling fan job. It's not a separate charge. If we find a larger wiring issue, we'll document it and give you the option to address it. For context on how electrical code requirements work with older homes, our electric code violation repairs page covers the specifics. We also carry home surge protection options if you want to protect your electronics at the same time.

What Denver Homeowners Ask Before Booking

Not answered here? Call (720) 951-4619 and ask the electrician.

Do I need an electrician to replace a ceiling fan in Denver, or can I do it myself?
Denver building codes allow homeowners to do some electrical work in their own homes, but a ceiling fan replacement involves verifying the ceiling box is fan-rated, confirming the circuit capacity, and wiring the connections correctly. Get it wrong and you've got a fire risk or a fan that fails the moment someone turns it on. For a straightforward swap where the box is already fan-rated, a confident DIYer can manage it. For anything involving new wiring, a new box, or an older home with aluminum or knob-and-tube wiring, call a licensed electrician. It's not worth the liability.
How long does a ceiling fan replacement take in a Denver home?
A standard replacement where the existing box is fan-rated and the wiring is already in place typically runs 45 minutes to 90 minutes. If we need to replace the ceiling box, add a switch, or deal with unexpected wiring issues, common in Denver's older stock, particularly pre-1960s construction, plan for 2 to 3 hours. We'll give you a realistic time estimate after the on-site assessment. We don't rush ceiling fan work because a loose mounting becomes a safety problem.
What if I don't have an existing ceiling fan box in the room I want covered?
We install fan-rated junction boxes regularly in Denver homes that weren't wired for fans originally. The process involves cutting into the ceiling, securing a fan-rated box to a brace or joist, and running wiring to the switch. If you want a separate switch for the light and fan, we'll run the appropriate wiring. It's a more involved job than a straight swap, but it's a clean, permanent solution. We'll walk you through what's involved before any work begins.
My ceiling fan wobbles badly. Should I replace it or repair it?
Wobble has a few common causes: unbalanced blades, a loose mounting bracket, or a failing motor. Blade balance issues are usually fixed inexpensively. A loose mounting is a safety concern we address immediately. A failing motor on an older fan often costs more to repair than a new fan costs to buy. Our electricians assess all three possibilities before making a recommendation. We carry balancing kits and can diagnose a motor issue on-site. If repair is the right call, we say so. If replacement makes more financial sense, we'll explain exactly why.
Does All Electric serve Denver neighborhoods like Washington Park and Highlands for ceiling fan work?
Yes. We serve the full Denver metro, including Washington Park, Highlands, Sunnyside, Baker, Capitol Hill, Congress Park, Park Hill, Sloan's Lake, and surrounding areas. Our team is based in Denver and works across the city regularly. We also cover Aurora, Lakewood, Englewood, and other surrounding communities. If you're not sure whether we reach your address, call (720) 951-4619 and we'll confirm.

Electrician came out the next day after calling to install two light fixtures. Minimal issues and got them both installed successfully even though we have an old home. Pricing was reasonable to me. I will definitely be using them again for any similar needs!
