Skip to content Ceiling fans, light fixtures, TVs, mirrors, blinds and bathroom hardware hung level and fixed to suit the wall behind them, one mount or a full list.
Fixture installation and mounting covers hanging and fitting ceiling fans, light fixtures, TVs, mirrors, pictures, shelves, blinds, curtain rods and bathroom hardware such as towel bars and grab bars. The fasteners are matched to the wall or ceiling behind the item, whether that is a stud, solid block or hollow drywall.

About Winter Park: Winter Park is an Orange County city north of Orlando, set among a chain of lakes joined by canals. Brick streets, old live oaks and a historic Park Avenue district sit alongside many homes built in earlier decades.
A ceiling fan is the one fixture that moves, and that changes what the ceiling has to carry. In an older home here, the box above an old ceiling light may never have been meant to hold a fan. A smaller room may call for a flush mount where clearance is tight, while a large room may call for a longer downrod and more ladder time.
The work starts at the ceiling plate. The existing box has to suit the fan’s weight and motion, and a plain light box may not. Once the mount is right, the fan is assembled, hung and its blades balanced, because a small wobble tends to grow. Canopy screws, blade arms and the downrod all get snugged at ceiling height. Fans and lights go on existing wiring only. If the box or wiring is unsuitable, an electrician takes over.
Set the fan, its manual and all its hardware where they are easy to reach, and list which rooms have a wobbling fan or a light to swap. Blinds, mirrors and a TV can ride along on the same visit, which can be one-time or part of a recurring plan. Call (407) 638-8956 once the list is ready. The post on when to call a handyman for fixtures marks where handyman work stops.

Yes, when it replaces an existing fixture on existing wiring, this is routine handyman work. A fan needs a box and mount suited to its weight and motion. Adding a fixture where none existed, or running new wiring, usually calls for a licensed electrician.
It depends on what is behind the wall. Homes here may have wood studs, concrete block or hollow drywall, and each takes different fasteners. Weight and wall type decide the hardware, so the right anchor matters as much as the mount itself.
Humidity is hard on cheap hardware and on anything fixed into a damp or soft wall. Corrosion-resistant hardware, the right anchor for tile or drywall and a sealed edge help. A stained or soft wall points to a leak that needs fixing first.
A wobble often comes from a loose canopy or mount, unbalanced blades, or a box that was meant for a light rather than a moving fan. Clean Corps checks the mount, tightens hardware and balances the blades. If the box or wiring is unsuitable, the job goes to an electrician.
Sometimes. In an older house, what sits above the ceiling varies from room to room. A fan is fitted only on existing wiring and a suitable box. Where those are not suitable, an electrician is the right call.
Have the fan with its manual and parts, note which rooms are involved, and mention any wobble or noise from the old fixture. Photos of the ceiling help. Then call (407) 638-8956 to book it as a single visit or as part of a recurring plan.
