Common questions
Swapping an existing fan for a new one typically runs $125–$185. Putting a fan where there's only a light fixture runs $185–$285 because it includes a fan-rated brace box. Vaulted ceilings above 12 feet are quoted on site, and estimates are always free.
Yes. Most light-only boxes in Las Vegas homes are pancake boxes that can't carry a fan's weight or wobble load, so we install a fan-rated brace box through the existing ceiling opening — no drywall repair needed in most cases — then mount and balance the fan.
Nevada requires a licensed electrical contractor for new circuits, panel work, and permitted jobs. Replacing existing fixtures and devices on existing circuits is handyman-scope work. If your job crosses that line, we'll say so on the phone and point you to a licensed electrician rather than take it on.
Ceiling fan installation is one of the smartest upgrades in a Las Vegas home — a fan lets you hold the thermostat a few degrees higher through a 110°F July without feeling it. We replace tired builder-grade fans, add fans where only a light fixture exists, and handle standard 8-foot ceilings as well as the vaulted great rooms common in Summerlin and Southwest Las Vegas.
Most of what homeowners here call "electrical work" is fixture-level: a dome light that yellowed in the desert sun, a bathroom outlet that should be a GFCI, a dimmer that buzzes with new LED bulbs, a video doorbell that needs the old transformer checked. That's exactly our scope — same-day in most cases, without waiting a week for an electrical contractor to schedule a minimum service call.
Every job starts with a look at the box behind the fixture. Older Las Vegas homes (1970s–1990s builds in the northwest and east valley) often have a light-only pancake box that will not carry a fan's weight or wobble load, so we swap in a fan-rated brace box before mounting. We turn the circuit off at the panel, verify dead with a meter, use wire nuts and grounded connections, then test the fixture on every switch and speed before cleanup.
We stay inside handyman scope on purpose. Replacing existing devices and fixtures on existing circuits is what we do. New circuits, panel or subpanel work, service upgrades, and anything requiring a permit under Nevada rules goes to a licensed electrical contractor — we'll tell you on the phone which side of that line your job falls on.

|---|---|---|
| Outlet or switch replacement | $45–$85 each | Discounts on packages of 5 or more in one visit. |
| GFCI outlet install (bath, kitchen, exterior) | $75–$125 | Code-compliant replacement in wet areas. |
| Smart switch or dimmer install | $85–$145 | Neutral-wire smart switches — Lutron, Kasa, and similar. |
| Ceiling fan swap (fan → fan) | $125–$185 | Existing fan-rated box reused; old fan hauled away. |
| New ceiling fan install (light → fan) | $185–$285 | Includes fan-rated brace box swap and secure mounting. |
| Light fixture / flush mount replacement | $85–$165 | Per fixture; chandeliers and high ceilings quoted on site. |
| Doorbell (wired or video) install | $95–$185 | Reuses the existing transformer where voltage allows. |
Ranges reflect typical Las Vegas jobs on existing circuits and include labor, standard connectors, and cleanup. Vaulted ceilings above 12 feet, attic access, or fixtures you want us to source can add to the range. You get a firm written price before any work starts.
Typical jobs we're called out for, what the fix involved, and where the price usually lands.
Centennial Hills
Problem: A 1990s brass fan with a wobbling downrod and a pull chain that had stopped switching the light.
What we did: Cut power at the panel, verified dead, removed the old fan, checked the existing fan-rated box, mounted a low-profile matte black fan, and balanced the blades.
About 1 hour · $125–$185 range
Southwest Las Vegas
Problem: Two hallway domes had gone amber and one held bulbs the homeowner could no longer buy.
What we did: Replaced both with slim LED flush mounts, reused the existing boxes, and confirmed the dimmer was LED-compatible before leaving.
Under 1 hour for both · $85–$165 per fixture
Enterprise
Problem: Several beige outlets were cracked and loose in the box, and the master bath had a standard outlet next to the sink.
What we did: Replaced five outlets with white decora devices and new cover plates, and installed a GFCI at the vanity, then tested each with a circuit tester.
About 1.5 hours · $45–$85 per outlet, $75–$125 GFCI
Summerlin
Problem: A vaulted great room had a single light fixture on a pancake box that could not carry a fan.
What we did: Installed a fan-rated brace box through the existing opening, added a downrod sized for the vault, mounted and balanced the fan, and set the remote receiver.

Most single-fixture jobs — a fan swap, a light replacement, a GFCI — take under an hour. A light-to-fan conversion or a batch of outlets usually runs one to two hours. Bundling several small items into one visit is the cheapest way to buy our time.
Yes, and most customers do. Bring your own fan, chandelier, smart switch, or doorbell and we install it. If you'd rather we source it, we'll price the fixture separately from the labor so you can see both.
