    So I am looking to put in a ceiling fan and would like to find a contractor to do it for me. So far I've called 2 electricians, 1 roofer, and 2 HVAC companies. All of which say they don't do it and I should call someone else.

    Anyone have any recommendations?

    Thanks,
    Vinny

    Usually the place you buy it from can provide that service for a fee, like Home Depot, lowes.....
    Im thinking about doing the same next year, but Im a cheapo, so Ill probably do it myself....I used to roof when I was in college and did the electrical in the basement of my last home.
    Give them a call, if they wont, they do have contacts that will.

    My advice is to stay away from Home Depot assigned contractors. I've heard more bad stories than good ones. Get referrals on a general contractor and let them do the job. It's like having Pet Boys install a timing belt on a Ferrari. I'll buy stuff from Home Depot or Lowes but I'll have someone else install it.
