A wobbling ceiling fan is more than just an annoyance; it can be an indication of a serious imbalance or loose mounting that could pose a safety hazard. Our technicians specialize in identifying the cause of the wobble and will rebalance the blades, tighten connections, or reinforce mounting hardware.
When your ceiling fan refuses to power on, it can be due to a range of electrical or mechanical faults, including issues with the wall switch, a faulty remote control receiver, a tripped circuit breaker, or loose wiring connections.
This peculiar symptom often points to a faulty capacitor or issues with the motor windings. Our technicians can replace defective capacitors and free up seized bearings to restore silent rotation.
Problems can range from battery issues to signal interference or a malfunctioning receiver unit. We troubleshoot communication issues and repair or replace defective wall controls.
Grinding sounds often indicate worn-out bearings, while clicking might suggest loose components. We systematically diagnose and perform tasks such as lubricating bearings and tightening screws.
If your fan's light kit is flickering or not turning on, we can repair wiring, replace sockets, or install new light kits to bring illumination back to your room.
If your fan fails to switch rotational direction, it often indicates a problem with the internal reversing switch. Our electricians can access and repair or replace this crucial component.
Loose connections, corroded wires, or incorrect wiring can lead to intermittent operation. Our qualified electricians are experts in diagnosing and safely repairing all forms of electrical wiring faults.
