Can I just replace my light fixture with a ceiling fan?

Only if the existing box is rated for fans. If it's a standard light box, we'll swap it for a fan-rated one before installing.

How long does a ceiling fan install take?

Replacing a fan with a fan-rated box already in place: 30–60 minutes. New install with no existing fixture: 2–4 hours depending on access.

Do you supply the fan or do I?

You supply the fan - we install it. You'll get exactly the model/finish you want and we don't mark up hardware.
