What's Included

Every ceiling fan installation service we complete covers:

Pre-job safety check – isolating the circuit at your switchboard and testing for dead before touching any wires.
Ceiling structure inspection – locating the nearest joist with a stud finder, confirming it will carry the fan's dynamic load (typically 15–20 kg), and fitting a timber batten or metal bracket if the existing support is inadequate.
Old fitting removal – unscrewing and safely disconnecting your current light or previous fan, capping off unused wires if the new fan has fewer circuits.
Wiring and termination – connecting active, neutral, and earth to the fan motor, joining any separate light-kit circuit if your fan has both downlight and blades, and ensuring all terminals are tight and insulated.
Mounting and assembly – securing the bracket to the joist, sliding the downrod through the canopy (or using a flush-mount hub for low ceilings), hanging the motor, attaching each blade with the manufacturer's screws, and fitting the light globe or shade if included.
Switch or remote setup – wiring a new wall switch if you've upgraded from pull-chain control, programming a remote receiver, or connecting to an existing three-speed controller.
Balance and function test – running the fan on each speed to check for wobble (adding blade-balancing clips if needed), verifying reverse function works for winter mode, and confirming the light operates independently.
Clean-up and disposal – bagging your old fitting and packaging, sweeping any plaster dust, and taking rubbish with us when we leave.

We supply cable, connectors, and mounting hardware as standard; you supply the fan itself (Bunnings and online retailers stock hundreds of models) or let us know during the quote if you'd like us to bring a specific unit.

Pricing in Footscray

Ceiling Fan Installation in Footscray starts from $150. The final price depends on the size and condition of the job, access to the property (parking and proximity matters more in Footscray than people think), and any specific local factors. Mixed soils — older streets have built-up topsoil, newer infill sits on filled clay.

We quote fixed prices up front — no hidden hardware charges, no surprise costs once we start.
