Why Use A Licensed Electrician?
In the Cairns heat, a good ceiling fan makes a real difference, and exhaust fans help clear steam and moisture from bathrooms and laundries.
The Electrical Safety Office lists "replacing a light fitting with a ceiling fan" as electrical work — it must be done by a licensed electrician. DIY electrical work is illegal and dangerous.

Common Questions
Can I replace a ceiling fan myself?
No. Replacing a light fitting with a ceiling fan, or any fan connection, is electrical work and must be done by a licensed electrician.
Do I need to supply the fan?
Usually, yes. I have clients supply their own fan so they get exactly the style, size and features they want, and I install it. Not sure what to buy? I'm happy to advise on what suits the room and ceiling.
Do you replace exhaust fans too?
Yes — bathroom, toilet and laundry exhaust fans.
Can you swap a light for a ceiling fan?
Yes, where the ceiling and location suit.
