Like-for-like light fixture and ceiling fan swaps, dimmers, and smart switches installed cleanly and safely. Serving Paramus homeowners and property managers with upfront pricing and same-week availability.
Ceiling height is the first thing to think about when adding fans to a Paramus home. The ranches and split-levels that fill West Paramus mostly have eight-foot ceilings — lower still in dens and finished basements — which calls for low-profile hugger fans rather than downrod models, so the blades keep the required seven feet of clearance. The second thing is what's inside the ceiling: light fixtures in 1950s and 60s homes usually hang from boxes that were never rated for the weight and wobble of a fan, so a fan-rated brace box is part of the job, not an upsell. Smart-switch upgrades come with their own mid-century catch — many older switch boxes have no neutral wire, and most smart switches require one, so check a box (or choose a no-neutral model) before ordering a houseful of them. Like-for-like fixture swaps, dimmers, and fans are clean, contained jobs in these homes when done methodically, with the breaker off and tested dead.
| Job | Price range |
|---|---|
| Light fixture swap | $110 – $200 |
| Ceiling fan (existing wiring) | $150 – $350 |
| Smart switch / dimmer | $90 – $160 |
| Smart doorbell / Ring install | $125 – $225 |
| Exhaust fan replacement | $175 – $325 |
