Re: Saving Money By Installing Your Own Ceiling Fans
I hear these stories from inspectors HO doing theirs own work
they have to inspect, re-inspect and re-re-inspect theirs work, one inspector said it got to the point, he wanted to take his tools and do it himself just so he don't have to return to that house again and not only HO, Tree Fitty guys do the same work out there.

Re: Saving Money By Installing Your Own Ceiling Fans
That's exactly right. But that's only 1 part of the job. The 2nd part of the job is changing out the box without disturbing any of the plaster and lathe. Sometimes rewiring an old kitchen light to a ceiling fan can take all day, some take 15 minutes.
