We live in a 2 year old townhome where we want to do the following electrical work:
There are light fixtures in living area and in the dining.
- Dining - Remove existing hanging lamp, move the fixture by 3 feet to the center of the room (fish wire through joists), mount a different dome lamp on top.
- Living - Remove existing hanging lamp, move the fixture by 3 feet to center of the room, CONVERT TO A FAN FIXTURE, and leave it (so we fan fix fan later).
I understand that fan fixture require additional support in the joists that can be bought in home depot or lowes for 20$.
Electricians are quoting 600$ for this. Do you think its that expensive.
Hindsight: I should have done this as pre-wiring when we built the townhome. Would have costed much less.
