Fans & ceilings in Atlanta
- Summer humidity and AC use make wobble and loose canopy screws show up fast on porch and bedroom fans.
- Many 1990s–2000s Alpharetta / Roswell homes have light-only boxes — converting to a fan-rated brace is the $259 class, not a $169 swap.
- Condo ceilings with concrete decks need specialty anchors; we do not pretend plastic drywall toggles are enough for a heavy fan.
- Remote pairing and blade balancing are cheap add-ons when the fan is already up but still shakes or ignores the remote.
