Install 3 ceiling fans and repair a downlight

$800

Bruce ACT, Australia

18th Nov 2025

Hi. I'm looking to have 3 DC ceiling fans installed in bedrooms. They will be replacing a downlight so will be the combined fan/light model (haven't bought them yet). Happy with just the remote - don't need a wall control. I am on the ground floor of a 2 story unit block so don't have access to the ceiling space. Standard 2.4m ceiling. For the downlight, it's in a bathroom and it looks like a wire has come loose so hopefully an easy fix. Very happy to provide photos to help you quote, or answer any other questions you may have. Thanks.
