Hayes electrical did a great job with my attic wiring issue. They were efficient; figured out the problem, described it to me in laymen's details and the plan to correct it, they cleaned up the area after. The problem was solved. Great personable interaction and will use them again.

Ceiling Fan Installation in Prien Lake
Prien Lake service from Hayes Electrical. Call (337) 570-2327.
Hayes Electrical handles ceiling fan installation for homes and businesses in Prien Lake and the surrounding Southwest Louisiana area. Licensed, bonded, and backed by our Lifetime Craftsmanship Guarantee.
Prien Lake service area.
From our Lake Charles shop.
Trucks dispatch out of 803 W Bayou Pines Dr, Ste D, Lake Charles, LA 70601. Most days a crew is already inside Calcasieu Parish on another job, so the drive is short. For after-hours calls we roll one out from the shop.
Ceiling fan installation in Prien Lake is usually a clean swap because newer construction shipped with fan-rated boxes in the bedrooms and main living areas. The work is mostly mounting the new fan and getting the speed control or remote receiver paired correctly.
We confirm the existing box is fan-rated per NEC 314.27(C) (a standard 35 lb pancake box is not, a fan-rated brace box is). For homeowner-supplied Hampton Bay, Hunter, or Westinghouse fans we install per the manufacturer instructions, mount the canopy, pair any included remote receiver, and test on each speed setting. For covered-patio fans, we use damp-rated or wet-rated units per NEC 410.10 matched to the exposure. If we find the original box is light-only (rare but possible in early-2000s construction), we install an expanding old-work fan brace from below.
Like-for-like fan replacement does not require a permit. New fan locations on a previously light-only circuit may or may not depending on whether the existing switch box can host a second switch leg. We will tell you on the first visit.

What Southwest Louisiana says about our work
Real reviews from real customers across Lake Charles, Sulphur, Moss Bluff, and the surrounding parishes.
Hayes Electrical is the most professional and friendly electrical service in the Lake Charles area! After we were having issues with our Generac and wanted to be prepared for the hurricane season, Hayes Electrical was quick to diagnose and repair the issue! Mr. Dorian was very polite and knowledgeable! When he came out to make the repair he kept us in the loop about exactly what he was doing and made sure we understood how to operate the Generac! Would definitely recommend Hayes Electrical to everyone!
We turned to the company for help to find out the reason why our generator stopped working, fix the problem and start it. We were served by Dorian, a very nice young man, a good specialist and a professional in his field. Everything went well, Dorian did diagnostics, invited a mechanic and our generator works. We recommend this company if you have problems with the generator.
My parents have an older home and was having an issue with circuits overloading. We contacted Hayes after seeing they had rave reviews. They sent someone right over, diagnosed the issue and gave us a few pricing package options. We selected the pricing package that was most affordable for us and scheduled their appointment to come back and do the work. On the day scheduled, two gentlemen arrived promptly, did a walk through assessment and helped us understand everything they would be doing and got right to work! They were professional, efficient and very thorough. My parents circuits were rerouted and are working better than ever!
Common questions for Ceiling Fan Installation in Prien Lake
Does my newer Prien Lake home already have a fan-rated box where I want the fan?
Usually yes in bedrooms and main living areas. We confirm on the visit. If the box is light-only, we install an expanding old-work fan brace from below.
Why does my new Prien Lake ceiling fan wobble?
Usually a slightly bent blade or an unbalanced blade set from shipping. We use a blade balance kit and the wobble resolves. If the box is not fan-rated, the wobble is louder and the fix is to upgrade the box.
Will you mount the fan I bought myself for my Prien Lake room?
Yes if it carries a UL or ETL listing. We install Hampton Bay, Hunter, Westinghouse, Minka, and most major brands without issue.
