WALNUT GROVE
Walnut Grove service from Hayes Electrical. Call (337) 570-2327.
Hayes Electrical handles ceiling fan installation for homes and businesses in Walnut Grove and the surrounding Southwest Louisiana area. Licensed, bonded, and backed by our Lifetime Craftsmanship Guarantee.
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 Walnut Grove often hits the same problem in older homes: the existing box is a standard pancake rated for a light fixture, not the 50+ lb dynamic load of a fan. NEC 314.27(C) requires a fan-rated box; the wrong box will fail in service.
We install Westinghouse, Hampton Bay, or Hunter fan-rated braces between joists (or a saddle-mount box on an exposed beam) before mounting the fan. Where attic access exists, we add the brace from above; where it does not, we use a listed expanding old-work fan brace. Fan/light combos with a remote control get a dedicated capacitor module sized for the motor, and we test the speed control on each rotation setting.
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 the second switch leg. We will tell you on the first visit.
Walnut Grove is a Lake Charles neighborhood inside city limits, so electrical permits are issued by the City of Lake Charles Building and Permit Division. We pull the permit and coordinate inspections. Permit work runs under LA Lic #73821. You do not touch the paperwork.
Lifetime Craftsmanship Guarantee on every install. If our work fails because of how we put it in, we come back and fix it at no charge. Documented in writing at handoff and stays with the home.
Here is the no-spin cut on ceiling fan installation. Same answer we would give a friend in Westlake or Carlyss, whether or not we end up winning the job.
Times are typical, not guaranteed. Traffic, weather, and parts on hand can shift them. We will tell you a real window when you call.

Real reviews from real customers across Lake Charles, Sulphur, Moss Bluff, and the surrounding parishes.
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.
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!
Yes. We add a new switch leg from the wall and a fan-rated box at the ceiling. The work is usually one day for a single fan location.
Usually a slightly bent blade or unbalanced blade set. 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 replace the box.
Yes if it carries a UL or ETL listing. We will install Hampton Bay, Hunter, Minka, Westinghouse, and most major brands without issue.
