Like-for-like swaps at the existing box: the dated dome out, the new fixture in, the fan balanced quiet — and a licensed electrician named for everything beyond the box.
Electrical work is a licensed trade in Michigan, so the honest handyman offer is narrow and useful: exchanging a fixture at a box that already exists, already has power, and already did this job yesterday. Inside that boundary sits most of what a house actually wants — the brass dome from 1994 out, the new flush-mount in, the wobbling fan balanced or replaced.
Ceiling and wall fixtures exchanged like-for-like; ceiling fans replaced where a fan-rated box is already in place, blades balanced and pull chains sorted; vanity lights updated over bathroom mirrors; porch and entry fixtures renewed — a bright, working porch light is cheap civic kindness on a February evening in Flint; and bulb campaigns on stairwells and two-story foyers that have defeated the household ladder.
New circuits, new box locations, switch rewiring, panel work of any kind, and anything that involves running cable belongs to Michigan's licensed electrical trade at any price. This county carries an extra flag worth naming: some 1960s and 70s houses in the region were built with aluminum branch wiring, and connections on those circuits are precisely where a licensed electrician earns the fee. If a swap opens a box and the wiring inside raises that or any other question, the visit stops there and the referral happens on the spot.
Fixture swaps batch beautifully — three fixtures and a fan in one visit make the trip disappear into the list, and it is the standard play for Grand Blanc and Davison homeowners updating a decade of builder-grade lighting in one pass.
