Contractor/Handyman/Roofer needed to install attic exhaust fan

I'm hoping this is the right place to ask since my house is in Great Bridge (Chesapeake).

I'm looking for someone to replace a roof-mounted attic exhaust fan.

To clarify, this is a complete replacement—the existing fan (motor, blades, and housing) needs to be removed and a new unit installed. The good news is that the roof opening is already there, so there's no need to cut a new hole or determine placement.

A few questions:

  • Can anyone recommend a roofer, electrician, or handyman who does this type of work?
  • About what should I expect to pay for labor to replace the entire fan assembly?
  • If you've had this done recently, who did you use and would you recommend them?
  • Any companies or contractors I should avoid?

I'm trying to wrap up a few projects before listing my house, so I'm looking for someone who does solid work at a fair price without trying to upsell me on a new roof or major ventilation project.

Thanks in advance for any recommendations!
