What it usually is
Wobble is often loose blade screws, a loose mounting bracket or one unbalanced blade. A fan that shakes hard may need a better support for the box, or a new fan.
What to do first
Turn the fan off, and tighten the blade and bracket screws only if you can reach them safely. Do not run a fan that shakes hard.

Federal Way is a large suburban city of subdivisions, townhomes and apartment complexes that mostly grew in recent decades. Many Federal Way homes are newer, so common calls are for fixture repair, valve problems and worn-out water heaters rather than failing old pipe.
