"We wanted a complete re-wire of our 1961 home. The wiring was non-standard, and in desperate need of upgrade. We called several local vendors in the area, and Mr Electric gave us the best quote. They were very thorough in their pre-sale inspection of our home. The electrician was up front with what he found, and what we needed to get up to code. He (Thomas) also told us that if we wanted to replace fixtures, now was the time, as they would have to be pulled anyway. He also explained that they would minimize interruptions to us, by planning and executing their work in stages, basically room-by-room, in a logical fashion. In addition, we decided to add a transfer switch to run the house on generator during power outages. Thomas integrated that into the install, making sure that key circuits would be powered in an emergency. Overall, I am more than pleased with the service and work from Mr Electric. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!"

"Lance Parker and his team did an excellent job. Lance contacted us the same day we entered the request and came to provide estimate on the date/time we agreed. We had some extenuating circumstances with a sick family member and Lance and his team did everything they could to maintain power in their room with a generator while they worked to remove a power pole and update the home’s power with a new box and physically move the power from a pole to attaching to the home. He coordinated with the power company and inspectors. He also repaired a power issue to the oven inside the home. Evidently it had always been on the incorrect switch. He troubleshot and determined it needed to move from a 40 to 50 switch. Everything looks great and is working beautifully. Thank you!"

Generator Install FAQs, answered by experts

Whole-house generators can run continuously for extended periods, even for weeks at a time (around 400 to 500 hours), as long as they have a sufficient fuel supply. However, this type of extensive use will increase wear and tear and can shorten the generator's overall lifespan. During long periods of operation, it's important to check and refill the engine oil as needed, potentially as frequently as daily depending on the model. If your generator uses a fuel tank, ensure it is kept full to prevent unexpected shutdowns.

It’s usually better to repair your generator if it isn’t working properly, as it will typically be much more affordable and should yield similar results. Generator repairs cost around $300 on average, while installing a new whole-house generator costs around $5,000 on average. The only exception is if you know your generator is reaching the end of its useful life, usually between 30 and 40 years. If you have an older generator, you could face multiple repairs in the coming years, which might mean that a full replacement will be more cost-effective over time.

Many services include assembling the unit and securing it in the window. Confirm with your provider.

Natural gas generators are designed to run for extended periods of time, such as power outages during a natural disaster. Since there’s no limit to the supply of natural gas, they don’t need to stop for refills. However, generators do need maintenance, including pauses to check and add oil. Constantly running them will also cause a lot more wear and tear, leading to a shorter lifespan.

If you’re wondering if you can use your electric vehicle as a backup battery, it depends on whether your EV is compatible with bidirectional charging. This technology allows energy to flow both ways, enabling vehicle-to-home (V2H) backup power, vehicle-to-load (V2L) for appliances and camping, and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) to support the power grid. Compatible EVs convert stored DC energy into usable AC power, helping reduce energy costs and enhance grid stability while providing emergency backup power.
