Recognized by Entrepreneur magazine among its “Franchise 500,” Mr. Electric franchisees provide these services to both residential and commercial customers at almost 200 locations worldwide. Mr. Electric is a subsidiary of The Dwyer Group, Inc., family of service franchises. Mr. Electric is now one of twelve service brands owned by The Dwyer Group. Each brand shares a Code of Values and culture to live by, which not only outline how we work in a professional environment, but also how we live our daily lives.

"My elderly mother called Mr. Electric to get a light installed over her garage door. Mr. Electric came out and told her they could do that but she needed her electric box relaced and they could do everything for $7000. My mother who has memory problems agreed to the service. After they installed the electric box and wired everything up then they told her that her hot water heater that she had installed a few years ago was not up to code because it was too close to the electric box they just installed but they could move it for her for another $5000. Unfortunately, mom paid for this too. I cannot believe there are humans who are so disgusting that they prey on little old ladies for a living. Please be very careful with these crooks because they have no conscious and will take you for every penny."

Electrical repairs, installations (from ceiling fans to outlets) and more. Brush hogging, gravel driveway smoothing, small dirt moving projects. I have been an electrician for 21 years, and will take on small or large projects. I own some equipment I use for my own property, including tractor with front-end loader, post hole digger, bush hog, and more. If any projects needing done require this equipment, I can get someone out to quote. One thing that sets me apart is if you need a line run out to your building, I will also dig the trench.

"Was get my home renovated and needed a electrician.. Harris Did great work and great price and I was very satisfied.. DEFINITELY will call again."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

No, you shouldn’t use an extension cord to plug a generator directly into your home without using a transfer switch. That’s because systems like pumps and HVAC fans need a steady power source that might not be available directly from your generator alone. If you bypass the circuit breaker box, you risk damaging your electrical system, creating a risk of electrical fire or electrical shock to you or any workers repairing lines on your local electrical grid.

Here’s what you can run with different wattages and types of generators:

Portable generator:

  • 2,000 watts can handle a large appliance like a freezer or refrigerator, plus a few smaller items like phones or computer chargers. 

  • 4,000 watts will keep two large appliances operating and a few smaller devices.

  • 8,000 watts should power most essential appliances and other devices, including a sump pump, well pump, or your dishwasher.

Partial to whole-house generator:

  • 20,000 watts and above will make it seem like your home’s power is still on.

An undersized whole-house generator has the potential to overheat and shut down when you try to run a central AC system. This scenario can not only damage the whole-house generator, but can also trip your home’s breakers or cause electrical damage. To avoid this situation, hire a local generator installer to correctly size your whole-house generator.

As a safety measure, you should always turn off the main breaker while operating your generator’s backup breaker. In addition, you should also switch off all appliance breakers so you don't have a power surge when the main breaker turns back on. And finally, turning off the main breaker prevents back-feeding, which endangers utility workers with the risk of electrocution. Back-feeding could also destroy the electrical circuits of your neighbors if they use the same power network.

While standby generators provide essential backup power, they can fail when you need them most due to lack of maintenance, fuel supply issues, dead batteries, electrical problems, or improper installation. To avoid costly failures, professional installation and regular maintenance are crucial. Licensed technicians ensure safety, uphold warranty requirements, comply with regulations, and provide expert servicing.
