"Extremely Disappointed – Unprofessional and Unreliable Service I don’t usually leave reviews, but after my experience with this electrical company, I feel it’s necessary to warn others. From the start, working with this contractor has been nothing but frustrating and disappointing. This company was hired as a subcontractor during the construction of my new home. One of the tasks was to terminate several Cat5 cables—a simple, straightforward job that should’ve been completed without issue. When they sent an electrician out in December, he managed to complete two of the cable terminations but said he needed help accessing the remaining cables. Instead of following through, the company avoided responsibility and continuously made excuses, claiming the job was “outside their scope” despite already starting the work. At no point was it communicated to me that terminating the remaining cables would be my responsibility. In fact, the same company completed other terminations throughout the house without issue. What’s worse is that after waiting months for a resolution, I—someone with no electrical experience—was able to locate and make the cables accessible myself. If I could manage that, there’s no reason a professional couldn’t have done the same. On top of all this, I was given two completely different price quotes for the same job. Initially, I was told the first hour would be waived and subsequent hours would be billed at a fair rate. Later, that rate increased without explanation. When I asked about the conflicting quotes, instead of providing clarity, the contractor refused to continue the work altogether. Let me be clear: This issue was never the homeowner’s responsibility—it was a clear lack of communication, follow-through, and professionalism on their part. If you’re considering hiring this company, think twice. They’ve shown a complete disregard for their responsibilities and zero concern for customer satisfaction. I would not recommend them to anyone."

We are home service and repair experts. Unlike many service companies who try to perform all types of work, including new construction, commercial construction, and industrial jobs, we focus on existing residential homes day in and day out. Since 1975, OnTime Service has been delivering high-quality, professional services to Daphne, AL, and surrounding areas. In 2014, we began a heating and cooling division. In November 2016, we starting offering plumbing services to our customers. We are very picky about the heating and cooling technicians, electricians and plumbers we hire. We conduct extensive background checks on prospective employees and we perform random drug tests. We insist that our employees are professional, neat and clean, that they have no visible tattoos or piercings and that they are non smokers. If an OnTime Service employee ever smokes, swears or leaves a mess in your home, our service will be free.

"Great service!!!"

"I posted a good review about Greg Miller a few months back but forgot to come back & finish my evaluation. I couldn't remove my original review, so I decided to post an update. Long story short: He replaced a few ceiling fans and a couple of light fixtures in my house. One of the ceiling fans ended up dysfunctional after about a week. The fan still worked but he lights themselves would not work. Keep in mind that one of his previous comments to me was "I guarantee all of my work" Well, I called him to let him know that one of the fans he just installed stopped working after a week. He finally made it out after 4 or 5 days (after making excuses a couple of times) & removed the fan. When I asked him if it was installed correctly he got all pissy & said that I could just do it myself. Well, I ended up getting the part & replacing it myself. It works fine now. Perhaps it was a faulty fan, however, when I simply asked him if he might have installed it incorrectly he went ballistic. Kept saying that he was a master electrician & that he was too busy working other jobs that would actually pay him, even though I paid him about $600-$700 to install a few ceiling fans. He kept saying that I was jealous that he made so much money (out of the blue) which I found rather amusing, especially considering he practically begged me for cash both times he came to my house. When I told him that a negative review would do the trick, he told me that no one would believe me since his reviews were always so great. I knew something was seriously off about him from the moment I met him. Anyway, avoid him like the plague if you're looking for a "real" electrician in the Mobile/Baldwin County area."

FAQs for generator installation projects in Lillian, AL

Installing a whole-house generator costs about $5,000 on average. Prices range from $1,550 to $8,500, depending on size, brand, fuel type, and assembly. The size of your whole-house generator is the most significant cost factor, with large homes with high energy demands costing the most to power. Types of whole-home generators include:

  • Portable generators with 1kW–7.5kW capacity: $500–$2,000

  • Partial generators with 9kW–20kW capacity: $2,000–$6,300

  • Whole-house generators with 22kW–48kW: $5,000–$18,000

When maintained properly, a whole-house generator can last up to 20 years. Costs to maintain and repair generators vary by location and type of generator, but you can expect to pay about $150 to $300 per year for annual generator maintenance checks. An experienced generator service technician will inspect your generator’s engine filter, starting mechanism, fuel, lubrication, and coolant levels to keep your generator in good working condition for as long as possible.

When choosing the right size generator for your needs, consider a few items to help calculate the wattage you’ll need. Start by determining which household items and appliances you want to power, and then add the wattages together. Check out the wattage of these essential appliances:

  • Refrigerator: 600 watts

  • Large dehumidifier: 700 watts

  • Large window air conditioner: 1,400 watts

  • Water heater: 3,000 watts

Running home appliances like these requires a partial or whole-house generator. A portable generator may be enough to power your home if you only plan to keep a refrigerator and freezer running. 

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.

The value of installing a whole-house generator is that your home has guaranteed power, even if the power grid in your area is down. Whether a whole-house generator is worth installing in your home depends on how often you use it, your home’s location, and your lifestyle. For example, installing a whole-house generator is likely worth it if you:

  • Experience frequent or prolonged power outages

  • Work from home

  • Store a lot of cold food

  • Have a sump pump

  • Have a pump for well water

  • Use electronic medical devices

  • Live in a climate requiring heating or cooling
