"Very professional. Prompt responses to all my questions both in person and over email. Electrician arrived on time for both the circuit installation as well as meeting with the city inspector for permit sign off on the follow-up appointment. Installation work was very clean and neat since I am very keen on attention to detail. Highly recommend!"

"My Tech James was the best. He put my worries to ease before installing my chandelier. Very prompt, professional and knew exactly what he was doing. He put on booties to walk in the house and came with a broom and dust pan. Extremely happy with this project."

"Had no working outlets in my rental unit. Another company wanted to replace entire circuit panel for thousands of dollars. Franklin was able to do the repair work for a couple of hundred dollars. Follow up and honesty great. Highly recommended."

"Very professional, great work, and very willing to please. They removed all the knob and tube wiring and brought my house up to current code. And the great thing is, they were very reasonable in price, actually they blew all my other bids out of the water. Five generations of electricians, and it shows. I would recommend them to anyone. Thank you to you both for a great job."

"I used Tami to install a few recessed lights in my house. First of all, Tami is an amazing electrician. He uses good fixtures, materials and wires. He takes his time and never cuts corners. When he opened one of the wall outlets in my house he found a jumble of wires. He did not leave it as it. He removed the old wires, fixed exposed terminals, and repaired a broken box; all without my prompting. When he was done with it, the box was better than new. To install the recessed lighting, he cut the dry walls and ran the wires, installed dimmer switched etc. After he finished installing the lights he wiped the surrounding so that there were no smudges. He vacuumed the floors and took out the thrash. It is rare to find people who don't work because they have to, Tami takes pride in what he does. He is a perfectionist who you can trust will always do a superb job. He was always on time, extremely polite and friendly. He is a true professional. He also takes the time to educate you of the issues and walks through how he plans on fixing an issue. He charges reasonable and I am very happy that I hired him. You will not find a better electrician than him. I am a long-time home owner. Tami is as good as it gets!"

FAQs for generator install projects in Campbell, CA

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.

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 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
