"I hired M B Electric to install a NEMA 14-50 outlet in my garage for my EV charger and had a great experience. Two technicians came to my home, arrived on time, and handled the job thoroughly and professionally. They inspected the setup carefully and explained everything clearly before starting the work. Since my garage had aluminum wiring, they chose the safer approach of running a separate copper wire to ensure a proper and reliable installation. The work was clean, the outlet was mounted securely, and everything was tested before they finished. They also answered my questions and made sure the charger was working properly. I appreciate their professionalism and quality workmanship. I highly recommend M B Electric for EV charger or outlet installations. Thank you for the excellent service!"

"I had recessed lighting installed with dimmer switches in the bathroom, hallway, bedroom, living room and an outdoor outlet. Very fast and efficient. From start to finish, a little over 3 hrs. A friend of mine recommended me to WCD, and I’m glad he did. WCD HQ is a 5hrs drive from me, but that’s why they’re called We Can Do Ekectrical. More electrical work I need to do real soon."

"I have been wanting to hang flat screen televisions in my son's room and in my master bedroom for years. I finally decided to pull the trigger, but first, I needed new power outlets installed where the television would be mounted. Sergio was the first pro to reach out to me. Sergio scheduled an in home quote with me right away and arrived at the time he said he'd be here. He was very friendly and explained the entire scope of work to me and my wife. We scheduled an install date for two days later. On the day of installation, Sergio again showed up on time. Sergio originally told me that the project would take him approximately 2-3 hours to complete. He completed the project in 1 hour. The quality of his work was absolutely perfect. He even went above and beyond and marked exactly where the studs were behind the wall for me. I highly recommend Sercerval Electric LLC. A+++++ company!!!!!"

Generator Install questions, 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.

With proper maintenance, a whole-house generator can last between 20 and 40 years. The specific lifespan depends on how often and for how long the generator is used, and some models may have their life expectancy rated in hours of operation. To maximize its lifespan, expect to spend around $150 to $300 per year for annual maintenance checks from a qualified technician. During these checks, a technician will inspect the engine filter, starting mechanism, fuel, lubrication, and coolant levels. Consulting your installer and choosing a low-impact fuel like natural gas or diesel can also help ensure your generator lasts as long as possible.

While natural gas generators are costly, they’re a great option for standby power due to the reliability of natural gas as a fuel source. Unlike other fuels, natural gas is delivered through underground pipes, making outages extremely rare and less likely to be affected by the elements. As long as the area isn’t prone to earthquakes, they offer an unlimited supply of natural gas that doesn’t degrade over time or require storage in tanks.

Setting up utilities on a vacant property usually takes at least a few months, or between 6 weeks to 16 weeks. This process requires working with the local planning and zoning department, hiring a building contractor or engineer to design the utility layout, securing permits, laying the lines, and connecting the utilities.

Costs range from $500 to $2,500, depending on generator type and installation complexity.
