"Sergio and his assistant installed an EV charger at my place, and they did an amazing job. I’m so glad I hired them. Their price was reasonable compared to other contractors. I highly recommend them and would definitely use their company again for any future jobs."

"Robert did an amazing job installing several 3-way Leviton WiFi smart switches in the stairwell of my home. He was very professional, detail oriented with the install, and did a great job sharing the info with me on how he set things up! The work areas were all cleaned up and he took his time to make sure everything was pristine. I definitely recommend Robert if you’re looking to have any electrical work done. Thank you!"

"We hired ADI Electrical on 2/5/24 to do 5 different electrical jobs on our home, replace a fixture under the cabinet in the kitchen, supply and install floor outlet in the family room, supply and install new outlet for the garage ceiling, remove outlet in an old furnace closet, install new doorbell by move existing doorbell transformer to attic and fish ethernet cable from attic to junction box on side of house. Alvaro gave us a detailed estimate on 1/26 and we like their website which is very thorough and precise in its presentation. Michael the administrator in the office was very helpful in setting up appointments and anything else that was needed. Santo, Alex and Sam Adi came out on 2/6 to do the electrical work and we are extremely pleased with their attentiveness to detail and accomplishing everything that needed to be done. All the areas were cleaned up and everything was left spotless. We are very satisfied with the electrical services, and we highly recommend them."

Generator Install FAQs, answered by experts

If you have a transfer switch properly installed, the generator and main electrical power cannot feed the system at the same time. However, you should still shut off the power at your main circuit breaker panel before activating the generator. If you do that, you’ll simply need to shut off the generator and reset your circuit breaker once the local power comes back on.

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.

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.

The cost to install a whole-house generator averages $5,200, with a typical price range of $1,500 to $8,900. However, total costs can vary from $400 for a small portable unit to over $18,000 for a large-capacity system. The most significant cost factor is the generator's size and capacity, but other variables include the brand, fuel type, and labor for assembly and installation.

Generator costs can be broken down by type:

  • Portable or Emergency Backup Generators (1kW–7.5kW): $500 to $2,000

  • Partial-Home Generators (9kW–20kW): $2,000 to $6,500

  • Whole-House Generators (22kW–48kW): $5,000 to $18,000

To avoid paying for more power than you need, consider hiring an electrician to calculate the electrical load for your essential appliances. It is also recommended to get at least three quotes to find the best deal for your specific needs and budget.

Generators are usually sized by running watts and starting watts. Ideally, you’ll want a generator that can offer both the necessary running watts and starting watts for everything you need to power without going beyond 90% of its capacity. Calculate your home’s electrical load based on the breakers in your home or adding up the appliance and lighting needs of connected rooms.
