"Fernando did an excellent job and I am keeping his contact info for future needs. He is very professional and shows up on time. He made wonderful suggestions on adding power for outdoor lighting and repair and improvement of a switch. Hi recommendation involved hiding the wiring by hooking the 2 devices up to a double switch on an inside wall. Other bidders suggested attaching almost 20 feet of wiring to the exterior of my house. He explained everything very clearly. He noticed an outdoor outlet that wasn't rain proof and suggested changing that out. Finally, his price was very fair and lower than other bids. I highly recommend FH Electric for any electric needs."

We have been in the construction industry for over 10 years. From building ADUs, high-end kitchen remodels, bathroom remodels and home extensions, we have done just about everything under general construction. Our company prioritizes safety, quality and transparency.

"Me and my wife decided recently to get our kitchen remolded. After some time searching for the right guys to do the job we settled on RG Construction. Richard, who is the owner, is a great guy and super informative. He never left any question unanswered or left us uncertain about anything. His crew works quick, and they pay attention to the tiniest detail. They absolutely are worth every dollar and I would recommend RG Construction to any homeowner, and I for sure will be giving them a call back for any work I need done in the future. Me and my wife are absolutely in love with our remodel."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Costs depend on generator type, labor, and additional wiring or transfer switch requirements.

It is safe to run a generator continuously, but you must follow safety protocols to ensure personal and home safety. Read the manufacturer’s instructions for specific recommendations, but the general recommendation is to turn generators off overnight or when you’re away from the house. Overworked generators can pose a fire hazard and if your generator is not in a well-ventilated area, running it continuously could lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.

The cost to install a whole-house generator averages at $5,200, but costs can range from $1,500 to $8,900, depending on the type and size of the generator, and the labor required to install it. To find the best deal while still ensuring the unit meets all the needs of your household, hire an electrician to calculate the electrical load of your must-have appliances and electronics beforehand so you don’t pay for more power than you need. As always, be sure to get at least three quotes to find the ideal fit for your needs and budget.

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

You can determine what size generator you need for a transfer switch by matching the switch to the largest outlet on your generator. Larger generators can power up to 10 circuits, while most 5,000-watt generators can provide power to six circuits. So, if your generator’s largest outlet is 30 amps, you’ll need a 30-amp transfer switch.
