"I can highly recommend New Design Electric. I contacted them to install a car charger in my garage. I knew nothing about this, and James explained what needed to be done and patiently answered all my questions. The job increased in scope when it was determined my electrical panel had to be replaced or a second panel installed in order to accommodate the new circuit. I was provided with clear explanations of the alternatives and cost estimates. James and his crew went above and beyond to put the charger exactly where I wanted it in the garage. The work was done in a very professional and timely manner. And, when my new car arrived sooner than expected, James accommodated my schedule and completed the installation the next day. I could not have asked for more."

"Rick's electrical work was clean, simple and, in a word, elegant. We started by replacing our patchwork of boxes at home with a single service, went on to wire several outbuildings on another property, had him install security lighting for us, and referred him to several friends and family members. Then we discovered that he also offers handyman services! We've been in heaven ever since -- this man is a treasure!
We've had to wait occasionally while he handles emergencies for others, but that comes with the territory when a person is as skilled as Rick is. We're really happy to have him to call on when things go wrong.

"Simon was the Sales Rep. Nice guy. After 3 estimates, Simon contacted me. I decided to hear him , making his estimate the 4th one. Without any commitments, he order a company he works with "Triple M Roofing" to come and cover my entire roof to protect from rain since it was leaking. That jesture convince me to hire them, not only for their kindness but also for the price. $23,000 got me an entire new roof, missing fascia boards installed and replaced 3 more that were damaged, Gutters installed on the front area of my home. I am now happy worry free enjoying my new roof. If in need of a new roof Expert Home Builders works with a Top Notch Company; "Triple M Roofing" that would not disappoint. They're clean, fast, knowledgeable, and expert on Roofs. I highly recommend them."

"I had RG Construction come out to give me a bid to build an ADU on the side of my home. Richard, the owner of the company, was a great guy and easy to talk to. When discussing my vision for my ADU, Richard was super polite and listened to everything I had to say. He recommended me some ideas, while still trying to incorporate what I wanted. RG Construction’s bid was higher than some of the other bid’s I got, but I went with them because after having a talk with Richard, he felt very trustworthy and made me feel safe with my investment. He was very responsive throughout the entire project, answered all the questions I had and made sure I was completely happy with the work performed. I’m picky when it comes to choosing a contractor and I can confidently say, I would give RG Construction 10 stars if were possible. Great owner, great team and great work."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

No, you should never plug a generator directly into a wall outlet in your house. This practice is extremely dangerous, often illegal, and can cause "back-feeding," where power from the generator flows back into utility lines, creating a life-threatening hazard for utility workers. It can also damage your home's electrical system, including appliances like pumps and HVAC fans. If the main power is restored while the generator is connected, it can destroy the generator and cause an electrical fire. To safely connect a generator, you must use a professionally installed transfer switch or an interlocking kit, which prevents back-feeding by disconnecting your home from the utility grid before the generator provides power.

Many services include assembling the unit and securing it in the window. Confirm with your provider.

In many cases, yes. There are models called dual-fuel generators and fuel switches, but only between certain types of fuel. For example, with the right setup you can convert a generator from natural gas to propane. Some allow switching between diesel and gasoline. There are even tri-fuel generators available in some cases, which adds a large layer of security if you are worried about fuel availability in times of crisis. Always check your generator capabilities and manual instructions before trying to switch fuels. Some generators can use another fuel but may need a fuel conversion kit to prep them first.

It’s usually better to repair your generator if it isn’t working properly, as it will typically be much more affordable and should yield similar results. Generator repairs cost around $300 on average, while installing a new whole-house generator costs around $5,000 on average. The only exception is if you know your generator is reaching the end of its useful life, usually between 30 and 40 years. If you have an older generator, you could face multiple repairs in the coming years, which might mean that a full replacement will be more cost-effective over time.

To reduce AC startup power for a whole-house generator, install a soft start kit or hard start capacitor, which lowers the initial surge by gradually ramping up the compressor. Using a smart load manager can also help by staggering startup loads, preventing a system overload and future costly repairs.
