"Brandon (Sunrise Electrical) responded next day to my email. Visited job day after, explained replacement and upgrade to main (burned up) panel, current grounding requirements, , and permit process. Submitted bid next day. This type of work may be twice as expensive as youâ re thinking, but you probably need licensed, bonded , etc. with good equipment and crew. We were confident they would do the job as described. They worked hard to prioritize our repairs even though the our county was in the midst of disastrous storms and there were several emergencies they were dealing with concurrently. Their work included exterior stucco around new panel and crawling under house to attach the new ground wire. They compted us a fix of an adjacent gate latch and repair of a suspect circuit in the garage. Will hire again for repairs or upgrades."

"This was the third electrician I called as the other two I called did not return my calls in spite of repeated messages I left. Dane returned my call and stopped at my house the same day with an estimate. The work was done the following week to my complete satisfaction and the workers were courteous and professional. They even vacuumed the rug after they completed the job. The price turned out to be more than the estimate as more work was required than originally anticipated but it was fair. He is my electrician from now on."

"Tom works to a very high standard and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him. He’s very skilled with decades of experience and I wouldn’t have wanted anyone else to install my generator. Very pleasant guy to be around, high standards all around. A true professional."

"I called the Generator Guy because I knew my generator was due for its service but the company I usually use wouldn’t get back to me. Bryan fit me in right away and came out to do the annual service. Fortunately, while he was there, he noticed that two of my hoses were in bad shape, (which he showed me), and he took care of replacing those for me too. I rely on my generator each winter and it gives me great peace to know that it will be ready to go when the power goes out. I highly recommend and will happily use them in the future."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

Portable generators provide backup power for essential appliances during outages and are easy to relocate.

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.
