"I can t recommend Markus highly enough. Once contacted, he was prompt to respond and provided a written formal quote, which included cost breakdown of all materials and labor. He upgraded lighting and other electrical associated with our full kitchen remodel. The materials he recommended and installation fit our needs perfectly. The job was performed in 2 phases, before drywall and after drywall/texture/paint. Each time the workspace was left clean and free of work debris. He is courteous and able/willing to make changes on the fly. A true professional."

"We had a very old heater in our mobile home that finally died. Called Wighton's and Patrick came out and gave us lots of information and a quote on a new unit. He was very personable and helpful. We then had Ivan install our unit. He was very professional, polite, and informative. From beginning to end, this was a very positive experience. Even felt the price was good!"

"I purchased a tiny home off of Facebook Marketplace at a great price, but unfortunately the electrical work was very subpar, and even had the potential to start a fire. Colin and his son came out and managed to come up with solutions to the multiple issues and had all the work completed within a few hours. If you need electrical work, I would definitely recommend Hurley's Electric!"

"Bruce spent 2.5 hours searching for the cause of the problem because it wasn't readily apparent. It perplexed him but he persevered in spite of my leading him astray (insisting the plug in back of a cabinet wasn't a GFI breaker [it was]). Along the way he gave me an excellent education in how electricity works, fixed a couple of other plugs with loose wires and discussed all the options in a professional, friendly manner. I felt comfortable with him and trusted he was giving me the absolute best advice. 5 Star will be coming back to install some new LED fixtures in the garage, which he did not insist on selling to me but let me order exactly what I wanted myself."

Generator Install FAQs, answered by experts

A home that is 2,500 square feet will likely need a 20kW to 25kW generator. Consult your local generator installer to confirm the generator size needed to power your home before purchasing a new one. Be sure to consider how much power your necessary devices need to run.

If your home already has a grinder pump and you’re still noticing issues (like frequently clogged toilets and sinks), it could be time to upgrade your grinder pump. Start by checking your existing horsepower. If there are four or fewer people living in your home, using a 1/2-horsepower grinder pump should be sufficient. Larger households should consider investing in a 1-horsepower grinder pump to maximize wastewater removal efforts.

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.

Natural gas generators are designed to run for extended periods of time, such as power outages during a natural disaster. Since there’s no limit to the supply of natural gas, they don’t need to stop for refills. However, generators do need maintenance, including pauses to check and add oil. Constantly running them will also cause a lot more wear and tear, leading to a shorter lifespan.

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.
