"I chose Elevation Electric to install an outlet in our garage for our new Nissan Leaf because he was the ONLY installer recommended on both the Xcel Energy site and here. I heartily agree. Our new outlet is in a great spot and works perfectly. Joe worked quickly, had to drill through brick walls and cleaned up the mess. He was forced to cancel our initial appointment due to complications on the job before ours. So what did he do? He rescheduled for a Saturday because he hated to have inconvenienced us with the cancellation and he was already booked for the next week. Nice guy, good work!"

"I’m extremely pleased with the work Jon from TORQ Electricians recently completed in my home. This project was much larger than his visit the week before, and once again he delivered outstanding results. He replaced switches and outlets throughout the house, many of which had begun to fail due to age, and the upgrades have given us real peace of mind when it comes to safety. Jon also made several thoughtful recommendations—installing dimmer switches in the kitchen and study, and suggesting a different dimmer style for our living room ceiling fan. These changes have noticeably improved both the functionality and the atmosphere of those rooms. He even identified and replaced a GFCI breaker in the panel that wasn’t up to code, ensuring everything is now safe and compliant. The work has refreshed the look of our interior, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. We’re very glad we chose TORQ Electricians and highly recommend Jon to anyone needing professional, reliable electrical work"

"The electrician, Tom, and the Service Manager, Bill, were exceptionally friendly and worked hard to figure out how to accomplish everything we wanted and needed. They also have amazing value for the work."

"Back in 2024, Jesus and his team did a phenomenal job adding a new circuit/outlet in our garage for our new chest freezer and outlets with USBs for our e-bikes and other gear. He came in the morning to talk about the project and give and estimate and they were able to complete the work same day even though it was a bigger project than I’d originally described in my request. He explained the options well and was able to put everything exactly as we wanted. Very happy with how that project turned out. This year, we hired Jesus’s team again to install new light fixtures in our bathroom (vanity lights and sconces) and move some outlets. Again he and his team did a great job and were lovely to work with. We’ll be reaching out for more assistance with our bathroom reno."

"Really responsive and prompt, especially in the installation phase. We did have a couple of small hiccups, which in my mind a homeowner should expected on literally any remodeling project, and they were resolved quickly. Communication on final details like inspections could have been smoother, but overall the whole process was very clear, well managed, and well executed. Happy with the choice to go with Red Rocks."

Generator Install FAQs, answered by experts

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 most municipalities, you will need a permit to install a permanent home generator, including emergency backup, partial-home, and whole-home generators. A permit for a generator usually costs between $50 and $250, depending on where you live. Your electrician or certified generator installer will usually pull the permit for you—and might be required to do so by your building department—but you’ll be on the hook for the cost of the permit. You should ask your installer before agreeing to any work if they will pull the necessary permits for your project.

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.

Yes, in most municipalities, you will need a permit to install a permanent home generator, including emergency backup, partial-home, and whole-home models. Because these installations involve significant alterations to your home's electrical system and produce exhaust fumes, local governments often require a permit or inspection for safety purposes. A generator permit typically costs between $50 and $250, depending on your location. Your electrician or certified installer can usually handle the permitting process for you, but you will be responsible for the cost. It's a good practice to confirm with your installer that they will pull all necessary permits before work begins.

You can expect a diesel generator to last for up to 30,000 hours of use, which works out to 20 to 25 years with the proper maintenance, of course. That depends on how much you use it, so a diesel generator used for emergencies a couple of times a year will last a lot longer than a generator that takes over for a faulty electrical grid every month for a day or two.
