Ready to cut the cord, and rabbit ears aren?t cutting it? Cables hanging all over your house, and you want them to disappear? WiFi just doesn?t reach upstairs? You?ve come to the right place! My services include: TV and FM antenna installation and repair, including in attics; old school cable fishing and concealment; installation and repair of coaxial, Ethernet, telephone, speaker, and other low voltage wiring, including repurposing existing cabling; TV wall mounting and cable concealment, especially difficult or unusual locations; limited satellite dish installation, repair, and removal, including Free-To-Air (FTA) dishes. (Sorry, no large C-band dishes, no warranty work on subscription service equipment.) I'm not an equipment dealer, so I won't be trying to sell you anything. I can provide a few items, as a convenience (e.g., antennas, bulk cable), but I?m ready to work with, or advise you on the purchase of your own equipment (e.g., routers, security cameras).

"Ken is a terrific worker and knowledgeable problem solver who took on my old house and my cramped crawl space without even a hint of hesitation or complaint. He worked efficiently and without a pause for more than 10 hours to get a job done in record time----it was much more involved than we thought, and he persisted and got it done, and done right. Thank you Ken! He's a real rarity amongst workmen, absolutely thorough, trustworthy and good natured in the face of all difficulties! A real gem, I'm so glad I hired him!"

"Jay was able to come early which worked for us. He assessed the problem with the leaking valve, offered 2 solutions with clear pricing and clear reasoning as to why he recommended the slightly more expensive one (much less likely to fail in the future!). He accomplished the work quickly, showed me the completed work, and showed me why the other valve had failed, AND the area was clean and dry when he was done. Throughout the visit he was pleasant, polite and respectful. Will be happy to use this company again!!!"

Generator Install questions, 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.

The typical cost of a home generator is around $5,000, but prices range from $400 up to $13,000, depending on a few factors. The most significant cost factor is the generator size, as larger generators that can support more square footage usually cost more. You can install an emergency backup generator for between $500 and $2,000 or a partial-home generator for between $2,000 and $6,500. Whole-home generators usually total between $5,000 and $13,000, with some models climbing as high as $18,000.

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.

You can determine what size generator you need by listing the various appliances it will power during an outage. Write down the start-up watt usage, and then add them all together. 

A 7,500-watt generator will run your refrigerator, freezer, well pump, and lighting circuits without a problem. However, you’ll need an extra 3,000 to 4,500 watts to run your water heater and another 5,000 to 25,000 watts to run your electric furnace. In these instances, a whole-home generator is your best bet for running your critical equipment.

No, you shouldn’t use an extension cord to plug a generator directly into your home without using a transfer switch. That’s because systems like pumps and HVAC fans need a steady power source that might not be available directly from your generator alone. If you bypass the circuit breaker box, you risk damaging your electrical system, creating a risk of electrical fire or electrical shock to you or any workers repairing lines on your local electrical grid.
