"He is extremely attentive to your needs . What he says will happen , does! He keeps all appointments and thoroughly explains what he plans to do. He is one of the most reliable, ethical , conscience businessman I have ever dealt with. I have recommended him to friends . He actually went out of his way to help Ill friends deal with their generator problems even though he had not installed it. He made arrangements for someone to fix the generator when he was not able. Highly recommended !"

"It was a pleasure to deal with this company. They are extremely knowledgeable in designing an electrical charging station in what was a difficult i situation. My breaker panel and garage were on opposite sides of my home. A solution was given at a reasonable price. I could not be happier. All work was done professionally with great attention to detail. If you are in need of electrical services, donâ t look any further. They are without a doubt, the best."

"Posted a job for a boiler replacement on homeadvisor on thursday and got a call in less than half an hour. Ron, one of the owners, said he could come take a look on saturday morning. I got a quote on monday. I decided to hire them on friday. Jeremy the boiler specialist and other co owner came by the the next day to take a few more pictures and check on a few other things. The boiler we decided on was a special order and took a few weeks to arrive. It came in on a monday and was installed by thursday. They started on thursday morning with a two man crew. Around lunch the Jeremy came by to see how things were going. Around 2pm an other two guys showed up to help. At about 3:30 the co owner and boiler specialist came by to oversee the final part of the install and operational testing. I was originally told it would be a two day install. They didn't just replace the boiler, they replaced the expansion tank, dual zone control box, etc. They worked until around 7pm to get it all done in one day. They bled all the radiators in the house and made sure they were heating properly. They took all the old parts with them and left no trash behind. Everybody from this company was extremely professional. They arrived within five minutes of the time they said they would be at my house. Nobody could beat the quote they gave me for the install. Any questions I had were responded to in 30 minutes or less. The install looks amazing so much shiny copper pipe. Cawiamca gave me a 3 year warranty where they will take care of all the labor and parts if anything goes wrong. This was by far the best experience I have ever had with a company coming to my house to do something.They performed consistently above my expectations. They will be the first people I call if I need any more work done on my heating system. I highly recommend Cawiamca."

"The electrician Kyle was professional , honest and affordable. He was punctual and courteous. I hired him for the wiring and panel upgrade but I requested he change my six GFCI outlets and check the older outlets. He checked the outlets that I was worried about -they were good. He did need to replace a different inside outlet and 2 of the 4 outside outlets. He was kind and explained why they needed to be replaced. One just was no longer working. The other 2 were not up to code actually were a fire hazard. I am female senior citizen grateful I hired Elevate Electric."

Generator Install FAQs, 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.

Costs depend on generator type, labor, and additional wiring or transfer switch requirements.

In most cases, there are no tax credits available for home generators. However, that’s a general statement that applies to federal tax credits, so you might have access to state or local tax incentives. You can check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables & Efficiency (DSIRE) for more information about your area. If you hire a reliable home generator installer, they should also know if there are any state or local perks you can use to reduce your installation costs, including tax breaks and rebates.

Natural gas and electricity rates vary significantly based on location, and pricing can change over time, too. It’s possible that in locations where natural gas is particularly inexpensive, it will cost less than grid-based electricity will. However, you should also factor in the generator’s initial costs and maintenance needs, as well as its noise level and if it can comfortably power all your home appliances.

The average cost to install a home generator is $5,200, but total costs can range from $500 to $18,000 or more. The final price depends on several factors, including the generator's size, type, brand, fuel source, and the cost of labor and assembly. The generator's size is the most significant cost factor, as units that can power larger homes with higher energy demands cost more.

Cost breakdowns by generator type are typically as follows:

  • Portable or Emergency Backup Generators (1kW–7.5kW): $500–$2,000

  • Partial-Home Generators (9kW–20kW): $2,000–$6,500

  • Whole-House Generators (22kW–48kW): $5,000–$18,000

To ensure you get the right size unit for your needs without overpaying, consider hiring an electrician to calculate the electrical load of your essential appliances. It is also recommended to get at least three quotes from qualified installers to find the best fit for your budget.
