"I recently had an electrical home inspection performed by Jimenez electrical contractors, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the service. The inspector was incredibly thorough, knowledgeable, and professional throughout the entire process. They took the time to explain every detail and provided valuable insights into the electrical system of my home. The scheduling was smooth and convenient. They also arrived on a timely manner. I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of a reliable and comprehensive electrical home inspection. They exceeded my expectations in every way!"

"We have used these guys a couple of times for a couple of different projects. Tony specifically came out to do a small job for us in a home that we were getting ready to sale. We busted out a kitchen wall and he showed up and not only hung out new lights and installed our outlets but also told us the best way to re route our electrical for our stove for it to be stable. We used them again on a property that we just purchased where new electrical was being run. He came out and wired our meter for our temporary meter box and it passed inspections with out any issue at all. This company takes pride in their business and I recommend them over and over to people asking for trustworthy, dependable and affordable electricians."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

Homeowners can often access federal tax credits, such as the Investment Tax Credit (ITC), which covers a percentage of installation costs. Many states and utilities offer additional rebates, grants, or performance-based incentives. These programs can significantly lower your upfront investment. Check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables and Efficiency (DSIRE) or contact your local energy office for current offers.

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

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.

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.
