"I asked Mr Sullivan personally do the work needed. He agreed, but apprentice did the work.My experience thus far has been less than expected, and more importantly shocking with threats, bullying, including threats to put a lien on my home, insults, and the wrong assessment, invoiced for work not done, and work done, but not needed. Mr Sullivan came with an assistant who completed most of the work. Holes were left in my ceiling and wall and in addition garbage was left on the floor. He said he had to go home for lunch and would return. One Friday he called me and said he needed to pay his employee and to send him $850 with no invoice and just a payment link. The electrical box connections were faulty and could have caused an electrical fire. Hired a second professional company to fix the problem and paid over $1000 for the rewiring correctly.nSent several letters to Sullivan Electric to find a solution. Sent formal complaint to Better Business Bureau."

We are extremely passionate about the work that we do. With over 30 years of experience electrical, you can depend on us to provide a high quality service. We understand that the future of our business depends upon our reputation and that is why customer service is by far our highest priority. If you are looking for a professional you can trust, please call today to schedule a no-obligation estimate!

"Reginald was quick to provide a very reasonable quote, half the cost of another electrician, and his crew was available to next day - the soonest that I wanted. His sons showed up on time, did the work according to what I needed and wanted, and cleaned up well after they finished - on time. They moved a ceiling light box, required and added another one, added lights + switch above a built in bookcase, added an entryway light box + repurposed an unused switch, and added a switch for the living room light so I can turn it on when I come down stairs. I’ll be getting more electrical work done in other parts of the house, and I will absolutely contract with them for the work. Highly recommend!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

As long as they have enough fuel, whole-house generators can run for weeks at a time (400 to 500 hours) without suffering too much wear and tear. However, this type of extensive use isn’t ideal if you want to extend the life of your generator.

Two important points. First, some generators may need you to periodically check oil levels every day or so and refill as necessary for safe operation. Second, if your generator uses a fuel tank, keep it regularly full so it doesn’t suddenly shut off. Many backup generators can run through a full tank in a day when they are powering large portions of a home.

Energy output depends on turbine size, average wind speed at your site, and system efficiency. A 5 kW turbine in a good wind location can generate 8,000 to 12,000 kilowatt-hours per year, which may cover a large portion of an average home’s needs. Accurate output estimates require a professional wind assessment and a review of your household’s energy usage patterns.

Yes, in some locations, it is required by the National Electric Code (NEC) to have a transfer switch installed for electrical emergencies. In addition to following electrical code, generator transfer switches ensure your home is fully protected during a power outage. By switching the power from the main breaker to the generator breaker, you can seamlessly operate your HVAC, lights, appliances, devices, and more during an emergency. 

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.

No, this is extremely dangerous, often illegal, and you should never attempt it. If you connect your generator to your home without a transfer switch, the generated power can backfeed, essentially flowing back into the utility lines. Backfeeding exposes a significant threat of fatalities or harm to you and utility personnel, in addition to jeopardizing the structural integrity of your home.
