Customers say: Super punctual

"Three light fixtures installed to existing wiring, less than an hour to survey work, perform task, and do paperwork...$387...Really surprised my elderly parents and me...Just found out through this experience, they have taken over the electrical for Ragsdale Heating and Air, liked it better when Ragsdale did their own electrical...So buyer beware when dealing with this company."

"We hired them last year to install a motion detector over our garage and to disconnect an outdoor junction box and wiring used by the previous owner. They did a great job and were very courteous. They were very responsive to our request and scheduled the appointment for the next day."

"Came in, got straight to work. Lights looked amazing. Only problem was they wouldn’t patch 2 small holes from removing old fixture. I took care of it no problem but it would be common courtesy to take care of that for your customer. Other than that, honestly the guys were extremely professional. He wanted to make sure my lights lined up with existing fixtures so in an event I ever changed it, it could match and looked uniformed to the ones installed. I’d definitely use them again for sure."

"We hired TE to install an outlet under our kitchen sink. I was worried there might be complications with the counter and cabinets in the way but everything went smoothly and Kyle did a great job with the outlet! I would hire them again for any additional electrical work we needed."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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. 

An undersized whole-house generator has the potential to overheat and shut down when you try to run a central AC system. This scenario can not only damage the whole-house generator, but can also trip your home’s breakers or cause electrical damage. To avoid this situation, hire a local generator installer to correctly size your whole-house generator.

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

No, you should never plug a generator directly into a wall outlet in your house. This practice is extremely dangerous, often illegal, and can cause "back-feeding," where power from the generator flows back into utility lines, creating a life-threatening hazard for utility workers. It can also damage your home's electrical system, including appliances like pumps and HVAC fans. If the main power is restored while the generator is connected, it can destroy the generator and cause an electrical fire. To safely connect a generator, you must use a professionally installed transfer switch or an interlocking kit, which prevents back-feeding by disconnecting your home from the utility grid before the generator provides power.

Here’s what you can run with different wattages and types of generators:

Portable generator:

  • 2,000 watts can handle a large appliance like a freezer or refrigerator, plus a few smaller items like phones or computer chargers. 

  • 4,000 watts will keep two large appliances operating and a few smaller devices.

  • 8,000 watts should power most essential appliances and other devices, including a sump pump, well pump, or your dishwasher.

Partial to whole-house generator:

  • 20,000 watts and above will make it seem like your home’s power is still on.
