"They told us "Our dispatch fee to come out is $39 and we waive that towards any work or repairs, including diagnostics." The electrician went to check and stayed at the property for less than 5 mins after confirmation to do full diagnostic of the electrical system. I don't think less than 5 mins is enough to run a full diagnostic and later on advise to upgrade the whole panel."

"I found Mr Sullivan on HomeAdvisor gave him a call which he picked up right away which was a plus, but than he gave me an estimate over the phone without coming down to look at it made it seem like the minimum he would charge was $350 for instal of four outlets, troubleshoot and repair outlets in kitchen, and repair backyard light. The next day he arrived a little late installed four outlets as discussed, but turned out nothing was wrong with the outlets in the kitchen he said the " GFCI where doing what they were supposed to do", and the back yard light was fixed by replacing the old sensor that rain water damaged with a new one, but replaced it with a black sensor rather than a matching white, which I was fine with in the end, unfortunately in the end he didn't recalculate the fact that he really didn't had to do anything with the outlets in the kitchen yet he was still trying to charge me $25 more for the unmatching backyard sensor. I am not an electrician and he and his employee did get the job done, but was just dissapointed that I believe he did not charge a fair price for work he done seemed too expensive to me usually an instal of lights or switches are around $50 a pop and the sensor $25 itself just didn't add up to me other than that they got the mission accomplished."

"We replaced the original roof on our house. I expressed my concerns about re-installation of the lightening rods to my roofer. We have had at least three direct hits since they were originally installed in 2013. My roofer called William who was very helpful. William offered to come out an make sure everything was 100% after re-installation. He came the day after I called and I'm glad he did. While the reinstall was the best he had seen (his words) there were issues after 5 year and 3 strikes that needed addressed. He fixed those and now I have a new roof and I am certain the lightening rods will work as intended. Highly recommend this company."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

You can determine what size generator you need for a transfer switch by matching the switch to the largest outlet on your generator. Larger generators can power up to 10 circuits, while most 5,000-watt generators can provide power to six circuits. So, if your generator’s largest outlet is 30 amps, you’ll need a 30-amp transfer switch.

Costs range from $500 to $2,500, depending on generator type and installation complexity.

Sizing a generator is a careful process that requires calculating the electrical load of your entire house. You have to take into account every device you want to use and their wattage requirements, plus the wattage needed to start them, and look for a generator that can safely run all that at around 80% capacity.

In more practical terms, a small home can run on a 10,000-watt generator (and if you only want to power a few key appliances, much less than that). A mid-sized home may need something between 15,000 and 22,000 watts. Larger homes require 25,000 watts or more. 

Generally, you’ll want to keep between 60 and 70 feet between the generator and the transfer switch. There are a few reasons for this, including:

  • The distance reduces the noise coming from the generator into your home.

  • It increases efficiency because you won’t have a voltage drop from this short of a distance.

  • Prevents carbon monoxide poisoning: keep at least 15 feet between your generator and an open window. 

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.
