"When I was looking for an electrician power up, turned out to be the easiest and quickest way to find an electrician that I needed. They worked with me with a schedule that allowed me to continue daily activities and events I was still able to get what I needed done in a week’s time. I am extremely pleased with the outcome. I have a new outlet in my master bath and I have new smoke detectors along with carbon monoxide. I would certainly refer anyone to power up."

"Updated bathroom electrical during remodeling. They came the day after I called them for an estimate for 1 hour of work and completed it immediately. Also gave me an estimate for a household generator. I would hire them again."

"Jesse is a very pleasant young man, fully trained and capable of any electric repair or installation. He came on time, did his work quickly and cleaned up after himself. I am very satisfied and will call "Down the Road Electric" again when the need arises. Rick Ruppert, retired Accountant and homeowner."

"I would recommend Nate Oakley for electrical and other repairs needed around the home. He installed 3 new outdoor light fixtures. Cleaned up the Wasp nest that had caused the front lights from working. The rates he charged were very reasonable. I asked him about the cabinet under the sink, the bottom of the cabinet had warped. He replaced it a few days later. When his schedule cleared. He also replaced the overhead light in my utility room. I also hired him to put up a backsplash in my kitchen. It is almost completed and he did a wonderful job. On the first day of the job he even carried down my garbage for me. He also took down and replaced my over the stove microwave, I will be calling him again as projects come up."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Setting up utilities on a vacant property usually takes at least a few months, or between 6 weeks to 16 weeks. This process requires working with the local planning and zoning department, hiring a building contractor or engineer to design the utility layout, securing permits, laying the lines, and connecting the utilities.

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

Generators run on a variety of fuel types, ranging from natural gas to solar power. Keep in mind that fuel costs varying by type:

  • Natural gas: $2,000–$21,000 per year 

  • Liquid propane: $2,000–$21,000 per year

  • Diesel: $3,000–$20,000 per year

  • Gasoline: $500–$3,000 per year

  • Solar generator: $2,000–$25,000 per unit

  • Battery backup: $10,000–$25,000 per unit

Carbon monoxide emissions aren’t only dangerous to human life, but they also harm our planet. While natural gas generators emit lower levels of CO than other fuel sources, there are still ways to reduce emission levels. For example, shop around for an eco-friendly generator that complies with current emission standards. Also, make sure your generator is serviced regularly to avoid CO buildup. 

A 1,500 square foot home will likely need a 15kW to 20kW generator. When deciding on whole-house generator size, add up the total wattage of the devices that you’d like to continue running during a power outage. That way, you can ensure you purchase a generator that can power your necessary appliances or medical equipment during an electrical emergency.
