As a small business owner I am the only employee of this company, which I hope to someday pass down to my sons. Jobs are billed differently depending on the size. Customers are charged in two ways; either by the hour, or with a bid total. Often times the bid is a better option for the customer, which allows them to plan ahead. We accept cash, check, & all major credit cards.

"We were really pleased with Warkins and would use him again in the future as well as recommend him to other’s seeking an electrician in the greater Rockford area. We provided a list of items including replacing light switches that were malfunctioning, new outlet installation in an unfinished basement, outlet installation in a bathroom for a bidet, hardwiring a Ring doorbell, replacing all old hardwired smoke alarms, and troubleshooting/ replacing malfunctioning/ non-functional outlets. Rob was pleasant, communicative, and we were pleased with the price. One thing that really impressed me is that we were told several years ago that we would need an additional box if we added additional outlets. After looking at our box, he assured me that we had plenty of space and we wouldn’t need an additional box. I was really impressed with his honesty and integrity as he could have easily taken advantage of our lack of knowledge and fear when it came to electrical around the house!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

No, you shouldn’t use an extension cord to plug a generator directly into your home without using a transfer switch. That’s because systems like pumps and HVAC fans need a steady power source that might not be available directly from your generator alone. If you bypass the circuit breaker box, you risk damaging your electrical system, creating a risk of electrical fire or electrical shock to you or any workers repairing lines on your local electrical grid.

To reduce AC startup power for a whole-house generator, install a soft start kit or hard start capacitor, which lowers the initial surge by gradually ramping up the compressor. Using a smart load manager can also help by staggering startup loads, preventing a system overload and future costly repairs.

When properly maintained, natural gas generators can last a long time, as much as 20 to 40 years. They have relatively few needs compared to generators with other fuel types. However, the generator’s lifespan ultimately depends on how often the generator is used and for how long it’s left running.
