"Wasn’t positive that a battery was needed until they arrived to do the oil change so had to wait a couple of days until new battery arrived but they came back as soon as it did and finished everything they promised. I very satisfied with the work and would hire them again without hesitation"

"Had a NEMA 14-50 outlet installed, and the entire experience exceeded my expectations. The electrician was punctual, professional, and clearly skilled at craft. The installation was completed quickly, neatly, and fully up to code. Everything functions perfectly, and they took the time to explain the setup and answer any questions I had. If you’re looking for reliable, high-quality electrical work, I highly recommend this service. Five stars well earned!"

"Mike took care of fixing an outdoor outlet while he was assessing the work to be done and also suggested upgrading a light fixture instead of repairing it which will save us money in the long run. Great to work with."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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

You may need a permit for a portable generator if you’ll be installing a transfer switch for your primary residence or similar work. Otherwise, a permit for other uses may not be necessary. Check your local building codes or ask a local generator installer for more information about your local regulations.

In most municipalities, you will need a permit to install a permanent home generator, including emergency backup, partial-home, and whole-home generators. A permit for a generator usually costs between $50 and $250, depending on where you live. Your electrician or certified generator installer will usually pull the permit for you—and might be required to do so by your building department—but you’ll be on the hook for the cost of the permit. You should ask your installer before agreeing to any work if they will pull the necessary permits for your project.

If you’re wondering if you can use your electric vehicle as a backup battery, it depends on whether your EV is compatible with bidirectional charging. This technology allows energy to flow both ways, enabling vehicle-to-home (V2H) backup power, vehicle-to-load (V2L) for appliances and camping, and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) to support the power grid. Compatible EVs convert stored DC energy into usable AC power, helping reduce energy costs and enhance grid stability while providing emergency backup power.

DIY is possible for basic setups. Professional installation ensures safe and proper electrical connections.
