"My family experienced water and wind damage earlier this year. We had to be placed in a hotel. After reaching out to numerous companies, we chose Maynor construction. I am glad we did!! If it wasnâ t for Maynor and his staff, I wouldnâ t have made it. The process was long and depressing because of being away from home. However Maynor and his staff reassured me. They showed patience with me and worked hand and hand with my insurance company with getting my home repaired in a timely manner. Thank you Maynor! I truly feel like we are family!"

"Wow......I'm usually one to read reviews before I hire a company. This time I failed to do so and had to pay for it. After speaking with Brenda on the phone about the situation with my generator, we agreed to have one of their techs come out and fix the situation. The previous company already had $600 into this when they finally advised I needed a new board. By what I explained to her on the phone, IPS & S was sure I needed the control board replaced. They were $90 cheaper on the part than my other company, and she said they charge $90/hr for service. I thought, this was a no brainer. I scheduled them to come out ASAP and make the repair. When the bill came, it was $300 more than expected. WHY? Because Brenda, from the office, failed to tell me that they also charge a $1.25/mile trip fee (to and from their west side location), plus the $90/hr is from when they leave the facility to when they get back. Your paying for that too.......just hope they do not run into a traffic jam. When I called to complain about the extra charge that I did not know about, Brenda claimed I must have not heard her when she told me. I did not hear her because she DID NOT tell me. Had I of known that up front, I would have stayed with the company I already had invested $600 with. Brenda said, "but our part is $90 cheaper." True, but when you add in the extra $300 travel fee, they were actually a lot more expensive. Then somehow we got magically disconnected as we were discussing the bill issue. I called back 4 times before someone finally answered and I got back in touch with Brenda. After being on hold for several minutes, they agreed to take $90 off my bill. At this point I had to let them go ahead and finish it since he already had the unit tore apart in my yard.....and putting it back together was going to cost me the $300 anyway, without the repair. UGG! Let me say this......I think the tech guy did a great job. Got the part replaced and installed in less than 30 minutes. If you ever decide to hire this company......get everything quoted in writing. I failed to do that, my fault, and it cost me. Brenda's last comment to me was, "now if we ever come out again to repair something, at least you will know what our charges are." Guess what???? I won't be calling them anyway. I see why they are have 1 star reviews. I would not recommend!!!"

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. 

A whole house generator can be worth the extra money for peace of mind if your home is prone to power outages for extended periods of time or if you have life-saving medical equipment that needs to maintain power at all times. These devices can also increase your home’s value, especially in areas prone to extreme weather and power outages.

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.

When maintained properly, a whole-house generator can last up to 20 years. Costs to maintain and repair generators vary by location and type of generator, but you can expect to pay about $150 to $300 per year for annual generator maintenance checks. An experienced generator service technician will inspect your generator’s engine filter, starting mechanism, fuel, lubrication, and coolant levels to keep your generator in good working condition for as long as possible.

Potential benefits of using a natural gas generator include reducing your carbon footprint, lower likelihood of carbon monoxide exposure, budget-friendly operating costs, and low-maintenance, continuous fuel supply. Some possible drawbacks, though, include higher initial installation costs, dependency on a natural gas supply, and installation complexity. Keep in mind that pros and cons will vary based on the type and brand of natural gas generator.
