"Jason recently installed a Generac generator for our home. As a licensed electrician, Jason showed great knowledge of residential electrical issues and is very knowledgeable of the Generac product. He took the time to answer any and all of our questions. The installation work was done very neatly and with great care and attention to detail. We found Jason to be honest and focused on customer satisfaction. We consulted with several generator installers before choosing Goldstar. We highly recommend Goldstar for generator installation as well as any residential electrical issues."

"Getting a whole house generator is a huge investment so I shopped around and got 4 quotes because of the wide range of cost estimates. Other people said the cost "would be around" an amount, and Brandon gave me a detailed exact price. Had people tell me different things about where I could put the generator. Brandon came out and explained everything and said I could put the generator where I wanted it. His crews (electrical, gas) were professional, appeared to know exactly what they were doing, worked efficiently, and left the job site very clean. Brandon provided everything I wanted--he has a long track record of installing generators, has been in business for many years, offered a 10 yr warranty, offers an annual check-up plan, and made sure I was happy with everything."

"Great install/product (so far—brand new unit): However, before Blizzard Jan 2025 heard Optimize electrical panel door rattling/“clanking” when I was outside wrapping pipes before blizzard—asked Optimize to check panel door to ensure it’s flush/secure so snow & ice cannot penetrate their electrical box since NEW. Optimize came to check & said there is nothing they can do with loose/rattling panel door, “not to worry”, that no moisture can get to wiring….?? Door is so loose, you barely press the door & it sinks in/a LOT of play. Tech said they have to “allow some air to get inside box”?? Optimize CHARGED me $150.00 to check loose electrical panel door & did not tighten door.. (DEMCO’s generator panel door, installed by Optimize’s electrical panel, is tight/no banging….??). There would be no banging if Optimize panel door was not loose! Once Generator is installed, you have to pay $150.00 for Optimize to come out to check anything you are concerned about with new Unit, post install."

"They call back the same day and was able to set up an appointment the very next day. They came out and did a complete diagnostic of my generac home standby generator and narrowed it down to two (2) parts. I was a little bit unsatisfied that they wasn’t able to narrow it down to the exact part . But overall I was happy with the service and the professionalism and would recommend them."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

In Covington, you’ll find several types of electrical contractors: residential specialists for home wiring and remodels, commercial experts for business properties, and contractors focused on generators, smart home upgrades, solar systems, or pool and spa wiring. Emergency electricians are crucial after storms. Choose a contractor familiar with Covington’s climate challenges and always verify they meet LA’s licensing and insurance requirements for your safety.

Helpful?

For electrical work in Covington, keep a non-contact voltage tester, insulated screwdrivers, and a moisture meter to monitor humidity’s impact on wiring. Stock weatherproof electrical boxes, GFCI outlets, and surge protectors to guard against storms. Have silicone sealant and corrosion-resistant wire nuts for outdoor projects. Backup lighting and spare batteries are helpful during outages, and a dehumidifier can protect sensitive electrical components in damp areas.

Helpful?

Before starting electrical projects in Covington, review your home’s electrical panel and make sure it can handle added load, especially during hurricane season. Secure necessary permits for upgrades or new installations. Prepare a detailed project plan, and schedule inspections early to account for local humidity and weather delays. Always call 811 before any digging, and coordinate with your utility provider for service changes or generator installations.

Helpful?

In Covington, main panels, outdoor outlets, and attic or crawl space wiring often need attention due to frequent storms and high humidity. Kitchens and bathrooms may require regular GFCI outlet checks, while older homes might need upgrades to ceiling fan wiring or smoke detector circuits. Flood-prone basements benefit from sump pump wiring inspections, and outdoor kitchens or irrigation systems should have weather-resistant upgrades.

Helpful?

In Covington, you can safely replace light switches, outlets, or test GFCI outlets if you turn off power at the breaker and use insulated tools. Always work in dry conditions to avoid moisture risks. For issues with outdoor wiring, generator hookups, or older aluminum wiring, stop and call a local professional. Never attempt repairs during storms or if you notice burning smells or flickering lights.
