"Angi advertises that you’ll get an upfront, transparent price before you ever schedule with a pro. That was not my experience here. This company refused to provide even a ballpark estimate for a standard job — a 50-amp generator plug with an interlock — and instead wanted to charge a $69 “dispatch/diagnostic” fee just to show up. That’s not an upfront price, that’s a sales appointment. Very misleading, and not what Angi promises. I will be taking my business elsewhere."

"I gave Prime Time Construction my insurance money and signed a contract ... later to be told that there was nothing signed... I have never dealt with an insurance claim and was not aware of what I was supposed to do, so I trusted this person..after 3 months of waiting and continually contacting the owner, he did not do the work.. his father took over and the work was very unprofessionally done...and still incomplete... When my bedroom floor was being installed and the subcontractor laying it saw it was defective... they were told to come the next day and *nail* the floating floor down... I did not accept this to which I found out that instead of buying the flooring at a recognized store like I was told, it was purchased at another cheap store (Dirt trash material store) and could not be returned... that is when the owner of Prime Time became angry with me and I was blamed for damaging the flooring.. in which I had nothing to do with it.... they needed someone to blame for their mistakes... They tore out my carpet in my living and dining rooms and did not replace it. I had to buy carpet myself and hire someone to put it down... my furniture was put into a POD storage for 3 months...Had to pay someone to put my furniture back into my home.. all the debris that was removed from the damaged bedroom was thrown out of the bedroom window and 4 months later, it is still there ..I was brought papers to sign and a check.. when asked what was I signing, I was told the list of work they did.. I asked *what work* and what was the check for.. in which I was told *that is what you had left over/.. I immediately started showing the *work* that was NOT done .. in which the person got mad, grabbed the papers, started yelling and pushing his way out of the house..and told me that I did not *give them time* to complete the work...4 months seemed time enough... I was not allowed to read the papers they wanted me to sign ..they just wanted my signature... I have photos if interested... I would advise to NOT use this company.. they are not trustworthy and the work was incomplete and it looked like my grandchildren did the work. and found out that he is NOT LICENSED. They still owe me money, the debris is still in my yard and the work is incomplete. He continually called me *a crazy lady* to anyone that I tried to hire to complete my work... I guess if for 3 months all I had to sit in was my computer chair and that I told him I wanted my money back or I would turn him into the State Board, that is when he became extremely angry and started accusing me of being a crazy lady... I just wanted the work that I paid him for, completed... I would NEVER hire this company to do any job.. the proposal that was written up for my insurance company was a fraud. and now, I have unfinished work and no money to pay for it... I feel he took advantage of me... I am 70 yr old..."

The modern suburban and small town home of today has become an ideal lightning target. The home owner would do well to recognize lightning for the destructive force that it is and protect against this major life and fire hazard. Donohue's Lightning Rods is based in Missouri, near the factory where most of the residential and commercial lightning rod supplies are manufactured. Jim travels regularly to Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Missouri, Kansas, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, and New York. Call today to find out when Jim will be in your area. For installations outside Missouri, Kansas, or Texas, Jim waits until there are a few customers lined up, thus being able to provide the same quality services at affordable prices. **WE DO NOT DO ELECTRICAL SERVICES.** (ONLY LIGHTNING RODS)

"The job was beautifully and professionally done. I have a zero scape yard and the gentleman was concerned about disturbing the gravel when putting the rod into the ground. WOW!!!!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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. 

Natural gas and electricity rates vary significantly based on location, and pricing can change over time, too. It’s possible that in locations where natural gas is particularly inexpensive, it will cost less than grid-based electricity will. However, you should also factor in the generator’s initial costs and maintenance needs, as well as its noise level and if it can comfortably power all your home appliances.

If you have a transfer switch properly installed, the generator and main electrical power cannot feed the system at the same time. However, you should still shut off the power at your main circuit breaker panel before activating the generator. If you do that, you’ll simply need to shut off the generator and reset your circuit breaker once the local power comes back on.

Portable generators provide backup power for essential appliances during outages and are easy to relocate.

Sizing a generator is a careful process that requires calculating the electrical load of your entire house. You have to take into account every device you want to use and their wattage requirements, plus the wattage needed to start them, and look for a generator that can safely run all that at around 80% capacity.

In more practical terms, a small home can run on a 10,000-watt generator (and if you only want to power a few key appliances, much less than that). A mid-sized home may need something between 15,000 and 22,000 watts. Larger homes require 25,000 watts or more.
