"From the office folks to the electrician who did the work -- friendly and professional. They quoted the lowest price of three estimates and did the work within a couple of weeks. I purchased my generator elsewhere online... and VMA walked me thru the process of hooking it up, running it, and shutting it down. Very helpful."

"Jason and his team with Cotti-Johnson did an excellent job updating our electrical boxes, installing the washer/dryer hookup, and getting us setup with a generator! Sam, our assigned electrician, even took the time to go through the entire operation of the generator from A-Z. I would definitely recommend them for any electrical work!"

"Scott was great, offered a fair price, was flexible for scheduling, and finished the job quickly and well. We had a Bath fan install + an exterior electrical outlet installed and he was able to get it done within a few hours. The install looks clean and he took care to clean up afterwards too. Great work Scott! Thank you!"

"Jeffrey Masi is a total gentleman and a Pro of the highest quality. He has been punctual, courteous, knowledgeable, and professional. When I first called him he responded immediately and came to inspect the site. He offered me his estimation and I accepted. He found time on a weekend to do the project because I was not available on weekdays. He also called Ashland Town Hall for inspection and paid the fees. Everything went as smoothly as a whistle. I will strongly recommend him for any electrical project and I am sure you will never go to another electrician. In this context, I should mention another electrician, named Matt from LITelectric whom I contacted along with Jeffrey. I am going to cite a passage "as is" of his texting to me. He wrote, "Honestly, my impression of you is that you are a jack *** hence why I never showed up you seem to think you know everything about a tesla charger when you don't know jack shit we will not be installing anything for you sir take your cheap ass somewhere else." This was when I asked him why he did not turn up after he confirmed appointments twice. Later, I read comments about him and found he was exactly what I thought he would be from his foul-mouthed error-prone texting. If and when it is needed, I will present screenshots of his texting. Please stay away from this person, if you do not want to repent later."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

It is safe to run a generator continuously, but you must follow safety protocols to ensure personal and home safety. Read the manufacturer’s instructions for specific recommendations, but the general recommendation is to turn generators off overnight or when you’re away from the house. Overworked generators can pose a fire hazard and if your generator is not in a well-ventilated area, running it continuously could lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.

No, you should never plug a generator directly into a wall outlet in your house. This practice is extremely dangerous, often illegal, and can cause "back-feeding," where power from the generator flows back into utility lines, creating a life-threatening hazard for utility workers. It can also damage your home's electrical system, including appliances like pumps and HVAC fans. If the main power is restored while the generator is connected, it can destroy the generator and cause an electrical fire. To safely connect a generator, you must use a professionally installed transfer switch or an interlocking kit, which prevents back-feeding by disconnecting your home from the utility grid before the generator provides power.

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.
