We prefer to be a cut above the rest and not give a low ball price to get in your home & then up the price. We will arrive on time, perform an on-site inspection & provide you with a STRAIGHT FORWARD PRICE up front in writing prior to beginning any work. A small dispatch fee is required to pay. We will send a licensed, certified electrician to your home in a van stocked with 1,000's of parts. All of our employees at Electrical Experts are drug tested and background checked for your safety. The technician will come out to your home, give you the "red carpet treatment" and a complementary 10 point home safety inspection. WE HAVE A 100% SATISFACTION GUARANTEE OR YOUR MONEY BACK! We now offer a 10% discount for anyone over 65 or older/ active or retired military personnel

"RJ was excellent! Very helpful and informative about the condition of the wiring, the options for upgrading, and how we can finance the costs. The company was very responsive and professional. In addition, RJ communicated clearly and helped my mother understand the situation and how she could best address it. Eric"

"Unique circumstances but perfect execution even when the requirements kept changing. Chris R. and Zach dealt with, and knew how to handle, each one. Can’t ask for more than that. A church, with a old floodlight on a 16’ ceiling; another elevated floodlight precariously set up between pews; custom temporary adjustments to main panel to find space for two 240v cables for a floor sander; updated outlet; a genius custom dimmer switch for floodlight that saved necessary $; and I still can’t believe how long Chris R. spent bringing back the brass luster of the ceiling flood that had old excess paint all over it. That was so above and beyond. Thank you gentleman. Our church looks forward to working with you again!(and for our home). And all from a reference from our son in Burgy who had a similar experience."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Whole-house generators can last 20 to 40 years with normal operation and proper maintenance. If you look up the specifications for your generator, you may be able to find a lifespan rated in hours of operation. Life expectancy will vary depending on how often and for how long you use the generator each year. Choosing a fuel with low impact like natural gas or diesel can help generators last as long as possible.

While standby generators provide essential backup power, they can fail when you need them most due to lack of maintenance, fuel supply issues, dead batteries, electrical problems, or improper installation. To avoid costly failures, professional installation and regular maintenance are crucial. Licensed technicians ensure safety, uphold warranty requirements, comply with regulations, and provide expert servicing.

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.

It’s usually better to repair your generator if it isn’t working properly, as it will typically be much more affordable and should yield similar results. Generator repairs cost around $300 on average, while installing a new whole-house generator costs around $5,000 on average. The only exception is if you know your generator is reaching the end of its useful life, usually between 30 and 40 years. If you have an older generator, you could face multiple repairs in the coming years, which might mean that a full replacement will be more cost-effective over time.

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.
