"Jose was great to work with. He was quick to respond, came by on short notice to have a look and provide a quote for the work (Installation of one new smart thermostat and replace one old thermostat with new thermostat; requiring separation of baseboards due to wattage). Very competitive pricing, showed up on time at each appointment and got the work done quickly. He left the place cleaner than before, and walked me through everything after the installation. Can highly recommend Jose for any electrical work!"

"I used JP McCurdy to install recessed lights in my living room. The ceiling was sloped and very high and Shazeeb and Nico did a great job. They also installed overhead lights in bedrooms and put in a 240-volt outlet for a washer/dryer room. They communicated with me about my preferences throughout the job. Their work was professional and clean. They also patched the holes they made, which some electricians wouldn’t do."

"EV charger installation. Punctual, very approachable, and responsive to texts (which is most important for me). Great workmanship. Eugene gets the job done. There is a slight room for improvement on post-job clearing. Considering it is and will increasing be tougher to hire an electrician to install an EV charger, Eugine is the go-to person for everyone buying EV and installing chargers at home."

"I have called Michael into a few projects. He offers an array of services from wiring a full house to simple fixtures. He recently separated a four family offering all new meters and main panels. When it comes to electrical I don’t think there is anything he can’t do. Without hesitation, I recommend him to all."

"From the initial contact via Angi to the finished installation, this was a very pleasant experience. Ray came by on the same day to check out the specific location and circumstances, and sent the very reasonable estimate the next day. We arranged for installation the following week, and the members of his team did an excellent job. We now have an EV charger that works very well. Highly recommended!"

"Empower Electric did a great job. I had them rewire my Multi Family home in Everett. I also had them rewire my second floor of my home in Wilmington. They also did some outside lights for me as well. Jimmy was very professional and gave me a great price."

Generator Install FAQs, answered by experts

In many cases, yes. There are models called dual-fuel generators and fuel switches, but only between certain types of fuel. For example, with the right setup you can convert a generator from natural gas to propane. Some allow switching between diesel and gasoline. There are even tri-fuel generators available in some cases, which adds a large layer of security if you are worried about fuel availability in times of crisis. Always check your generator capabilities and manual instructions before trying to switch fuels. Some generators can use another fuel but may need a fuel conversion kit to prep them first.

While diesel is relatively stable, it won’t last nearly as long as propane and you may have to replace it if it sits unused for too long. Diesel can sometimes struggle to work efficiently or start engines during especially cold weather, so it’s not the best choice for every climate. Compared to fuels like propane and natural gas, diesel generators tend to be noisier and create more exhaust, which isn’t always ideal for home use.

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.

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.

With proper maintenance, a whole-house generator can last between 20 and 40 years. The specific lifespan depends on how often and for how long the generator is used, and some models may have their life expectancy rated in hours of operation. To maximize its lifespan, expect to spend around $150 to $300 per year for annual maintenance checks from a qualified technician. During these checks, a technician will inspect the engine filter, starting mechanism, fuel, lubrication, and coolant levels. Consulting your installer and choosing a low-impact fuel like natural gas or diesel can also help ensure your generator lasts as long as possible.
