"Lemus Electrical was very responsive when we had a three-day outage. A technician came the same day I called, and came back one day later with 3 others to install a new electrical panel - which had been ruined by a transformer blowout. They were very professional, did very good work, and were cheerful about it all. I will definitely call them again, the next time we need electrical work!"

"Kevin Williams was sent to repair problems created by another electrician hired by Kitchen Saver during an expansive kitchen re-face and cabinet installation. Among other things, he re-located an unsightly transformer that had been previously secured to the inside of the first shelf of a main kitchen cabinet to a lower cabinet out of sight. Voila! Then, he re-routed unsightly wiring previously clamped to the far corner of a glass display cabinet so that it was out of sight. These were difficult puzzles to solve, as the new cabinets had already been installed and there was no longer easy access. Kevin was friendly, professional, and experienced! Great job!"

"The contractor sent to my house was NOT a licensed electrician. I was told a free quote was 39.99, that turned to 59.99 when I got the estimate and it was waaaaaay over priced and then wanted me to pay a fee to get a warranty for their work! I would have expected a warranty on his work should have been given to me! I needed the job done right away, he was pleasant and courteous but never again with this company."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

In Bethesda, generator installation typically spans three to five weeks. The initial phase—site evaluation, permitting, and equipment ordering—often takes two to four weeks. Actual installation of the standby generator and transfer switch usually requires one to three days, depending on your home’s electrical system. Final inspections and utility connections may add several days, especially during busy seasons or if weather delays occur.

Helpful?

Be wary of Bethesda contractors who provide vague quotes, skip site visits, or avoid discussing local permit requirements. Watch for missing details about generator placement, transfer switch installation, or gas line assessments. If a pro lacks insurance, references from MD homeowners, or pushes for full payment upfront, proceed with caution. Poor communication or reluctance to explain their process can signal inexperience with backup power projects.

Helpful?

Bethesda’s weather can impact generator installation timelines and planning. Spring and summer are ideal for outdoor electrical work, but demand for backup power rises during storm season. Fall brings increased rain and potential hurricane effects, which may delay projects. Winter’s cold and frozen ground can complicate trenching for gas lines. High humidity and heavy rainfall require careful site drainage and ventilation planning for reliable standby generator performance.

Helpful?

When hiring for generator installation in Bethesda, prioritize pros with proven experience handling backup power systems in local neighborhoods. Ensure they’re familiar with MD’s specific noise and setback regulations, and can manage all required permits. Look for contractors who offer ongoing maintenance for standby generators, have strong local references, and carry proper insurance. Confirm they understand Bethesda’s unique lot sizes and older home electrical systems for a seamless installation.

Helpful?

Homeowners in Bethesda should consider local noise and setback ordinances, HOA guidelines, and any historic district restrictions. Small or sloped lots may limit generator placement options, while older homes might need electrical upgrades for safe backup power integration. Confirm if natural gas service is available or if propane is required. Schedule underground utility marking and plan ahead, as peak installation times can book quickly in MD.
