"I had Nathan quote a job for cabin under 600 sq ft. It was gutted to the studs inside with all new framing and completely open for them to work. He quoted 4,700 for the complete job, rough in and finish trim, simple cabin nothing special outlets lights and water heater etc nothing fancy at all. He went there to rough it in (600 sq feet cabin) they billed 48 hours to rough it in totaling $5,772 for just 1/2 the job. I remodel cabins for a living and this is 1 day job for 2 guys (have done 15 or so to date). They were apparently there for 48 hours. AFTER they did the work they billed me for just 1/2 the job for $5,772.00. I immediately called and asked what was going on and he said sorry that’s what it is and it will be another $2,615 to come finish it once the interior was done. So he quoted $4700 and tried to charge me $8,387.00. I had multiple quotes ranging from 4500-5700 from multiple electricians so his quote was accurate he just decided to try and take advantage of me and charge double AFTER the work was complete. He didn’t mention anything to me before about it costing more. STAY AWAY FROM THESE CROOKS! I know having to get a lawyer involved to get this matter settled. Complete Crooks! I have all the documents and emails to prove it."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

If you’re wondering if you can use your electric vehicle as a backup battery, it depends on whether your EV is compatible with bidirectional charging. This technology allows energy to flow both ways, enabling vehicle-to-home (V2H) backup power, vehicle-to-load (V2L) for appliances and camping, and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) to support the power grid. Compatible EVs convert stored DC energy into usable AC power, helping reduce energy costs and enhance grid stability while providing emergency backup power.

No, you cannot plug a generator directly into a wall outlet in your home. Plugging in a generator without an interlocking kit, extension cord, or wall outlet receptacle is incredibly dangerous and can cause back-feeding—power from the generator back-feeds into utility lines. Also, if the main power comes back on while your generator is on, it could damage the generator and cause a house fire.

An undersized whole-house generator has the potential to overheat and shut down when you try to run a central AC system. This scenario can not only damage the whole-house generator, but can also trip your home’s breakers or cause electrical damage. To avoid this situation, hire a local generator installer to correctly size your whole-house generator.

Yes, installing a generator usually increases your property value because buyers are getting the added peace of mind knowing they’ll be able to maintain power through blackouts. In most cases, you should see close to a 100% return on investment (ROI). Keep in mind that home generators usually need a permanent foundation, and installing a concrete slab will likely raise your property taxes slightly.

Homeowners can often access federal tax credits, such as the Investment Tax Credit (ITC), which covers a percentage of installation costs. Many states and utilities offer additional rebates, grants, or performance-based incentives. These programs can significantly lower your upfront investment. Check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables and Efficiency (DSIRE) or contact your local energy office for current offers.
