Customers say: Quick response

"bought new path lights for our home. tried to install myself. Out of 8 lights only two came on. in addition, couldn't remove old lights from wires due to horrible clips from old lights. In about 20 minutes after the job started half of my lights were working. he wired them the way i asked so i didn't have to worry if one failed...i could replace without those darn clips. Just looking outside and finally seeing them work made me so very happy. the lights came on tonight at dusk. I could hardly wait to see them. I've been outside 3x since dark. I just cannot believe how great they look. he even replaced light bulbs and checked my eye on my lamp post. all is very very well here thanks to midnight sun. amazing and fast job. definitely a favorite contractor."

"My wife says Iâ m â particularâ â ¦. ð Iâ m not sure Iâ m particular, I just expect contractors to do exactly as agreed and to do a good job just as they would want! Farm Creek Electric did exactly that on our electrical job north of Cameron, MO! We had a line ran 200â and two RV boxes installed with 50, 30, and 20 amp plugs installed. Dean communicated well, knew exactly what I wanted after telling him one time, completed the job quickly, and honestly exceeded my expectations!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Generators are safe to use as long as they are installed and operated correctly according to the manufacturer's recommendations. The most critical safety tips are to never use a portable or fuel-powered generator inside an enclosed space due to the risk of lethal carbon monoxide poisoning; always operate it outdoors where fumes can dissipate away from your home. Additionally, never attempt to connect a generator to your home’s electrical panel yourself—hire a professional to ensure the setup meets safety standards. Finally, avoid overloading the generator by not connecting more appliances than it is rated for, as this can damage your equipment or cause a fire.

You may need a permit for a portable generator if you’ll be installing a transfer switch for your primary residence or similar work. Otherwise, a permit for other uses may not be necessary. Check your local building codes or ask a local generator installer for more information about your local regulations.

To determine the right size generator for your house, you should calculate the total wattage of the appliances and devices you want to power during an outage. List all essential items, note their start-up wattages, and add them together.

Here are some typical wattage requirements for common appliances:

  • Refrigerator: 600 watts

  • Large dehumidifier: 700 watts

  • Large window air conditioner: 1,400 watts

  • Water heater: 3,000 to 4,500 watts

  • Electric furnace: 5,000 to 25,000 watts

A 7,500-watt generator might be sufficient for essentials like a refrigerator, freezer, well pump, and lighting circuits. However, for high-demand items like a water heater or furnace, a whole-home generator is a better choice. A portable generator may be enough if you only need to power a few critical items.

While home square footage can offer a rough estimate, it is not always a reliable indicator. For reference, here are some typical generator sizes based on square footage:

  • 1,000 sq ft: 6–9 kW

  • 1,500 sq ft: 7–10 kW

  • 2,000 sq ft: 10–14 kW

  • 2,500 sq ft: 12–16 kW

  • 3,000 sq ft: 16–20 kW+

For the most accurate sizing, consult a professional who can calculate your home's peak and average power consumption and recommend the optimal generator.

Costs depend on generator type, labor, and additional wiring or transfer switch requirements.

Setting up utilities on a vacant property usually takes at least a few months, or between 6 weeks to 16 weeks. This process requires working with the local planning and zoning department, hiring a building contractor or engineer to design the utility layout, securing permits, laying the lines, and connecting the utilities.
