I am a locally owned and operated company that takes great pride my work. I specialize in bathroom remodels but have many years of experience doing electrical and plumbing work as well. I pride myself on the quality of my work and well as my commitment to outstanding results. I look forward to speaking with you about your remodeling needs and building lasting relationships with my clients.

"I hired Todd to reconstruct a medium sized, dilapidated workshop structure on my property to be used as a candle making studio. I had confidence the building could be improved upon but was not exactly sure what to expect. The tin roof was caving in, the building had fire damage, and it was structurally "askew." Todd started with the the side of the structure with the most damage. The results, thus far, are amazing. The side he is working on looks nearly brand new. I am not only impressed with his attention to detail and craftsmanship but also his willingness to articulate his ideas, processes, and techniques. Finally, his time management is outstanding. I have worked with other craftsman in the past and although they might have done great work, showing up on time wasn't always the biggest priority. I highly recommend Todd for any handyman+ job and more! :)"

The modern suburban and small town home of today has become an ideal lightning target. The home owner would do well to recognize lightning for the destructive force that it is and protect against this major life and fire hazard. Donohue's Lightning Rods is based in Missouri, near the factory where most of the residential and commercial lightning rod supplies are manufactured. Jim travels regularly to Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Missouri, Kansas, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, and New York. Call today to find out when Jim will be in your area. For installations outside Missouri, Kansas, or Texas, Jim waits until there are a few customers lined up, thus being able to provide the same quality services at affordable prices. **WE DO NOT DO ELECTRICAL SERVICES.** (ONLY LIGHTNING RODS)

"The job was beautifully and professionally done. I have a zero scape yard and the gentleman was concerned about disturbing the gravel when putting the rod into the ground. WOW!!!!"

Home Performance Group is a mechanical, electrical, and plumbing firm providing service and maintenance for residential Heating and Cooling, Electrical and Plumbing systems, as well as appliance service and general mechanical repair for homes. Our installation team specializes in design, engineering and installation of cutting edge green technologies such as ground-source heat pumps, heated floors, PV solar arrays and much more.

"On 12/24/22, Home Performance Group sent a gentleman to inspect my attic for faulty ductwork since exhaust fans weren't venting correctly. The gentleman stated the issue was significant and would require two laborers. I relied on this representation and agreed to pay roughly $900. Two laborers came to my house on 12/29. They finished the project within 45 minutes. They asked for the remaining balance, which I paid. At the same time, I stated I felt taken advantage of and would contact their office. The office manager confirmed their wage rate is $150/hour/laborer. Thus, labor cost was roughly $300. I asked for materials cost and they refused to provide this amount. Given typical ductwork cost, I imagine materials cost was de minimis. Even with reasonable OH&P, Home Performance Group should have revised their bill by roughly $500 to reflect how quickly they finished the job. They have refused to do so. Without equivocation, I feel they misrepresented the severity of the project and took full advantage of the consumer."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

A 10,000-watt generator can run a small to mid-sized central AC unit (typically up to 3 tons or 36,000 BTU) along with a few other appliances. However, larger AC units or additional loads will require a bigger generator. Consult a local generator installer to ensure you add the correct size generator to your home.

No, this is extremely dangerous, often illegal, and you should never attempt it. If you connect your generator to your home without a transfer switch, the generated power can backfeed, essentially flowing back into the utility lines. Backfeeding exposes a significant threat of fatalities or harm to you and utility personnel, in addition to jeopardizing the structural integrity of your home.

In many cases, you’ll need a permit or basic inspection to install one of these large generators. Since they include significant alterations to your home electrical system and many produce exhaust fumes, local governments often require jumping through a few hoops for general safety purposes. Your installer may be able to help you with these permits.

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.
