"Completed updating of bathroom and kitchen. Carlos is thoughtful and does great work. Was willing to work with us as we did part of the work. Both updates look 100% better and I would definitely hire Carlos again!"

"Sebastian was top rate. On time, diagnosed issue, checked outlets & breakers. He had the right parts in the truck and was able to install new breakers (replacing the prone to fail AFI/GFI combo). Refrigerator is safe and the dishwasher/disposal is working again. Very happy with the great service and the on-the-job explanations that he had to help me be an educated customer. I will definitely use Sebastian on my coming up home improvement projects."

"Josh did a great job with the stairs! He was very timely in being able to get us a quote and order materials. Communicated very well throughout the process and able to get things done efficiently. After installing the deck he stained the staircase and it matched the original deck very well. He cleaned up after himself and all went great! Thanks! Will consider him again in the future when we need something done"

Customers say: True professional

"Sean did a good job and worked efficiently. He was able to do all the tasks we requested. I'm satisfied with his work. He did our job on a Saturday and I was very happy he went out of his way to work us into the schedule. I would hire him again, no question. The only disappointment was that he didn't clean up afterward as well as I thought would be done. For example, where metal siding had to be cut to install new fixtures, there were still pieces of the sharp metal lying around (larger than an inch square)."

"I was introduced to Sacry through a third party. But I have now found an electrician for life! They showed up with little notice, analyzed the scope of what to be done, and made some recommendations. These recommendations were not so they could charge more, but rather so the job could be completed safely, and look professional. Sacry Electric went out of there way to make sure I was satisfied. I wish more companies had the same values as Sacry, putting the customers wants, needs, AND budget as their only priorities! Thanks again Sacry! I will be calling again soon!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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

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.

As a safety measure, you should always turn off the main breaker while operating your generator’s backup breaker. In addition, you should also switch off all appliance breakers so you don't have a power surge when the main breaker turns back on. And finally, turning off the main breaker prevents back-feeding, which endangers utility workers with the risk of electrocution. Back-feeding could also destroy the electrical circuits of your neighbors if they use the same power network.

Generators run on a variety of fuel types, ranging from natural gas to solar power. Keep in mind that fuel costs varying by type:

  • Natural gas: $2,000–$21,000 per year 

  • Liquid propane: $2,000–$21,000 per year

  • Diesel: $3,000–$20,000 per year

  • Gasoline: $500–$3,000 per year

  • Solar generator: $2,000–$25,000 per unit

  • Battery backup: $10,000–$25,000 per unit

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.
