"Great Service and communications. John was a pleasure to work. He contacted me immediately and they arrived ahead of scheduled time and date I chose. I highly recommend them. JD was the team member that performed the work. JD installed 3 keyless light fixtures and a Transformer for our Ring Door Bell. JD was very nice to work with, very professional and cleaned up the work area."

"Fred was a pro. He talked me through what he was doing and even had me go through a test run to make sure I understood how to use my new generator outlet. Highly recommend!"

"Outstanding. First they installed a quad outlet and a z-wave switch in our new garage - did a great job for low cost. So we hired them again to install a ceiling fan outlet in my home office, which has a 15 foot ceiling. They installed the outlet before I obtained the fan, then came back a second time and installed the fan, and did not charge us extra for having to make a second trip. As a last minute add-on, they also fished an internet cable through the walls from my wife's office where the service comes in, to a wall outlet in my office, so I now have a direct connection in my office. Took care of it on the same day they did the ceiling fan. Also, they took care of all the inspections and permits. Very professional, reliable, prompt, competent, and nice to work with."

"Originally I had them come out to look because my downstairs A/C system was cooling sporadically. The technician was really friendly, polite and informed me that it would be $1500 to replace the variable motor b/c it was completely done. My system is just now at 10 years old. I decided to compare the cost of getting a new unit which I ended up doing. I got different estimates but Andy gave me the best deal for the best unit out of all the estimates. Install went great, the technicians were very polite, professional and my house is cooling again."

"I hired Hayden in Jan, 2025 from Steady Hand Electrical to install a TESLA Wall Connector (Gen 3) for home EV charging and I could not be happier with the service. He arrived on time & was extremely courteous/knowledgeable. He explained me the installation process & answered all my questions about the TESLA charger and electrical requirements. He was clearly experienced with EV charger installations, assessed my electrical panel, ensured it could handle additional load, recommended a 60-amp circuit for optimal charging speed (up to 48 amps, 11.5 kW). The installation was done neatly, with minimal disruption to my home. He routed the wiring cleanly and mounted the TESLA Wall Connector in the perfect spot in my garage. He ensured everything was up to code, including proper grounding and circuit breaker installation. He also tested the charger to confirm it was working properly. From start to finish, the experience was seamless, professional, efficient and would strongly recommend him."

"I had an outstanding experience with Miguel and highly recommend him for any electrical work! He arrived on time, was incredibly warm, courteous, and professional throughout the entire process. Miguel went above and beyond by securing a permit from the county, installing a transfer switch for my new generator, and even arranging for the inspector to come the same day. The installation was completed quickly, accurately, and at a great price. His attention to detail and commitment to customer satisfaction were exceptional. I will definitely hire Miguel again for any future electrical needs. Five stars!"

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.

If you’re deciding between a solar battery versus a generator for the best backup power solution, you can take a few factors into consideration. Solar batteries are quiet while generators can be quite loud. Generators have a lower up-front cost, but they require fuel and ongoing maintenance while solar batteries are more expensive but don’t have many ongoing costs.

The amount of time a standby generator can run continuously is around 3,000 hours on average. However, standby generators can generally run indefinitely as long as they have a continuous fuel supply. Generators hooked up to a home’s natural gas supply are the best option for extended usage, as these won’t rely on a finite fuel supply based on how much you have in storage. Generators running on liquid propane or diesel won’t last as long, as these require fuel storage and regular refueling to stay running.

In most cases, there are no tax credits available for home generators. However, that’s a general statement that applies to federal tax credits, so you might have access to state or local tax incentives. You can check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables & Efficiency (DSIRE) for more information about your area. If you hire a reliable home generator installer, they should also know if there are any state or local perks you can use to reduce your installation costs, including tax breaks and rebates.

A home that is 2,500 square feet will likely need a 20kW to 25kW generator. Consult your local generator installer to confirm the generator size needed to power your home before purchasing a new one. Be sure to consider how much power your necessary devices need to run.
