"Excellent father and son team replaced old smoke alarms throughout the house and hard wired them with zero damage to ceilings. They showed me how the alarms will work for good peace of mind. Also fixed wiring to my backyard outdoor lights and got them up and functioning again. Great work on both projects!"

"We could not be more happy with the service we received from Sam. He added electricity to our 12 x 24 foot shed that we had built in our back yard. He ran electrical lines from our breaker box to the back yard. He installed fluorescent lights and outlets inside our shed and an exterior light to meet code. From the time that I initially contacted him for a quote to the follow-up call we received after he was done, everything was done completely professional and to code. We had received a couple quotes from other electricians and none of them mentioned doing work to code. Sam ensured that we had a zoning permit and that was very reassuring because that meant we knew everything was going to be done by the book. The end project was way above my expectations and we got exactly everything that we wanted, plus the county passed our permit."

"Rick and Quinn did great drywall and painting. They showed up when they said and stayed until the job was complete. I was updated each day with photographs as I was away when the work was being done. They were respectful of my specific needs and requests. Itâ s so great to have a dependable person to call when I need work done."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

If your home already has a grinder pump and you’re still noticing issues (like frequently clogged toilets and sinks), it could be time to upgrade your grinder pump. Start by checking your existing horsepower. If there are four or fewer people living in your home, using a 1/2-horsepower grinder pump should be sufficient. Larger households should consider investing in a 1-horsepower grinder pump to maximize wastewater removal efforts.

Natural gas generators are designed to run for extended periods of time, such as power outages during a natural disaster. Since there’s no limit to the supply of natural gas, they don’t need to stop for refills. However, generators do need maintenance, including pauses to check and add oil. Constantly running them will also cause a lot more wear and tear, leading to a shorter lifespan.

Costs range from $500 to $2,500, depending on generator type and installation complexity.

Sizing a generator is a careful process that requires calculating the electrical load of your entire house. You have to take into account every device you want to use and their wattage requirements, plus the wattage needed to start them, and look for a generator that can safely run all that at around 80% capacity.

In more practical terms, a small home can run on a 10,000-watt generator (and if you only want to power a few key appliances, much less than that). A mid-sized home may need something between 15,000 and 22,000 watts. Larger homes require 25,000 watts or more. 

These advanced generators use a key fob or a smartphone app to remotely start, which is ideal for getting power back on immediately without venturing outside. This feature is more common on whole home generators, but you may be able to find it on large portable generators, too.
