"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!"

Mr. Electric® is a global franchise organization providing electrical installation and repair services. Recognized by Entrepreneur magazine among its ?Franchise 500,? Mr. Electric franchisees provide these services to both residential and commercial customers at almost 200 locations worldwide. Mr. Electric is a subsidiary of the Neighborly® family of service franchises.

"I originally called Mr. Electric regarding a generator issue I was having. They stated it was likely because I had the connection set up at 30 amps instead of 50 amps. I subsequently asked them to come out and switch my set up from 30 to 50 amps. The technician came and installed one new 4 pole 50 amp breaker, about 6 feet of 6/4 wire, and a 50 amp inlet box. Total for materials when I looked them up online was less than $200. They charged me $884 total. That means they charged me $684 just for labor and the technician was only here for about half an hour. I looked up up the average hourly rate for electricians in my state and it averages about $70/hrs. Even if they charged me for a full hour of labor that means they charge almost 10X the normal rate. I don't know why they scammed be or if this is their normal MO but being a senior citizen this is a hit. AVOID THIS COMPANY!!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

The cost to install a whole-house generator averages at $5,200, but costs can range from $1,500 to $8,900, depending on the type and size of the generator, and the labor required to install it. To find the best deal while still ensuring the unit meets all the needs of your household, hire an electrician to calculate the electrical load of your must-have appliances and electronics beforehand so you don’t pay for more power than you need. As always, be sure to get at least three quotes to find the ideal fit for your needs and budget.

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.

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.

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.

A whole house generator can be worth the extra money for peace of mind if your home is prone to power outages for extended periods of time or if you have life-saving medical equipment that needs to maintain power at all times. These devices can also increase your home’s value, especially in areas prone to extreme weather and power outages.
