"I would recommend Shield Electric for any residential/commercial jobs. You can not ask for an electrician with more integrity. Kaleb is willing to talk to you about the work; he will also answer questions about various options. Kaleb is knowledgeable and will do whatever is necessary to complete the job. He doesn't make excuses. He doesn't ever say, "I didn't factor that in..." when an onsite change occurs. He just gets the job done, and with integrity. Call him now!"

"I hired Shock & Awe Electric to do some electrical work at my home in Ocean Isle Beach, NC. They responded quickly to my Home Advisor App request and came out to give me a quote on my project the very next day. They installed a fan light on my dock, along with adding an on off switch; they installed on my house two ring flood lights and three motion sensor flood lights which required them to move existing electrical fixtures and relocate them and lastly they re-wired a outdoor shower light and added an on/off switch. They scheduled the work when it was convenient for me, showed up on time and did excellent work. The price of the project was very fair and they cleaned up well behind themselves. I will use them again and recommend them highly. Shawn and Rick are very professional and personable guys ."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Generators are safe to use as long as they are installed and operated correctly according to the manufacturer's recommendations. The most critical safety tips are to never use a portable or fuel-powered generator inside an enclosed space due to the risk of lethal carbon monoxide poisoning; always operate it outdoors where fumes can dissipate away from your home. Additionally, never attempt to connect a generator to your home’s electrical panel yourself—hire a professional to ensure the setup meets safety standards. Finally, avoid overloading the generator by not connecting more appliances than it is rated for, as this can damage your equipment or cause a fire.

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

Setting up utilities on a vacant property usually takes at least a few months, or between 6 weeks to 16 weeks. This process requires working with the local planning and zoning department, hiring a building contractor or engineer to design the utility layout, securing permits, laying the lines, and connecting the utilities.

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.

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.
