"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!"

"*****DO NOT GO TO THIS BUSINESS****** This business is 100% unethical and immoral!! Brought my Generac pressure was to them for service. I was asked to place a diagnostic fee of 30 dollars. Then told I recover the fee should it be a warranty issue, or I would not receive it back and was receive a quote and a diagnostic result. Unfortunately, I was called and told I have a bill and it was not cover. It was supposedly "fixed" during diagnostics. The cost of the labor was minimal and not an issue. The issue is not the money it is the unethical practice of saying one thing, providing a invoice stating the same, and then not honoring it. When I provided feedback and expressed my concern, however, stated I would pay. I quickly received a phone call back from the husband stating "you've upset my wife and I am going to rip your pressure washer apart and put all the dirt and bad fuel in." Funny thing is the pressure washer came in with no fuel as I already trouble shoot the issue and siphoned the fuel into a jar where the fuel was clean. Well, he followed through and filled my tank with a milky jelly-like substance. Oh and the pressure washer was more than likely stored outside in their junk yard, went in with no rust and came back with a rusty exhaust. STAY AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! Driving to Wilmington for warranty work is worth it! I have provided the audio from the calls and the fuel samples to generac, and have submitted the establishment to the commerce office to be added to the off-limits for the base. LOOK AT THE OTHER REVIEWS ON GOOGLE I AM NOT AN ANNOMMLY!!!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts
Generators are usually sized by running watts and starting watts. Ideally, you’ll want a generator that can offer both the necessary running watts and starting watts for everything you need to power without going beyond 90% of its capacity. Calculate your home’s electrical load based on the breakers in your home or adding up the appliance and lighting needs of connected rooms.
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 is safe to run a generator continuously, but you must follow safety protocols to ensure personal and home safety. Read the manufacturer’s instructions for specific recommendations, but the general recommendation is to turn generators off overnight or when you’re away from the house. Overworked generators can pose a fire hazard and if your generator is not in a well-ventilated area, running it continuously could lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.
Yes. You can connect your home back-up battery to a generator with its designated charger. Be sure that the output of the generator matches the input requirements for the battery for best results.
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.
