"The technician spent most of the time talking on his phone so the job took longer than necessary. Refused to give me an estimate before starting work. Then tried to charge much more than the company manager had promised before finally accepting what I had expected to pay. He didn't replace the small wires or box but did perform a difficult installation very well."

"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."

"The Rep was very experienced. Although we had only made the initial appointment to have a generator installed as a backup for the house, we ended up discussing a few minor electrical issues to add to the quote. When he came to complete the work, it was quick and as quoted. He installed a sticker with instructions and left the area cleaner than when he arrived."

"E-A1 Pros did an excellent job with the installation of my pendent lights. They were professional when reaching out and provided confirmation of appointment. The technician was on time and very experienced. He ensured that I was happy with the lights while he was in the process so that he could adjust as needed. He even offered to take out the boxes, but I told it was not needed. I would definitely use them again for future projects!"

"William Burden is the third generation owner of WBLightningRods and his company has been in business since 1950. He is very courteous, professional, was on time, and has a very good crew. William was present for the entire installation. We chose the copper system. We are glad for the peace of mind a lightning rod system will provide."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

A 10,000-watt generator can run a small to mid-sized central AC unit (typically up to 3 tons or 36,000 BTU) along with a few other appliances. However, larger AC units or additional loads will require a bigger generator. Consult a local generator installer to ensure you add the correct size generator to your home.

In most municipalities, you will need a permit to install a permanent home generator, including emergency backup, partial-home, and whole-home generators. A permit for a generator usually costs between $50 and $250, depending on where you live. Your electrician or certified generator installer will usually pull the permit for you—and might be required to do so by your building department—but you’ll be on the hook for the cost of the permit. You should ask your installer before agreeing to any work if they will pull the necessary permits for your project.

No, you should never plug a generator directly into a wall outlet in your house. This practice is extremely dangerous, often illegal, and can cause "back-feeding," where power from the generator flows back into utility lines, creating a life-threatening hazard for utility workers. It can also damage your home's electrical system, including appliances like pumps and HVAC fans. If the main power is restored while the generator is connected, it can destroy the generator and cause an electrical fire. To safely connect a generator, you must use a professionally installed transfer switch or an interlocking kit, which prevents back-feeding by disconnecting your home from the utility grid before the generator provides power.

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.

Whole-house generators need to be installed on level ground several feet away from walls and other objects. Because they tap into the electrical system directly, they usually need to be close to your home electrical panel for a transfer switch installation. It also helps with installation if they are near to a gas line or propane tank installation.
