"I am very pleased with the service I received from Mr. Electric of Gastonia. Daniel and Matt explained all the issues with the old panel and I decided to have it replaced along with a whole house serge protector. While they were here they kept me informed of what they were doing and how the job was progressing and when they were done they cleaned up. Daniel and Matt were always on time and they called ahead when they were on their way. Brian set up my appointment times and scheduled me for the electrical inspection so I didn't have to do any of that. The inspector was here this morning and told me that it was really nice to see good quality electrical work. I would not hesitate to refer them to family and friends, I am happy with the job they did for me."

"Drew Darien with Walker Electrical went way beyond my expectations. He started remodeling two bathrooms changing out boxed fluorescence lighting and completely opened up our bathroom with LED recessed lighting. Drew added under cabinet lighting to our vanity and through our shower. Scones and pendants were added as well. His work was so precise that he went on to remodel our kitchen. As my lead on this project, Drew worked extremely well with other contractors. Drew was timely throughout every step of the project, hard working, on time and budget, and highly creative in his design. I wholeheartedly recommend Walker Electrical for any project."

"LJ did a great job upgrading my panel. The price as fair and he his work was very clean. I really felt like he knew exactly what he was doing and explained it to me clearly. Our panel has been installed for a while now and we have not had a single issue. I would definitely hire him again and have already recommended him to all my neighbors."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

If you’re wondering if you can use your electric vehicle as a backup battery, it depends on whether your EV is compatible with bidirectional charging. This technology allows energy to flow both ways, enabling vehicle-to-home (V2H) backup power, vehicle-to-load (V2L) for appliances and camping, and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) to support the power grid. Compatible EVs convert stored DC energy into usable AC power, helping reduce energy costs and enhance grid stability while providing emergency backup power.

Natural gas and electricity rates vary significantly based on location, and pricing can change over time, too. It’s possible that in locations where natural gas is particularly inexpensive, it will cost less than grid-based electricity will. However, you should also factor in the generator’s initial costs and maintenance needs, as well as its noise level and if it can comfortably power all your home appliances.

It might seem counterintuitive, but installing a generator transfer switch will save you money in the long run. While you’ll have to pay between $400 and $2,500 to have the transfer switch installed, you’ll recoup that amount later on when you don’t have to pay for expensive repairs to your appliances, devices, and electrical system that may have burned out, overloaded, or stopped working due to a sudden loss of power or an incorrect hook up of a generator to your home

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.

In some situations, yes. Never try to put biofuel into any home generator without checking the specifics first. If a generator has the ability to run on diesel, it can also run pure biofuel (the clear kind made from seed oils, for example). But if you are using biofuel made from animal fats or vegetable oils, the generator will need significant modifications before it can handle a sludgier type of biofuel.
