"Matt was very responsive via telephone.  I called a week or so ahead of time, to time it so I could be home during a day off from work.  I was trying to get the first appointment of the day, but missed it. However, that morning, he called to say he was ahead of schedule, and did I still want him to come as early as possible.  Very helpful.
He quickly installed the new outlet I asked for in my garage, and figured out why an outlet in our family kept shorting out.  Yes, perhaps I could ultimately have done these things myself, but he did them quickly, efficiently, and right the first time.
He also spent some time with me (at my request) to talk about my options for upgrades to my main electrical panel, advising as to cost, disruption, where digging would be required, etc.
I would definitely call him again - and will be doing so shortly.  I have another small project that I'd like to get his skills working on, and that reminded me that I needed to do this review!

"Ted, the lead electrician with Mr. Sparky came out and took a look at our project for replacement exterior lights. He was helpful in making suggestions about the type of new lights to use and gave us a very competitive proposal. Following our acceptance of their proposal, their office called to coordinate an install date. That dayTed came by and installed our new lights and adjusted them perfectly. When we used the lights that evening we were extremely happy with our choice of Ted's firm and his recommendations as well as his workmanship. We are very pleased and intend to hire Mr. Sparky of Salisbury for future electical projects!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Yes, in some locations, it is required by the National Electric Code (NEC) to have a transfer switch installed for electrical emergencies. In addition to following electrical code, generator transfer switches ensure your home is fully protected during a power outage. By switching the power from the main breaker to the generator breaker, you can seamlessly operate your HVAC, lights, appliances, devices, and more during an emergency. 

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.

If you’re wondering whether gas generators produce carbon monoxide, know that natural gas generators do not produce carbon monoxide if they are functioning properly, as natural gas burns cleanly. However, if the generator malfunctions and the gas does not burn completely, there is potential for carbon dioxide to be produced. To prevent malfunctions, it's crucial to perform regular maintenance, including running the generator weekly and scheduling professional inspections every 6 to 12 months. Also, be sure to test your carbon monoxide detectors regularly to ensure they function in the rare case of the generator producing carbon monoxide.

Yes, installing a generator usually increases your property value because buyers are getting the added peace of mind knowing they’ll be able to maintain power through blackouts. In most cases, you should see close to a 100% return on investment (ROI). Keep in mind that home generators usually need a permanent foundation, and installing a concrete slab will likely raise your property taxes slightly.

If you have a transfer switch properly installed, the generator and main electrical power cannot feed the system at the same time. However, you should still shut off the power at your main circuit breaker panel before activating the generator. If you do that, you’ll simply need to shut off the generator and reset your circuit breaker once the local power comes back on.
