"I was extremely pleased since the other companies said several other things were wrong with the unit and what Scott said we found to be accurate. He had the unit running in less than 2 minutes and he explained how to get the unit running again if it happened again. I was extremely pleased with him and have referred him to several other friends. He actually approached the problem instead of a proposing big sales pitch."

"Having owned four different houses the past 16 years, this was hands down the best experience with a plumber... ever. We hired WyattWorks to install a laundry sink (the stainless over cabinet kind) which required drilling through the floor to tie-in with supply and drain pipes in our basement. Jeremy performed the work flawlessly and was a true pro: measure and recheck, plan and dry fit, and clean up the work area during and after. The whole process from start to finish was painless!"

Update:

Marc gave me a call shortly after this review was posted and apologized profusely.  He indicated that due to the urgency he sent a subcontractor that has turned out not to be a good guy.  Marc committed to refunding my payment.  Having an issue is one thing, taking responsibility and fixing it is everything.  Thanks Marc.

This is a mixed review.  I was selling a house and had to have a grommet (little plastic insulator) installed in my electrical panel.  Buyer was insistent that the grommet be popped in by a licensed electrician.  I had to get this done and quickly.   Day after the request MI responded drove thru heavy traffic, got there late but got there.  I had the panel open, handed the gent my hardware store grommet grommet, he popped it in and wrote me a note while I closed the panel, took my $125 and was gone. 

All of that was great except that MI did the work three years ago and failed to install the grommet that got me in this jam in the first place.  Hard to feel good about that.

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.

A 1,500 square foot home will likely need a 15kW to 20kW generator. When deciding on whole-house generator size, add up the total wattage of the devices that you’d like to continue running during a power outage. That way, you can ensure you purchase a generator that can power your necessary appliances or medical equipment during an electrical emergency.

A portable generator can supply power to selected appliances and circuits in a home, but it's generally not designed to handle the entire household's electrical needs simultaneously. Portable generators have limited wattage capacity, so they are only designed to power essential devices and electronics temporarily until local power is restored. If your power needs outweigh the capabilities of a portable generator, consider installing a whole-home generator instead.

The average cost to install a home generator is $5,200, but total costs can range from $500 to $18,000 or more. The final price depends on several factors, including the generator's size, type, brand, fuel source, and the cost of labor and assembly. The generator's size is the most significant cost factor, as units that can power larger homes with higher energy demands cost more.

Cost breakdowns by generator type are typically as follows:

  • Portable or Emergency Backup Generators (1kW–7.5kW): $500–$2,000

  • Partial-Home Generators (9kW–20kW): $2,000–$6,500

  • Whole-House Generators (22kW–48kW): $5,000–$18,000

To ensure you get the right size unit for your needs without overpaying, consider hiring an electrician to calculate the electrical load of your essential appliances. It is also recommended to get at least three quotes from qualified installers to find the best fit for your budget.

Energy output depends on turbine size, average wind speed at your site, and system efficiency. A 5 kW turbine in a good wind location can generate 8,000 to 12,000 kilowatt-hours per year, which may cover a large portion of an average home’s needs. Accurate output estimates require a professional wind assessment and a review of your household’s energy usage patterns.
