"Installation went well in December and I thought we would be rating them A. The installers were excellent in customer service. However, when we realized the wrong actual lights (Regular filament vs LED) were installed and they all burned out within a week, in addition to some adjustments that needed to be done so the lights worked as dusk to dawn vs motion, follow-up from "headquarters" was delayed. Weather played a part, however I have contacted several times via, text, phone and email to finish the job and replace the lights to LED as they had called and agreed to do.I have not received a call back at all since February.

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Combining generator installation with upgrades like electrical panel replacement, surge protection, or HVAC improvements in Winston Salem can streamline the process and reduce overall disruption. Coordinating these projects allows for fewer permit applications and inspections, saving time. If you’re considering outdoor electrical work or gas line adjustments, bundling them minimizes downtime and ensures your home’s systems work together efficiently for long-term reliability.

Helpful?

Before starting generator installation in Winston Salem, confirm all required permits are secured and inspections are scheduled in advance. Check for local HOA restrictions and ensure your installation site is level, well-drained, and clear of landscaping obstacles. Mark underground utilities and verify proper distances from windows and property lines. Choosing a licensed, insured contractor with local experience helps prevent unexpected setbacks and ensures compliance with NC regulations.

Helpful?

Generator installation in Winston Salem requires regular maintenance, including quarterly inspections and frequent air filter changes due to local pollen. Monthly battery checks and routine pre-storm testing help ensure reliability. Schedule annual professional servicing, oil changes, and transfer switch cleaning. Don’t forget to inspect gas lines and propane tanks yearly to maintain safe, consistent operation and to address any issues before severe weather hits.

Helpful?

In Winston Salem, homeowners often underestimate their home’s power needs, leading to undersized generators that can’t handle AC or major appliances. Skipping required permits or ignoring local setback requirements can cause costly delays. Overlooking drainage around the installation site or failing to notify the utility company about increased demand are also common errors. Not planning for future home upgrades can limit your generator’s effectiveness.

Helpful?

Generator installation projects in Winston Salem typically take 2 to 4 weeks from planning to final inspection. This timeline includes obtaining permits, site preparation, installation, and required inspections. Weather conditions, electrical panel upgrades, or new gas line installations can add extra days. Scheduling during busy storm seasons may extend the process, so planning ahead helps ensure your project stays on track.
