"This company wasted several weeks of our time without providing a sufficient apology or explanation. They initially scheduled service while asking in a voicemail if I wanted to base the estimate on the detailed specs in my email or if I preferred to have the owner walk through. I followed up within 2 business days to confirm the date at the end of July and mentioned either option would be okay with me, but I wanted to confirm whether my specification was sufficient with the owner as I felt there were some non standard parts involved. I patiently waited and followed up from time to time. This is the full timeline: June 30 at 4:18 p.m.: I called. The owner (Evan) picked up and mentioned the company was finishing up for the day and just taking emergency calls then, while adding that his secretary would follow up with me the following week. I mentioned that I sent an email the same day with a full breakdown of the work. July 6, 1:48 p.m.: The secretary left a voicemail to confirm a July 26 appointment with an arrival time of 8:15 a.m. and sent an email to confirm the scheduled date and time. In the voice mail, I was asked to follow up to see if I wanted an in-person estimate or if an estimate based on my email specs was sufficient. July 10, 11:41 a.m. I called to follow up, but received an automated message indicating the number has calling restrictions that prevented completion of my call. I followed up via email (below). July 11, 2:47 p.m.: I sent a text message to a 978 area code number, which seemed to be the number that the main number forwards to, to confirm receipt of my email while mentioning the automated message issue. July 12, 10:22 a.m. I called to follow up as I did not receive a response to the email. I wanted to make sure they knew I confirmed the date and time, and I wanted to discuss the estimate options. I immediately received a text message back from the 978 area code operated by the secretary, adding that she was on another call. I did not receive a call back that day. July 14, 9:23 p.m. I followed up via text message, asking when would be a good moment to catch up regarding the upcoming work. I received a call back from the secretary at 9:30 a.m. I summarized my July 6 email. The secretary indicated she would get back to me that day after discussing the project with Evan. I did not hear back. ** July 18, 9:54 p.m.: followed up again over email for when the team arrived the following day while providing the above breakdown so they understood my frustration from a customer perspective. July 19, 7:55 p.m.: I received an email from the owner indicating he cancelled the appointment while being sorry that our communication has not met your expectations, which I felt was interesting as the lack of communication would be frustrating to any customer, and his response incorrectly suggested that it was just my expectations at issue. Frankly, when a company commits to a job, they should always follow up. I emailed the owner back right after and asked for clarification, but I never received one. I should note that this electrician has worked for me before. I was overall happy with the service, with some caveats. On a job at my new residence, they installed new outlets as some existing outlets installed by someone else prior had safety concerns. During the install, I noticed that some new outlets were not as eye-level as they were before (this was not an issue with the available leeway around the outlet, as there was some). I asked one of his installers nicely if some could be moved a bit to be eye level, and the owner (Evan) overheard this and announced that this was a safety visit and not a cosmetic one. This did not make sense to me."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

As long as your generator is used as recommended by the manufacturer, it’s safe to use for auxiliary power. Make sure that fuel powered generators are used outdoors and that the fumes dissipate away from your home. A professional generator installer will ensure your generator’s placement and set-up meets safety standards when installing or repairing your back-up power source.

Generally, you’ll want to keep between 60 and 70 feet between the generator and the transfer switch. There are a few reasons for this, including:

  • The distance reduces the noise coming from the generator into your home.

  • It increases efficiency because you won’t have a voltage drop from this short of a distance.

  • Prevents carbon monoxide poisoning: keep at least 15 feet between your generator and an open window. 

Here’s what you can run with different wattages and types of generators:

Portable generator:

  • 2,000 watts can handle a large appliance like a freezer or refrigerator, plus a few smaller items like phones or computer chargers. 

  • 4,000 watts will keep two large appliances operating and a few smaller devices.

  • 8,000 watts should power most essential appliances and other devices, including a sump pump, well pump, or your dishwasher.

Partial to whole-house generator:

  • 20,000 watts and above will make it seem like your home’s power is still on.

As long as they have enough fuel, whole-house generators can run for weeks at a time (400 to 500 hours) without suffering too much wear and tear. However, this type of extensive use isn’t ideal if you want to extend the life of your generator.

Two important points. First, some generators may need you to periodically check oil levels every day or so and refill as necessary for safe operation. Second, if your generator uses a fuel tank, keep it regularly full so it doesn’t suddenly shut off. Many backup generators can run through a full tank in a day when they are powering large portions of a home.

No, you cannot plug a generator directly into a wall outlet in your home. Plugging in a generator without an interlocking kit, extension cord, or wall outlet receptacle is incredibly dangerous and can cause back-feeding—power from the generator back-feeds into utility lines. Also, if the main power comes back on while your generator is on, it could damage the generator and cause a house fire.
