"Bobby showed up on time. Gave me a great price for a new box and new circuit breakers . He started we went skiing, when we returned he was finished and the work site was cleaner than when he arrived. I would recommend Bobby to anyone he is a throw back to when people took pride in their work."

"The amount of work that needed to be done to our 1880 house was extensive. Joe listened to our needs and concerns and offered suggestions that improved our plans. His quote was very fair. He is easy to talk to, professional and honest. Caleb and Dylan who did the work were amazing to deal with. They were very knowledgable, worked hard, and were careful and patient dealing with the oddities of an old house. I highly recommend this company and will call on them for all my electrical needs."

"Installed at a seasonal camp with no roof ridge vents. Upstairs is used occasionally for sleeping and is unfinished, being there is no attic. During the day temperatures easily soar well above 100 degrees, making it impossible to cool with a window unit. Greg suggested putting in an exhaust vent fan on a thermostat to blow the heat outside and create ventilation upstairs. The wiring was quick and the installation smooth. And what a difference! The fan works great and you can feel the cool air flow coming up the stairs if the upstairs windows are closed. This was one of those things we should have done years ago. We're very pleased with the results."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Yes, in most municipalities, you will need a permit to install a permanent home generator, including emergency backup, partial-home, and whole-home models. Because these installations involve significant alterations to your home's electrical system and produce exhaust fumes, local governments often require a permit or inspection for safety purposes. A generator permit typically costs between $50 and $250, depending on your location. Your electrician or certified installer can usually handle the permitting process for you, but you will be responsible for the cost. It's a good practice to confirm with your installer that they will pull all necessary permits before work begins.

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.

While natural gas generators are costly, they’re a great option for standby power due to the reliability of natural gas as a fuel source. Unlike other fuels, natural gas is delivered through underground pipes, making outages extremely rare and less likely to be affected by the elements. As long as the area isn’t prone to earthquakes, they offer an unlimited supply of natural gas that doesn’t degrade over time or require storage in tanks.

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.

Yes. You can connect your home back-up battery to a generator with its designated charger. Be sure that the output of the generator matches the input requirements for the battery for best results.
