"CLARENCE AND HIS TEAM WERE AMAZING. WORK WAS COMPLETED IN A TIMELY MANNER. Knowledgeable, very helpful, ON TIME and always courteous, and most importantly work completed on schedule. We had an emergency roof leak that led to internal water damage. Within an hour of speaking with Clarence and his crew was on site, fixing the problem. In 3 days the work was completed which included resealing an extensive roof, installation of sheetrock, drywall and paint. A special note of appreciation for Clarence who was the project lead - always smiling, set realistic deadlines, achieved them with quality workmanship. I would like to thank Clarence for giving us the right advice and running an honest business. I would not hesitate to work with this company again and would highly recommend them. We wish you and your crew all the success."

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.

An undersized whole-house generator has the potential to overheat and shut down when you try to run a central AC system. This scenario can not only damage the whole-house generator, but can also trip your home’s breakers or cause electrical damage. To avoid this situation, hire a local generator installer to correctly size your whole-house generator.

To reduce AC startup power for a whole-house generator, install a soft start kit or hard start capacitor, which lowers the initial surge by gradually ramping up the compressor. Using a smart load manager can also help by staggering startup loads, preventing a system overload and future costly repairs.

Generators are usually sized by running watts and starting watts. Ideally, you’ll want a generator that can offer both the necessary running watts and starting watts for everything you need to power without going beyond 90% of its capacity. Calculate your home’s electrical load based on the breakers in your home or adding up the appliance and lighting needs of connected rooms.

Setting up utilities on a vacant property usually takes at least a few months, or between 6 weeks to 16 weeks. This process requires working with the local planning and zoning department, hiring a building contractor or engineer to design the utility layout, securing permits, laying the lines, and connecting the utilities.
