"Chris was outstanding! I had a simple idea, but it required his expertise to upgrade my electrical panel and install a 30-amp outlet in the garage for my RV. Thanks to his work, I can now easily power my Casita trailer whenever needed. Chris was professional, efficient, and left everything spotless. I highly recommend him!"

Customers say: Quality work

"I think because of the weather(wind), we were lucky to have them available on such short notice. They are a higher quality company which normally means they are on bigger jobs than ours. if you can get them, they show up on time and work quickly and are really reasonable. I feel quite safe about the work they did since electrical is nothing to fool around with. (Ive done my own in the past and always had some second thoughts about it)."

"Hired A Security Solution to install fencing for me. I was so pleased with Erik and the work his guys did that I have now hired them to remodel my 2 bathrooms, install laminate wood floors in my whole house, and build a planter for me. The cost is very reasonable and Dawn their interior decorator has been super helpful with designing the bathrooms all while meeting my needs and wants. Great company! I highly recommend them."

Generator Install FAQs, answered by experts

The cost to install a whole-house generator averages $5,200, with a typical price range of $1,500 to $8,900. However, total costs can vary from $400 for a small portable unit to over $18,000 for a large-capacity system. The most significant cost factor is the generator's size and capacity, but other variables include the brand, fuel type, and labor for assembly and installation.

Generator costs can be broken down by type:

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

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

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

To avoid paying for more power than you need, consider hiring an electrician to calculate the electrical load for your essential appliances. It is also recommended to get at least three quotes to find the best deal for your specific needs and budget.

It might seem counterintuitive, but installing a generator transfer switch will save you money in the long run. While you’ll have to pay between $400 and $2,500 to have the transfer switch installed, you’ll recoup that amount later on when you don’t have to pay for expensive repairs to your appliances, devices, and electrical system that may have burned out, overloaded, or stopped working due to a sudden loss of power or an incorrect hook up of a generator to your home. 

No, you should never plug a generator directly into a wall outlet in your house. This practice is extremely dangerous, often illegal, and can cause "back-feeding," where power from the generator flows back into utility lines, creating a life-threatening hazard for utility workers. It can also damage your home's electrical system, including appliances like pumps and HVAC fans. If the main power is restored while the generator is connected, it can destroy the generator and cause an electrical fire. To safely connect a generator, you must use a professionally installed transfer switch or an interlocking kit, which prevents back-feeding by disconnecting your home from the utility grid before the generator provides power.

As a safety measure, you should always turn off the main breaker while operating your generator’s backup breaker. In addition, you should also switch off all appliance breakers so you don't have a power surge when the main breaker turns back on. And finally, turning off the main breaker prevents back-feeding, which endangers utility workers with the risk of electrocution. Back-feeding could also destroy the electrical circuits of your neighbors if they use the same power network.

You may need a permit for a portable generator if you’ll be installing a transfer switch for your primary residence or similar work. Otherwise, a permit for other uses may not be necessary. Check your local building codes or ask a local generator installer for more information about your local regulations.
