"Artie and Greg came to our house multiple times for wiring related to a kitchen renovation. They wired our new kitchen island for an outlet and microwave. They also installed new high-hats and pendants in the kitchen. They were professional, competent, and efficient. They did great work and I would highly recommend them."

"Fabio was skilled and installed the new outlet for my dryer quickly. He informed me so I could understand what he was doing. He cleaned up before he left. He is on my speed dial for electrical work."

"I had a great experience with Albert. He was extremely professional and easy to communicate with throughout the entire job. He clearly explained what needed to be done, kept me informed, and made sure everything was completed properly. He installed several outlets and fixtures in my home. He was careful, clean, and respectful of my space, leaving everything neat when the job was finished. I highly recommend Albert and this company for anyone looking for reliable, professional electrical work."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

A 10,000-watt generator can run a small to mid-sized central AC unit (typically up to 3 tons or 36,000 BTU) along with a few other appliances. However, larger AC units or additional loads will require a bigger generator. Consult a local generator installer to ensure you add the correct size generator to your home.

While diesel is relatively stable, it won’t last nearly as long as propane and you may have to replace it if it sits unused for too long. Diesel can sometimes struggle to work efficiently or start engines during especially cold weather, so it’s not the best choice for every climate. Compared to fuels like propane and natural gas, diesel generators tend to be noisier and create more exhaust, which isn’t always ideal for home use.

A home that is 2,500 square feet will likely need a 20kW to 25kW generator. Consult your local generator installer to confirm the generator size needed to power your home before purchasing a new one. Be sure to consider how much power your necessary devices need to run.

A portable generator can supply power to selected appliances and circuits in a home, but it's generally not designed to handle the entire household's electrical needs simultaneously. Portable generators have limited wattage capacity, so they are only designed to power essential devices and electronics temporarily until local power is restored. If your power needs outweigh the capabilities of a portable generator, consider installing a whole-home generator instead.

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.
