"Let Our Family Work for Yours” At Laurelton Electric we specialize in electrical repairs and generator services for residential, industrial and retail customers 24 hours per day 7 days per week. Our dispatch offices service Manhatten, Brooklyn, The Bronx, Queens, Nassau ,Westchester and beyond” since 1935. We are 3rd Generation family owned and operated, Licensed, Bonded, and Insured, and offer FREE estimates. Our work is 100% guaranteed and maintenance contracts are also available.

"Hello - I hired LAURELTON ELECTRIC company (contact Michael Scheffler) based on original work of 1)installing a new meter( with appropriate approval from local Gas/Electric utility company - Con Edison), 2) move existing circuit breaker panel to a new location, and 3) separate circuit breakers from two meters into 3 meters and ensure all electric outlets are working per 3 new meters. The company sent two technicians on two separate days (Chris and Ashgar Ali) to confirm the work prior to start. The original agreement was for $500 deposit that will be held on a Credit Card, and when I pay for the full amount after job completion, then the company would not charge the credit card. As part of first phase of the work, when the contractor moved the existing electric panel to new location, not all circuit breakers are working as expected. He also requested $2,500 payment which was not part of the original agreement. In show of good faith I paid $2,500 with understanding that the contractor will correct the issue plus install the new meter. The contractor has not installed new meter (he needs to work with Con Edison to get permit and complete the work). Now he is requesting additional $3,100 for moving 6 circuit breakers from original panel that was moved to an existing panel .. which was part of the original work request. I am really frustrated with the bait-and-switch tactic and constant follow-up I have to do for this work to be completed. I am hoping Angie's list can intervene and get this work completed per original agreement."

Generator installations FAQs

Installing a whole-house generator costs about $5,000 on average. Prices range from $1,550 to $8,500, depending on size, brand, fuel type, and assembly. The size of your whole-house generator is the most significant cost factor, with large homes with high energy demands costing the most to power. Types of whole-home generators include:

  • Portable generators with 1kW–7.5kW capacity: $500–$2,000

  • Partial generators with 9kW–20kW capacity: $2,000–$6,300

  • Whole-house generators with 22kW–48kW: $5,000–$18,000

When maintained properly, a whole-house generator can last up to 20 years. Costs to maintain and repair generators vary by location and type of generator, but you can expect to pay about $150 to $300 per year for annual generator maintenance checks. An experienced generator service technician will inspect your generator’s engine filter, starting mechanism, fuel, lubrication, and coolant levels to keep your generator in good working condition for as long as possible.

When choosing the right size generator for your needs, consider a few items to help calculate the wattage you’ll need. Start by determining which household items and appliances you want to power, and then add the wattages together. Check out the wattage of these essential appliances:

  • Refrigerator: 600 watts

  • Large dehumidifier: 700 watts

  • Large window air conditioner: 1,400 watts

  • Water heater: 3,000 watts

Running home appliances like these requires a partial or whole-house generator. A portable generator may be enough to power your home if you only plan to keep a refrigerator and freezer running. 

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.

The value of installing a whole-house generator is that your home has guaranteed power, even if the power grid in your area is down. Whether a whole-house generator is worth installing in your home depends on how often you use it, your home’s location, and your lifestyle. For example, installing a whole-house generator is likely worth it if you:

  • Experience frequent or prolonged power outages

  • Work from home

  • Store a lot of cold food

  • Have a sump pump

  • Have a pump for well water

  • Use electronic medical devices

  • Live in a climate requiring heating or cooling
