"Fast and super helpful. Gave me a proposal right away. Started work same week. If deviations were needed, was specific on what and why. Reasonable and fair pricing, and honest about their capabilities and areas of expertise. Professional team and went out the way to provide additional references for other concerns. I also appreciated the video Fabio took to show me the before and after, especially in areas I was unable to see."

"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."

Customers say: Quality work

"Artique Constructions did an amazing job with my bathroom and kitchen remodeling. Can not recommend enough for their quality of work and commitment to deliver to perfection. I chose very modern high end designs and their work was impeccable. I would have spent more than double if I had gone for anyone else. I got complete remodeling of kitchen(floor/cabinets/island/pantry/installation of all kitchen appliances/backsplash/open shelves/led ceiling lights) bathroom(bathtub/vanity/floor/bath tiles/built-in shelves/toilet), changed all switches and electric boxes, trims throughout the house, paint, door knobs, hinges, custom wall paneling. Garry made the house look like a million bucks houses featured in magazine. He is very trustworthy and patient. His attention to detail is amazing. Would suggest anyone who wants to get their house in amazing shape with no hidden costs Garry is the person to go to."

"Mr Haney was a blessing in its truest sense. He arrived on time at 2pm as he said he would. That was important to me because of my tight schedule. He replaced my worn outdated electrical outlets in my living room. Mr Haney noticed the newly purchased air conditioner still partially in the packaging on the floor of my living room. I told him that I was waiting on someone to get back to me about installation. He must have seen the perspiration bubbles on my forehead. It was 102°F outside but it felt like 150°F inside, these old brick homes really traps the heat in the house. Mr Haney offered to do the installation. The rest is history. I, along with everyone else in my household appreciates him for keeping us cool under these extreme temperatures. He's neat and efficient. I should also mention his strength. The air conditioner is about 100 pounds he' picked it up as if it was a rag doll. I knew that I made the right decision after we spoke over the phone, he was polite & mild manner"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

Whole-house generators need to be installed on level ground several feet away from walls and other objects. Because they tap into the electrical system directly, they usually need to be close to your home electrical panel for a transfer switch installation. It also helps with installation if they are near to a gas line or propane tank installation.

If you have a transfer switch properly installed, the generator and main electrical power cannot feed the system at the same time. However, you should still shut off the power at your main circuit breaker panel before activating the generator. If you do that, you’ll simply need to shut off the generator and reset your circuit breaker once the local power comes back on.

In some situations, yes. Never try to put biofuel into any home generator without checking the specifics first. If a generator has the ability to run on diesel, it can also run pure biofuel (the clear kind made from seed oils, for example). But if you are using biofuel made from animal fats or vegetable oils, the generator will need significant modifications before it can handle a sludgier type of biofuel.

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.
