"Needed replacement of toilet wax seal. Service tech and assistant were super-nice, professional and clean. Said it would take 2 to 2.5h, but took about 45mins and the charge was $550 + fuel surcharge (if flange was not damaged). I thought this was quite high but based on Webber's ratings I figured it had to be right. Later found out that a experienced plumber would only charge around $200. Too bad, will not use T Webber again."

The modern suburban and small town home of today has become an ideal lightning target. The home owner would do well to recognize lightning for the destructive force that it is and protect against this major life and fire hazard. Donohue's Lightning Rods is based in Missouri, near the factory where most of the residential and commercial lightning rod supplies are manufactured. Jim travels regularly to Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Missouri, Kansas, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, and New York. Call today to find out when Jim will be in your area. For installations outside Missouri, Kansas, or Texas, Jim waits until there are a few customers lined up, thus being able to provide the same quality services at affordable prices. **WE DO NOT DO ELECTRICAL SERVICES.** (ONLY LIGHTNING RODS)

"The job was beautifully and professionally done. I have a zero scape yard and the gentleman was concerned about disturbing the gravel when putting the rod into the ground. WOW!!!!"

Residential, commercial, industrial electrical repair and installation company. All jobs big and small performed by licensed and insured electricians. Installation of ductless mini-split air conditioners and heat pumps.

"Matt was the subcontractor for the electrical part of a complete house rewiring. A lot went wrong with the general contractor but I had enough direct dealing with Matt to know that his and his team's work was incomplete, sloppy, not to code, dishonest, did damage to my house that they didn't accept responsibility for, and in at least one case a fire and safety hazard. Both Matt and the GC presented the project to me as fully done with just a two item punch list. But the actual list of missing items from the contract were: they hadn't pulled a permit, hadn't worked to code, hadn't wired a new dishwasher to code, hadn't used ARC Fault breakers as required by both contract and code, simple things like socket covers weren't installed or were barely screwed in, electrical trash was everywhere, all the lights had been removed but not a single one was reset. They'd left screws all over my hardwood floors and that caused a lot of damage and they'd destroyed a bunch of the lights that they'd taken down. As I've worked with my new electrician to finish, we've found that a lot of the wiring wasn't replaced. And worse, we found one light where Matt's crew had repurposed a ground wire to run live electricity over. That's a safety hazard. I had so many bad direct experiences where they'd tell me one thing and then it would obviously not be true. Matt told me they'd cleaned up their work but then when I checked the specific area he was working on it was littered with trash (he labeled the electrical box with a label maker and left the clippings all over the floor). Or another time when his crew was walking out of the house they told me they'd finished everything but when I walked in three different newly installed smoke alarms were going off. How can you not notice that? Mainly though the big problem was not finishing and not working to code. This whole project was paid for by my insurance and so it obviously puts me in a bad position to feel like we are defrauding them. Either the GC or Matt or both were very obviously overcharging my insurance for work they weren't going to do."

"Installing a PV system is a minefield of regulations and paperwork. Ed and Gerry at TRES have experience navigating this process and were able to take care of all the paperwork. While we had some bumps in the road during the installation, TRES was always willing to do what was necessary to make things right. I'd definitely recommend TRES if you are looking for a PV system."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

These advanced generators use a key fob or a smartphone app to remotely start, which is ideal for getting power back on immediately without venturing outside. This feature is more common on whole home generators, but you may be able to find it on large portable generators, too.

While the rating will tell you how many watts the refrigerator needs at the peak of its cycle, it requires additional wattage to start. At the bare minimum, you’ll need a 1,500-watt generator to get the fridge up and running after a blackout. A 2,000-watt generator should be sufficient for most home refrigerators.

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.

DIY is possible for basic setups. Professional installation ensures safe and proper electrical connections.

If you’re deciding between a solar battery versus a generator for the best backup power solution, you can take a few factors into consideration. Solar batteries are quiet while generators can be quite loud. Generators have a lower up-front cost, but they require fuel and ongoing maintenance while solar batteries are more expensive but don’t have many ongoing costs.
