"Shaun and his guys worked at my house for over a 6 month time period due to a large leak that caused my 2 bathrooms, kitchen and basement to be ripped out. Throughout the entire process he made sure to show up with his guys and walk both my husband and I through what we wanted done and how they were going to do the work. All of the guys that he had work for him were respectful and cleaned up after themselves. They were always on time and also they were very good with my German Shepard puppy who it was not always to keep in contained areas. Throughout the project we kept adding more things on and the whole team was absolutely amazing and always doubled checked with us for all the changes we would make and make sure it was to our satisfaction. I would highly highly recommend this company to anyone and everyone. If you want someone that will answer the phone and be there when things are rough this is the company for you! I don't know what we would have done without Shauns guidance and help throughout this entire process."

"This was the worst experience i have ever had with a company. They came and damaged my house and kept us without AC for days. They admitted to the extensive damage and went weeks before attempting to repair it. The services were never fully completed and they were paid over 90% of the job. I disputed the last 10% and provided overwhelming evidence of their negligence. And after a year their last ditch effort was to send collections letters. Don't walk, RUN from this company. I will provide pics and my my experience to anyone who is planning on using this company. Used to be family owned and was amazing. Second they sold it went downhill fast."

Gen Ready, Inc., was established in 1979 to service the surrounding area and provide residents with all their standby electric power solutions. Our staff of knowledgeable and dedicated professionals take pride in providing outstanding, personalized service to our customers and our community. All of our techs are factory trained and certified for warranty repair and maintenance. Call us today and become one of our many satisfied customers. You can visit us online at www.getgenready.com

"After getting several quotes, last year we hired GenReady to install a house generator. Ed, the owner of the company impressed us from the start. He was knowledgeable and patiently explained the process as well as answering our questions. We knew right away that GenReady was the company for us. Lindsay kept us up to date as we moved along in the process. Our generator was installed last July. Andrew and his team installed the generator with expertise and efficiency. They took care to leave our house and yard spotless. Lindsay and Andrew were always happy to answer my questions and address me concerns. We’ve needed the generator only once (thank goodness) when our power went out due to a necessary power line repair after a car crashed into a utility pole on our street. When the power went out, our generator turned on within seconds. Our house was up and running for the four hours the line repair took, and if it weren’t for the blink of lights, we never would have known our generator was running. Every other week, our generator self tests for a few minutes giving us peace mind that it will be here for us if and when we need it. Just like the generator, GenReady is a company that runs efficiently and seamlessly. Just today, Lindsay called to tell me someone would be coming tomorrow to change the oil which reminded me that I am long overdue in submitting this well deserved rave review. Thank you to the entire GenReady team (and to Great White Propane) for all you’ve done to help us know we can weather any power outage."

"Fatos and his team did an amazing job designing and installing lighting throughout our garden and front of the house. I found them through Angies, got proposals from three companies, and decided to give the business to Kelvin Landscape Lighting. Could not be happier! It looks phenomenal at night, turns on and off automatically like I wanted, and the price was good... just excellent work. Would 100% hire again. PS: I was very concerned about the trenching for cables and how my lawn would look like after. Fatos and team did such a great job you cant even tell there were cables run across the lawn. Amazing!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

To reduce AC startup power for a whole-house generator, install a soft start kit or hard start capacitor, which lowers the initial surge by gradually ramping up the compressor. Using a smart load manager can also help by staggering startup loads, preventing a system overload and future costly repairs.

Yes. You can connect your home back-up battery to a generator with its designated charger. Be sure that the output of the generator matches the input requirements for the battery for best results.
