"I have owned this home for 31 years. I have never come across someone who provided excellent service like Uriel. I was extremely surprise with the quick response. The electrician was patient, professional, and flexible with my schedule. Listened to my request and did exactly what I wanted and needed done. Great price. Definitely will keep his number for further jobs. Thank you very satisfied and happy customer. My tenant was also very happy."

"Arjun is absolutely outstanding! He installed my electric charging station, upgraded my electrical panel, and added automated light switches — all of which were done beautifully. What really impressed me was how thoughtful and precise his work was; everything was installed cleanly and neatly, in fact, the finished areas looked cleaner than they did before he started. Arjun is not only incredibly knowledgeable and skilled, but also smart, thoughtful, and genuinely nice to work with. He’s gone above and beyond for us on follow-up visits and smaller projects, always making the time to help. Highly, highly recommended — if you’re looking for someone who takes real pride in their work and delivers at the highest standard, Arjun is the person you want."

"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."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

An undersized whole-house generator has the potential to overheat and shut down when you try to run a central AC system. This scenario can not only damage the whole-house generator, but can also trip your home’s breakers or cause electrical damage. To avoid this situation, hire a local generator installer to correctly size your whole-house generator.

In most municipalities, you will need a permit to install a permanent home generator, including emergency backup, partial-home, and whole-home generators. A permit for a generator usually costs between $50 and $250, depending on where you live. Your electrician or certified generator installer will usually pull the permit for you—and might be required to do so by your building department—but you’ll be on the hook for the cost of the permit. You should ask your installer before agreeing to any work if they will pull the necessary permits for your project.

Homeowners can often access federal tax credits, such as the Investment Tax Credit (ITC), which covers a percentage of installation costs. Many states and utilities offer additional rebates, grants, or performance-based incentives. These programs can significantly lower your upfront investment. Check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables and Efficiency (DSIRE) or contact your local energy office for current offers.

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.
