"Cole was very professional, installed a kitchen ceiling fan, a bathroom fixture, high hats in the living room, and installed 2 outlets and moved my plate for my landline. He cleaned up and there was nothing for me to do after he left except admire his work."

"John is a very professional electrician and is very knowledgeable about what he does. Him and his crew have many years of experience doing this kind of work and it really shows. I just had them install a new car charger for me and I couldn’t be any happier with the results!"

"I used Call Me Electric because they were highly reviewed on angie's list, and after using them their reviews are right on. they are amazing at what they do, and very prompt and professional. i had a light post installed outside, a light fixture installed at my front door and back door, electrical outlets repaired outside, light fixture installed in my office, and had my basement lights replaced with led lights. All the work was done just the way we wanted it. I want to think Ralph, John, Andrew, and Nick for being very professional and doing a great job. i highly recommend them for all your electric work and i will be using them in the future. thanks again."

"They were extremely honest, courteous, need and fair. We had them install all of the electric for my pool equipment, lights etc. and run electric to the dock for boat power. They were so good, we had them come back and re run all the electrical in the downstairs of our house including new outlets, lights etc. we also had them upgrade our panel to a 200 amp. I can not say enough about how clean and easy they were to work withâ ¦.I would recommend them 100%!"

"I am very happy that I hired Patience HVAC to replace my hot water heater. I have an oil burner and oil hot water heater. The 18 year old heater was making crackling noises and I was advised by the oil company to replace it. I wanted to convert to a gas hot water heater and tried going through Lowes. However, they only do swap outs if the existing heater is already set up for gas. So I contacted several companies for a quote. Out of all of them, Anthony was the most professional, down to earth and reasonably priced. First, he suggested to explore correcting the issue on the old heater and save me money which was impressive. I decided to proceed with a new gas heater. The quote he gave me was $800 less than the next lowest quote. Anthony sent his workers Caesar and Matt the next day which I greatly appreciated. They were both very polite and wore covers on their shoes so to avoid dirtying my house more than necessary. Anthony came later in the day to ensure everything was done correctly. He then offered to call him with any questions even if they were not pertinent to the work they performed. I am extremely impressed with patience HVAC honesty, professionalism and reasonable prices. I will be sure to recommend them to friends and family. When I am ready to install a ductless air conditioner, I will definitely contact Patience HVAC."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Natural gas and electricity rates vary significantly based on location, and pricing can change over time, too. It’s possible that in locations where natural gas is particularly inexpensive, it will cost less than grid-based electricity will. However, you should also factor in the generator’s initial costs and maintenance needs, as well as its noise level and if it can comfortably power all your home appliances.

Natural gas generators are designed to run for extended periods of time, such as power outages during a natural disaster. Since there’s no limit to the supply of natural gas, they don’t need to stop for refills. However, generators do need maintenance, including pauses to check and add oil. Constantly running them will also cause a lot more wear and tear, leading to a shorter lifespan.

Potential benefits of using a natural gas generator include reducing your carbon footprint, lower likelihood of carbon monoxide exposure, budget-friendly operating costs, and low-maintenance, continuous fuel supply. Some possible drawbacks, though, include higher initial installation costs, dependency on a natural gas supply, and installation complexity. Keep in mind that pros and cons will vary based on the type and brand of natural gas generator. 

It’s usually better to repair your generator if it isn’t working properly, as it will typically be much more affordable and should yield similar results. Generator repairs cost around $300 on average, while installing a new whole-house generator costs around $5,000 on average. The only exception is if you know your generator is reaching the end of its useful life, usually between 30 and 40 years. If you have an older generator, you could face multiple repairs in the coming years, which might mean that a full replacement will be more cost-effective over time.

Generators run on a variety of fuel types, ranging from natural gas to solar power. Keep in mind that fuel costs varying by type:

  • Natural gas: $2,000–$21,000 per year 

  • Liquid propane: $2,000–$21,000 per year

  • Diesel: $3,000–$20,000 per year

  • Gasoline: $500–$3,000 per year

  • Solar generator: $2,000–$25,000 per unit

  • Battery backup: $10,000–$25,000 per unit
