"They have done things right. Removed the siling fan and installed a light fixture. The price was quite high. I got $56 discount for the angies list, and paid $142, which was ok. But, the original price was $198. They came the same day I called, which was great! But, I don't think I will pay for $200 for a light fixture installation next time."

"Guys showed up on time and quickly diagnosed and fixed problem. While here we discussed she and load on house panel and had them install a whole-house surge protector. I had a post house get toasted by a lightning strike so seemed prudent given electronics in house."

"Highly recommend this company. The owner called me on a Saturday afternoon to discuss my project after I submitted my request about an hour earlier on Angi. A technician, Carter, was onsite on Monday and was professional, courteous, and efficient. He serviced what I needed done, and the price was reasonable."

We want you to know that we are very pleased with the quality of service Undefined Heights Electrical & Data LLC provided. I was impressed from our first appointment. Your estimate was not only the most affordable compared to the other four companies I received estimates from, but it was the most detailed. I really appreciated the time spent on educating me on your solution for our electrical work needed. This made me understand the process and reasons of the work that needed to be done. I felt confident I was making the right decision.

Not only were you the most affordable and offered the best long term solution, but you saved me money by being honest and not adding additional unnecessary costs. You also went above and beyond by adding a few extras that made my life easier. We sincerely appreciate your responsiveness and the way you conduct business. Your team completed this project on schedule. They were extremely professional and diligent during our tedious project. I was also surprised by how hands on you were, and it was a pleasant surprise to have you on site.  

I admire your tenacity, I?m still shocked at the fact that you worked outside during a sever e thunderstorm to get the job done on time.  This was a complicated job, you understood the sense of urgency and you were efficient enough to get it done in a day. Inspection passed with flying colors.

We will be recommending Undefined Heights Electrical & Data LLC to others because of our satisfaction with your service. We look forward to doing business with you for years to come. Undefined Heights Electrical & Data LLC is officially my go to company for any electrical issues I encounter for my primary residence and investment properties.

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

Carbon monoxide emissions aren’t only dangerous to human life, but they also harm our planet. While natural gas generators emit lower levels of CO than other fuel sources, there are still ways to reduce emission levels. For example, shop around for an eco-friendly generator that complies with current emission standards. Also, make sure your generator is serviced regularly to avoid CO buildup. 

Generators are usually sized by running watts and starting watts. Ideally, you’ll want a generator that can offer both the necessary running watts and starting watts for everything you need to power without going beyond 90% of its capacity. Calculate your home’s electrical load based on the breakers in your home or adding up the appliance and lighting needs of connected rooms.

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.

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.
