Electrical Contracting company specializing in Installation of wiring, panel boards, meters base, switching, outlets, lighting, grounding, grounded outlets, gfci, gfi, afci, arc fault, rewire, remodeling, new wiring, new construction wiring, etc...
"Here’s a draft for your review: We recently hired Assurance Factor Electrical while redoing our kitchen. We ran into several unexpected electrical issues that needed to be resolved before we could move forward, leaving us without a functional kitchen. Bill and his team stepped in quickly and addressed everything with incredible efficiency. Their communication was outstanding—Bill explained the work in clear terms and making us feel confident in their process. On top of being skilled professionals, they were friendly, courteous, on time, and genuinely cared about helping us get back on track. Thanks to their quick response and excellent service, our schedule isn’t too far off. If you need reliable and personable electricians, we highly recommend Assurance Factor Electrical!"

"I had Mr. Electric out to my house on June 19 and showed the electrician, Sean, and his apprentice, Jeff, 4 items that I wanted to have looked at and repaired. Those items were: 1) 2 outlet boxes in a shared wall that were not perfectly aligned so had intermittent grounding 2) an outdoor light replaced with another standard outdoor light that I provided 3) some wiring in a switch checked for safety 4) a suspected weak breaker replaced. After showing them all 4 items, Sean repeated them back to me before giving me a verbal estimate of $662, which seemed reasonable for all 4 items. They were not able to complete the items that day and asked to return. I asked if it was okay to have my parents there instead of me when they returned since I work full-time and Sean agreed. I walked my parents through the list so they understood the work to be completed. Sean and Jeff returned on June 24 and spent approximately 30 minutes in my house. Sean and Jeff only completed 2 of the 4 items but I was billed the full $662. When I got home, my dad walked me through the work. They installed the outdoor light to satisfaction and fixed the grounding issue upstairs by running about 6 inches of cable per outlet to another area of the box. They won’t replace the breaker due to the manufacturer no longer being in business and not wanting to use another manufacturer’s breakers, which I understand from a safety perspective. They also did not rewire the switch. According to my dad, all they did was remove the faceplate and verify the ground even though the issue that was expressed to them was weird jumpering inside the box. On the Mr. Electric website, they state that they offer free safety inspections so I should not have been charged for this. My dad also informed me that Sean claimed he knew nothing about the breaker even though I distinctly remember mentioning it and it being on the verbal list when I received my estimate. I never received a formal written estimate to verify that this was a part of it but as a regular customer of their partner business, Mr. Rooter of Cleveland, this was normal procedure to me. My dad also let me know that even though he had offered to turn off the breakers, Sean did all the work without turning any off. This is a safety concern and is against the NFPA Electrical Code (70E, Article 110.3). I did not initially receive an email statement so I called on June 24 at 4:50pm and requested it because I did not understand why I had been charged the full $662 for only partial work. I was informed the email had failed and they would resend it. When I received the bill, there was a charge for Troubleshoot and Minor Repair (which claims a safety inspection is also included) and a second charge for a ceiling bedroom square. I didn’t have them do any ceiling work so I am not certain what this charge is for. The only note is to hang a customer light. I called back at 5:05pm and asked to speak to someone about the bill. I was told that the manager and Sean were not available but that they would be sent a message to call me. I also marked a zero on a survey I received and received a text that I would be contacted. After not receiving any response, I called back on Wednesday, June 26, at 10:27pm due to shift work and left a detailed voicemail and informed them I would be disputing charges. I made sure to leave both my number and my dad’s should I not be available. To date, I still haven’t received any response. My understanding was that my quote was for all 4 items since before receiving it, Sean had repeated them back to me. 2 of the items were not completed and if I had known I would still be charged the full amount regardless, I would have sought out another electrician. They were in my house for 30 minutes and I understand that electricians charge to the nearest hour or per job but $662 for an hour’s work and <$5 of materials seems absolutely ludicrous. I was previously a satisfied customer of the associated Mr.Rooter Plumbing but after this experience, I won’t be using either business."

Installing a whole-house generator costs about $5,000 on average. Prices range from $1,550 to $8,500, depending on size, brand, fuel type, and assembly. The size of your whole-house generator is the most significant cost factor, with large homes with high energy demands costing the most to power. Types of whole-home generators include:
Portable generators with 1kW–7.5kW capacity: $500–$2,000
Partial generators with 9kW–20kW capacity: $2,000–$6,300
Whole-house generators with 22kW–48kW: $5,000–$18,000
When maintained properly, a whole-house generator can last up to 20 years. Costs to maintain and repair generators vary by location and type of generator, but you can expect to pay about $150 to $300 per year for annual generator maintenance checks. An experienced generator service technician will inspect your generator’s engine filter, starting mechanism, fuel, lubrication, and coolant levels to keep your generator in good working condition for as long as possible.
When choosing the right size generator for your needs, consider a few items to help calculate the wattage you’ll need. Start by determining which household items and appliances you want to power, and then add the wattages together. Check out the wattage of these essential appliances:
Refrigerator: 600 watts
Large dehumidifier: 700 watts
Large window air conditioner: 1,400 watts
Water heater: 3,000 watts
Running home appliances like these requires a partial or whole-house generator. A portable generator may be enough to power your home if you only plan to keep a refrigerator and freezer running.
Here’s what you can run with different wattages and types of generators:
Portable generator:
2,000 watts can handle a large appliance like a freezer or refrigerator, plus a few smaller items like phones or computer chargers.
4,000 watts will keep two large appliances operating and a few smaller devices.
8,000 watts should power most essential appliances and other devices, including a sump pump, well pump, or your dishwasher.
Partial to whole-house generator:
20,000 watts and above will make it seem like your home’s power is still on.
The value of installing a whole-house generator is that your home has guaranteed power, even if the power grid in your area is down. Whether a whole-house generator is worth installing in your home depends on how often you use it, your home’s location, and your lifestyle. For example, installing a whole-house generator is likely worth it if you:
Experience frequent or prolonged power outages
Work from home
Store a lot of cold food
Have a sump pump
Have a pump for well water
Use electronic medical devices
Live in a climate requiring heating or cooling
