From a young age I always loved Electric. My father was my idol and owned his own Electric business. I rode around with him in the truck doing service calls and installations until I turned of age to officially work for the company. At 16 I started doing prefabrication for all the large projects. Once I turned 18 I was an official apprentice. Putting in numerous hours I became a foreman and was offered a position in Colorado building multi Million dollar houses. I came back to Ohio and opened my own company. With over 15 years of experience, not only do I provide Top Notch work, but I provide a professional long lasting relationship for years to come.
"Shane and his team did a great job! Job was quoted fairly and competitively, and the team that did the work was prompt, kind and careful, and completed everything satisfactorily. They will be back this year!"

15 employees. No subs. Charges service call with hourly rate. Accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover credit cards. Additional contact - Jennie Duval, Carl Waibel Jr. or Carl Waibel III. Check out our website at http://www.waibelelectric.com
"Waibel installed three electrical outlets in each of my three bedrooms and two additional outlets in the dining room. The workmanship was good and the price was very reasonable. As a bonus, they also let me know where I had old-fashioned knob-and-tube wiring in the exterior walls so I could avoid those areas when I have the house insulated."

Mosby Electric is a full service electrical company that meets all of your residential electrical needs. In addition, no job is too small. We "get you wired right."
"I had several companies come out to look at my whole house fan that has stopped working. They either refused to touch it or gave an estimate that was prohibitively expensive. Mosby not only found the motor and replaced it at a reasonable price (which included some machining), but also secured the boards around the attic access and reported an issue with a roof rafter. Very timely, professional, thorough, and reasonable. Would definitely hire again."

"Terry was fantastic to work with. He was even willing to come out on a Sunday, working around our busy schedules. He installed a mantle mount mm540 above my fireplace to mount my Samsung 60 tv. It is perfect with all cables concealed. I had others quote me around the same price (some higher), but tell me they would leave a large hole in my wall I would need to repair. Terry said absolutely not...that is not professional. He truly was the epitome of a professional, he was meticulous in his install and made sure everything was cleaned up before he left. He was very friendly. Definitely one of the better experiences we have had with any contract work we have had done in our home. I am so glad we found Tery and his business Techelp4you. Would definitely recommend to others and will be hiring him for future work on our next home."

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
