"I had a lot of work that needed done. Bohemia electricians listened to what I needed done, made suggestions and provided written quote for each work item. If I needed electrical work done again, I’d hired them in a heartbeat. They were professional, cleaned up the area each time they worked. Coordinated with other contractors - plumbing, drywall, hvac, etc effectively."

"DO NOT EVEN THINK OF USING ANY OTHER COMPANY!! Alpines electricians and installers and management are the kindest, hard-working, most competent people you could ever want. My heat pump died the week before this terrible life endangering heat wave. I am very elderly with several severe physical disabilities and live in a metal manufactured house which heats up better than my oven! Alpines kind management, when informed that the dog and I were on the verge of fainting in the house which was over 105 degrees inside, sent their installation team over the next day, despite their schedule being backed up. Alpines price was competitive and the equipment is highly rated. I am pretty certain Alpine literally saved my life, because I had nowhere else to stay or live and the temp is expected to go to 114 degrees this weekend. The two electricians, the two installers, the supervisors, and the owner were all cheerful, pleasant, and worked no-stop from about 8:30 am to 8 pm to get the new heat pump up and working beautifully with no problems or hitches. I made sandwiches for lunch and they barely stopped working long enough to eat and to rest a little. The temperature inside the house was close to or at 100 degrees, but they kept working. All the Alpine employees were kind people whom I felt very lucky to have in my house. I could write forever, but I could never fully express my gratitude to Alpines wonderful employees,"

"I hired Pierce Creek to wire and install a 240V hot tub disconnect and a home generator transfer switch, and they did an outstanding job. Jacob was fantastic—highly knowledgeable, professional, and extremely reliable. The work was done efficiently and with great attention to detail. I highly recommend them for any residential electrical needs!"

"Both Brandon and Jonathan were excellent to work with. They are true professionals. They've installed a full solar, inverter, and battery backup system for me on two different occasions. They communicate well before, during, and after the project. I would highly recommend them to anybody looking for electrical work. Especially for batteries, solar, and backup power. Also, the second picture is before they were finished. They always leave a very clean and organized job site."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

With proper maintenance, a whole-house generator can last between 20 and 40 years. The specific lifespan depends on how often and for how long the generator is used, and some models may have their life expectancy rated in hours of operation. To maximize its lifespan, expect to spend around $150 to $300 per year for annual maintenance checks from a qualified technician. During these checks, a technician will inspect the engine filter, starting mechanism, fuel, lubrication, and coolant levels. Consulting your installer and choosing a low-impact fuel like natural gas or diesel can also help ensure your generator lasts as long as possible.

If you’re wondering if you can use your electric vehicle as a backup battery, it depends on whether your EV is compatible with bidirectional charging. This technology allows energy to flow both ways, enabling vehicle-to-home (V2H) backup power, vehicle-to-load (V2L) for appliances and camping, and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) to support the power grid. Compatible EVs convert stored DC energy into usable AC power, helping reduce energy costs and enhance grid stability while providing emergency backup power.

While natural gas generators are costly, they’re a great option for standby power due to the reliability of natural gas as a fuel source. Unlike other fuels, natural gas is delivered through underground pipes, making outages extremely rare and less likely to be affected by the elements. As long as the area isn’t prone to earthquakes, they offer an unlimited supply of natural gas that doesn’t degrade over time or require storage in tanks.

Generators are safe to use as long as they are installed and operated correctly according to the manufacturer's recommendations. The most critical safety tips are to never use a portable or fuel-powered generator inside an enclosed space due to the risk of lethal carbon monoxide poisoning; always operate it outdoors where fumes can dissipate away from your home. Additionally, never attempt to connect a generator to your home’s electrical panel yourself—hire a professional to ensure the setup meets safety standards. Finally, avoid overloading the generator by not connecting more appliances than it is rated for, as this can damage your equipment or cause a fire.

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.
