We take great pride in our work! The combination of experience, expertise, quality, and customer service create excellent workmanship and complete customer satisfaction from start to completion of a project. In order to understand the needs and expectations of our customers, we take great care to communicate and work with every customer in a professional manner. Our reputation is based on quality, service, and safety regardless of the size of job.

"Honestly the greatest experience ever! Originally we were going to wait on getting the charger because we already have one and this would be a second one that we didn’t absolutely have to have but was more convenient for us. After speaking with Brandon and seeing how his crew worked efficiently to install an electrical panel at another property in my family, the decision to have Wood Line electric put in the EV charger wasn’t no-brainer! I highly recommend them for any project you may be considering. They were fast, efficient, punctual, and great to deal with. The best part is their price was significantly better than their competitors and they still deliver a superior product! I would use them anytime I ever need services in the future!! "

"I highly recommend working with Rob. He's very skilled, detail oriented, incredibly honest, and will discuss any and all details of the project with you if that's what you're looking for. He gives expert advice when needed and does the job efficiently. He's got a broad background of skills, so if you have a job that involves a lot of crossover then I can't recommend him enough. We had to tear out and replace a bunch of drywall and Rob not only did the job but also provided guidance on insulation, electrical, and other topics. Top notch in every respect."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

Whole-house generators need to be installed on level ground several feet away from walls and other objects. Because they tap into the electrical system directly, they usually need to be close to your home electrical panel for a transfer switch installation. It also helps with installation if they are near to a gas line or propane tank installation.

Whole-house generators can last 20 to 40 years with normal operation and proper maintenance. If you look up the specifications for your generator, you may be able to find a lifespan rated in hours of operation. Life expectancy will vary depending on how often and for how long you use the generator each year. Choosing a fuel with low impact like natural gas or diesel can help generators last as long as possible.

Yes, installing a generator usually increases your property value because buyers are getting the added peace of mind knowing they’ll be able to maintain power through blackouts. In most cases, you should see close to a 100% return on investment (ROI). Keep in mind that home generators usually need a permanent foundation, and installing a concrete slab will likely raise your property taxes slightly.

Sizing a generator is a careful process that requires calculating the electrical load of your entire house. You have to take into account every device you want to use and their wattage requirements, plus the wattage needed to start them, and look for a generator that can safely run all that at around 80% capacity.

In more practical terms, a small home can run on a 10,000-watt generator (and if you only want to power a few key appliances, much less than that). A mid-sized home may need something between 15,000 and 22,000 watts. Larger homes require 25,000 watts or more.
