"I called Your Electric Now on a Tuesday and was able to get an appointment for a quote very quickly.  John came to my house to provide a quote.  He was thorough and quick with the quote for the work which was to install a ceiling fan in a two story family room and two light fixtures (dining room and stair landing). Your Electic Now's quote was significantly less than other quotes i had received due to Your Electric Now having the required equipment for the installation.  Providers arrived on time and completed work in a timely manner.  Upon arrival, the two gentlemen moved my furniture out of the way and used drop cloths to ensure my furniture and carpets were protected from any dust or debris.  After the installation, they moved the furniture back, packed up all packaging and garbage and put the debris in my garage.  I was quite pleased with the professionalism of Your Electric Now. 
I would recommend and use Your Electric Now again for any electrical work.

"Jason installed doorbells at 2 doors. There were no functioning doorbells when I purchased this house 5 years ago. Various contractors warned me of the difficulty and expense of hardwired installations, making me put off the project. Wireless doorbells were unreliable. I was encouraged by James, who did my annual electrical maintenance, and scheduled the work for me. Jason did a fantastic job by creative thinking to avoid the difficulties I'd previously been warned about. He did the job quickly, neatly, and very successfully. I am thrilled to have working doorbells for the first time in 5 years!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

These advanced generators use a key fob or a smartphone app to remotely start, which is ideal for getting power back on immediately without venturing outside. This feature is more common on whole home generators, but you may be able to find it on large portable generators, too.

No, you should never plug a generator directly into a wall outlet in your house. This practice is extremely dangerous, often illegal, and can cause "back-feeding," where power from the generator flows back into utility lines, creating a life-threatening hazard for utility workers. It can also damage your home's electrical system, including appliances like pumps and HVAC fans. If the main power is restored while the generator is connected, it can destroy the generator and cause an electrical fire. To safely connect a generator, you must use a professionally installed transfer switch or an interlocking kit, which prevents back-feeding by disconnecting your home from the utility grid before the generator provides power.

Yes, in most municipalities, you will need a permit to install a permanent home generator, including emergency backup, partial-home, and whole-home models. Because these installations involve significant alterations to your home's electrical system and produce exhaust fumes, local governments often require a permit or inspection for safety purposes. A generator permit typically costs between $50 and $250, depending on your location. Your electrician or certified installer can usually handle the permitting process for you, but you will be responsible for the cost. It's a good practice to confirm with your installer that they will pull all necessary permits before work begins.

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.

To determine the right size generator for your house, you should calculate the total wattage of the appliances and devices you want to power during an outage. List all essential items, note their start-up wattages, and add them together.

Here are some typical wattage requirements for common appliances:

  • Refrigerator: 600 watts

  • Large dehumidifier: 700 watts

  • Large window air conditioner: 1,400 watts

  • Water heater: 3,000 to 4,500 watts

  • Electric furnace: 5,000 to 25,000 watts

A 7,500-watt generator might be sufficient for essentials like a refrigerator, freezer, well pump, and lighting circuits. However, for high-demand items like a water heater or furnace, a whole-home generator is a better choice. A portable generator may be enough if you only need to power a few critical items.

While home square footage can offer a rough estimate, it is not always a reliable indicator. For reference, here are some typical generator sizes based on square footage:

  • 1,000 sq ft: 6–9 kW

  • 1,500 sq ft: 7–10 kW

  • 2,000 sq ft: 10–14 kW

  • 2,500 sq ft: 12–16 kW

  • 3,000 sq ft: 16–20 kW+

For the most accurate sizing, consult a professional who can calculate your home's peak and average power consumption and recommend the optimal generator.
