"John Gambino was recommended to me on Facebook a year or so ago when I needed an emergency electrician on a holiday. He sent someone out within the hour and the issue was resolved quickly. A few months ago, I again needed some work done and decided to also upgrade to 200 AMP at the same time. John sent out a few guys, including Bill Heaton and Jimmy. The work was done to our 100% satisfaction and Bill carefully explained everything that had been done and why. We recently bought an older home that had knob and tube wiring so we called John once again and he sent Bill out to give us an estimate. I will be honest, we now trust John and Bill so much based on our prior experiences that we didn't even bother to get a second estimate. We knew that the peace of mind that we would have knowing that the job would be done correctly, on time, and by people that we like and trust was worth far more than trying to save a few dollars. Thank you so much John, Bill, and Jimmy. Chuck and I appreciate the work you did so much. Everything looks great and we can't wait to move in at the end of the month! If we ever need electrical work done in the future, you will be the ones we call."

"Carlos is a PRO. Came out installed a new 200 amp electrical panel, conduit protected 200 amp line in, full bonding and grounding system, as well as ran a line and installed a generator interlock kit. He was thorough in showing me how to operate everything, the craftsmanship of his work was next level, everything up and running in a timely manner, and the cost was great. 10/10 would recommend for any and all electrical needs."

"Mr. Rowland installed a light post as well as a century floodlight on the side of my house. He also installed LED energy efficient lights in my basement. The installs were all clean and well done. Not to mention the price was very reasonable. Without a doubt, I would absolutely hire or recommend him for future work."

"The quality of work was poor, some of switches do not work, some of the electric outlet did not work. I contacted the service provider but never heard back from them. The service provider did the bare minimum to complete the job. The quality of the hardware installed is as bad as it can be. It would have been nice if he gave us a few options, showed us what he was going to install but he did not. We got what he chose for us.

He is very professional, explained all options how to get wires from main electric panel to the other side of the house where it would be convenient for us to charge the car. Provided all required materials and get job done fast and safely, made sure everything works properly."

Generator Install FAQs, answered by experts

In some situations, yes. Never try to put biofuel into any home generator without checking the specifics first. If a generator has the ability to run on diesel, it can also run pure biofuel (the clear kind made from seed oils, for example). But if you are using biofuel made from animal fats or vegetable oils, the generator will need significant modifications before it can handle a sludgier type of biofuel.

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.

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.

Costs range from $500 to $2,500, depending on generator type and installation complexity.

Natural gas and electricity rates vary significantly based on location, and pricing can change over time, too. It’s possible that in locations where natural gas is particularly inexpensive, it will cost less than grid-based electricity will. However, you should also factor in the generator’s initial costs and maintenance needs, as well as its noise level and if it can comfortably power all your home appliances.
