"These guys are complete rip-offs!!! I got two other estimates for the replacement of a service cable. They were $500.00 and $700.00. Gen3's price... $4100.00 It took an inordinate amount of phone calls, texts, and emails to get an appointment for an estimate. Then they did not bother to send it to me. I had to call back for the estimate. These guys are the worst, most dishonest operators I have ever seen. They are 8 times more expensive than every one else. THINK ABOUT IT..... 800% more than the competition. Do not call these guys. OBVIOUSLY A DUMB GUY that thinks the public is STUPID. Don't trust them!!!!!! CROOKS"

Star Bright Electric is dedicated to providing our customers with the best quality and craftsmanship. We are here to build relationships with our customers and communities . In addition to providing our employees with a great place to work. We look forward to working with you!

"Star Bright was an email I almost didn’t respond to, and I’m so glad I did. I went to Angi to request some help with installing an EV charger, and Michael ended up being the person who got on the phone with me and was super charismatic. Their service was quick, reasonably priced, and done to perfection. Not only did they help with the EV charger, but we were able to discuss a full house project. They installed recessed lighting in three rooms, three fans, and even fixed some janky faulty electric we had from our home being a flip. Michael, Mark, and Steve were a ton of fun, very informative, and professional. Will be using them again for any future needs!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

If your home already has a grinder pump and you’re still noticing issues (like frequently clogged toilets and sinks), it could be time to upgrade your grinder pump. Start by checking your existing horsepower. If there are four or fewer people living in your home, using a 1/2-horsepower grinder pump should be sufficient. Larger households should consider investing in a 1-horsepower grinder pump to maximize wastewater removal efforts.

Most homeowners won't be able to claim a home generator as a tax write-off. However, a whole-house generator may be tax-deductible in certain situations depending on its purpose. For instance, if it's needed to power essential medical equipment, it may qualify as a medical expense deduction. Also, in some cases, businesses can deduct a generator as a business expense if it supports operations. Always consult a tax professional to determine eligibility based on your specific circumstances and the applicable IRS regulations.

The typical cost of a home generator is around $5,000, but prices range from $400 up to $13,000, depending on a few factors. The most significant cost factor is the generator size, as larger generators that can support more square footage usually cost more. You can install an emergency backup generator for between $500 and $2,000 or a partial-home generator for between $2,000 and $6,500. Whole-home generators usually total between $5,000 and $13,000, with some models climbing as high as $18,000.

In many cases, yes. There are models called dual-fuel generators and fuel switches, but only between certain types of fuel. For example, with the right setup you can convert a generator from natural gas to propane. Some allow switching between diesel and gasoline. There are even tri-fuel generators available in some cases, which adds a large layer of security if you are worried about fuel availability in times of crisis. Always check your generator capabilities and manual instructions before trying to switch fuels. Some generators can use another fuel but may need a fuel conversion kit to prep them first.

As a safety measure, you should always turn off the main breaker while operating your generator’s backup breaker. In addition, you should also switch off all appliance breakers so you don't have a power surge when the main breaker turns back on. And finally, turning off the main breaker prevents back-feeding, which endangers utility workers with the risk of electrocution. Back-feeding could also destroy the electrical circuits of your neighbors if they use the same power network.
