We are a residential and commercial electrical contracting company. We are fully licensed and insured, and we are an accredited member of the better business bureau where we maintain a high rating and take great pride in that. We include warranties and also have 24 hour emergency service available. We take pride in our work, and we have a long list of satisfied, repeat clients. Customer service is our #1 priority.

"On January 12, 2023, Jason came out to check out our generator because it was not working properly. He told us it was the throttle-body that was faulty and needed to be changed. It would be costly and he would send us an estimate via email within the week. About a week later, our generator started working. I called the company because I wanted to speak to Jason, because I wanted to know what was going on. I never received a call, so I called again and left a message, and I never received a call, nor did I receive a quote. I called again, and I never received a call, nor did I receive a quote. My husband called twice to speak to the owner and they will not call us back. It is now March 17, 2023 and we haven’t heard anything. Correction, the only reason we heard from them is because I left a Google review and it wasn’t good, so they got upset and responded by blaming us. Use your discernment before calling this company. The serviceman, Jason, also use the F word frequently during the service call—very unprofessional. The owner, Dale Newman will not stand behind his work, or non-work.."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

DIY is possible for basic setups. Professional installation ensures safe and proper electrical connections.

As long as they have enough fuel, whole-house generators can run for weeks at a time (400 to 500 hours) without suffering too much wear and tear. However, this type of extensive use isn’t ideal if you want to extend the life of your generator.

Two important points. First, some generators may need you to periodically check oil levels every day or so and refill as necessary for safe operation. Second, if your generator uses a fuel tank, keep it regularly full so it doesn’t suddenly shut off. Many backup generators can run through a full tank in a day when they are powering large portions of a home.

You can determine what size generator you need by listing the various appliances it will power during an outage. Write down the start-up watt usage, and then add them all together. 

A 7,500-watt generator will run your refrigerator, freezer, well pump, and lighting circuits without a problem. However, you’ll need an extra 3,000 to 4,500 watts to run your water heater and another 5,000 to 25,000 watts to run your electric furnace. In these instances, a whole-home generator is your best bet for running your critical equipment.

The cost to install a whole-house generator averages at $5,200, but costs can range from $1,500 to $8,900, depending on the type and size of the generator, and the labor required to install it. To find the best deal while still ensuring the unit meets all the needs of your household, hire an electrician to calculate the electrical load of your must-have appliances and electronics beforehand so you don’t pay for more power than you need. As always, be sure to get at least three quotes to find the ideal fit for your needs and budget.

Yes, in some locations, it is required by the National Electric Code (NEC) to have a transfer switch installed for electrical emergencies. In addition to following electrical code, generator transfer switches ensure your home is fully protected during a power outage. By switching the power from the main breaker to the generator breaker, you can seamlessly operate your HVAC, lights, appliances, devices, and more during an emergency.
