"Matt, installed a backup generator on a pad made of rocks and 4 x 6 pressure treated wood that looks amazing!!! Tons of wiring and digging, in other words he sold me the total solution! He also installed a lightning rod and surge breaker inside my breaker box. While he was in there I had him replace all my breakers (circa 2001). All the bedroom breakers were upgraded to Arc Fault breakers. One could not be reset so he had to trouble shoot all the outlets until he found the one where neutral and ground were touching! Only Arc Fault breakers and Matt can detect this problem. You need to read up on the technology. I had him replace all the wired in smoke alarms original to the house (2001) and add an addition one next to the furnace. Matt understands all the electrical codes. My house will be 2017 federal electrical code when Pennsylvania just adopted 2014 codes. Most counties don't even require you to be an electrician to do electrical work. My wife and I sleep easy knowing that all our electrical work is done correctly and to 2017 Federal code. Matt is honest, easy to talk to, smart and very hard working and I trust him!!!! He explained everything he was doing since I watched him most of the time. I just moved here July 31, 2019 and have more work for Matt to do. I strongly recommend him! If I could give him 10 stars I would! James P. Nemeth, MGySgt USMC Retired"

Small jobs welcome

"C.J. was very professional, very skilled and did an excellent job installing two heavy chandeliers - one to replace an old one and one to be moved to center over the kitchen table. I was amazed at how he went about his job; he was very precise and very careful to get the job done right and to our satisfaction. I was also very impressed with this young man who not only did a great job but did it all my himself, prepped the site and cleaned it after the work was done. I would recommend him for any electrical job. Theresa A."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

It might seem counterintuitive, but installing a generator transfer switch will save you money in the long run. While you’ll have to pay between $400 and $2,500 to have the transfer switch installed, you’ll recoup that amount later on when you don’t have to pay for expensive repairs to your appliances, devices, and electrical system that may have burned out, overloaded, or stopped working due to a sudden loss of power or an incorrect hook up of a generator to your home

Generators are usually sized by running watts and starting watts. Ideally, you’ll want a generator that can offer both the necessary running watts and starting watts for everything you need to power without going beyond 90% of its capacity. Calculate your home’s electrical load based on the breakers in your home or adding up the appliance and lighting needs of connected rooms.

The average cost to install a home generator is $5,200, but total costs can range from $500 to $18,000 or more. The final price depends on several factors, including the generator's size, type, brand, fuel source, and the cost of labor and assembly. The generator's size is the most significant cost factor, as units that can power larger homes with higher energy demands cost more.

Cost breakdowns by generator type are typically as follows:

  • Portable or Emergency Backup Generators (1kW–7.5kW): $500–$2,000

  • Partial-Home Generators (9kW–20kW): $2,000–$6,500

  • Whole-House Generators (22kW–48kW): $5,000–$18,000

To ensure you get the right size unit for your needs without overpaying, consider hiring an electrician to calculate the electrical load of your essential appliances. It is also recommended to get at least three quotes from qualified installers to find the best fit for your budget.

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.
