"Office staff was super helpful in getting this generator installed. And, on the day of installation, the technicians never took a break. At the same time, were very accommodating and and answered our questions fully. Great install. I would (and have) recommend Hurricane Homes."

"Dan and his team did a fantastic job. My initial issue ended up being a lot more elaborate than initially anticipated but I was so pleased with their initial work I hired them again to address the larger system issue. I absolutely recommend and will definitely look to hire them again next time I have any electrical problems."

"     The lights accenting the front of our house were 15 years old and only a couple of them were working.  Because the shrubbery in front of the house had grown, the remaining lights weren't tall enough to throw much light at all.  We needed a new solution.  Dave was extremely prompt with contacting me and returning all calls made in an effort to coordinate schedules.  He arrived exactly when he said he would and worked for 6 hours.  I had to be at school the day he came so my husband stayed home.  Because this project was so important to me, I wanted to speak with Dave after he took a look at what we currently had so I called him from school. He explained very clearly what he thought we should do.  Both my husband and I agreed so Dave went to our local Lowe's to buy a different type of light.  He also installed a more efficient power source.  He said he would save our old lights that were still working so that we could run more wiring off what he was going to install if we wanted to use the old lights to light up another area of the yard.  By the time I got home that evening, it was already dark.  When I pulled up to our house, I had to stop the car and just sit there and look!  The lighting was spectacular.  The house never looked so good!  I had to call Dave and tell him what a fabulous job he had done.  There was another surprise.  He had me walk outside and showed me how he had gone ahead and taken our old lights and installed them to light the side of the house and some shrubbery in the front yard!  WOW!!
     I had briefly mentioned that our chandelier in the entry way always flickered when we turned it on and that there was a prong broken off a cord that was sticking in one of our electrical outlets on our deck.  He took the time to fix both of those things also.  
     For the extra 4 hours of work, Dave charged us only the Angie's List deal rate which was $40.00 an hour--what a bargain.  Everything about this job was done professionally and my husband said that Dave is a "really nice guy."  We have already spoken to him about coming back in the spring to work on a project in our backyard.  
     This was my second experience with Angie's List providers.  Both were outstanding.  I will always come to Angie's List first for our future needs.

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

If you’re deciding between a solar battery versus a generator for the best backup power solution, you can take a few factors into consideration. Solar batteries are quiet while generators can be quite loud. Generators have a lower up-front cost, but they require fuel and ongoing maintenance while solar batteries are more expensive but don’t have many ongoing costs.

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.

Here’s what you can run with different wattages and types of generators:

Portable generator:

  • 2,000 watts can handle a large appliance like a freezer or refrigerator, plus a few smaller items like phones or computer chargers. 

  • 4,000 watts will keep two large appliances operating and a few smaller devices.

  • 8,000 watts should power most essential appliances and other devices, including a sump pump, well pump, or your dishwasher.

Partial to whole-house generator:

  • 20,000 watts and above will make it seem like your home’s power is still on.

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.

If you’re wondering if you can use your electric vehicle as a backup battery, it depends on whether your EV is compatible with bidirectional charging. This technology allows energy to flow both ways, enabling vehicle-to-home (V2H) backup power, vehicle-to-load (V2L) for appliances and camping, and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) to support the power grid. Compatible EVs convert stored DC energy into usable AC power, helping reduce energy costs and enhance grid stability while providing emergency backup power.
