"They were good. They're price were really good for what we wanted to have done. As far as the work, they came in and they had part of our power back on half way through the day and they had the rest of it on before they left that evening. They had to come back out to test the generator after the propane company came and tested out. They came out and did everything."

"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."

He arrived about 15 minutes earlier and went through the house to find out exactly what was needed for the job.  After the two hours I had him remain to complete the work I had to finish one floor of the house.  I also discussed him returning to the house to do other floors.

Dave's began with the completion of wiring on three lights we had in the basement.  The old lighting was pulled and new wires run for outlets.  A few junction boxes that were old and had bad wires were pulled and the wiring that was replaced was pulled out so it didn't confuse us or interfere with the remaining work.

After the switch for the lighting was installed and a plug that had to be taken out removed and replaced Dave's fixed the issues I had with my security light.

Dave and his helper were polite, professional and proficient in getting the work done.  That is why I kept them on the job until the floor was finished.

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Whole-house generators can run continuously for extended periods, even for weeks at a time (around 400 to 500 hours), as long as they have a sufficient fuel supply. However, this type of extensive use will increase wear and tear and can shorten the generator's overall lifespan. During long periods of operation, it's important to check and refill the engine oil as needed, potentially as frequently as daily depending on the model. If your generator uses a fuel tank, ensure it is kept full to prevent unexpected shutdowns.

Energy output depends on turbine size, average wind speed at your site, and system efficiency. A 5 kW turbine in a good wind location can generate 8,000 to 12,000 kilowatt-hours per year, which may cover a large portion of an average home’s needs. Accurate output estimates require a professional wind assessment and a review of your household’s energy usage patterns.

Generators run on a variety of fuel types, ranging from natural gas to solar power. Keep in mind that fuel costs varying by type:

  • Natural gas: $2,000–$21,000 per year 

  • Liquid propane: $2,000–$21,000 per year

  • Diesel: $3,000–$20,000 per year

  • Gasoline: $500–$3,000 per year

  • Solar generator: $2,000–$25,000 per unit

  • Battery backup: $10,000–$25,000 per unit

Yes. You can connect your home back-up battery to a generator with its designated charger. Be sure that the output of the generator matches the input requirements for the battery for best results.

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.
