"All the folks at Stonehouse Electric Company are fantastic and do a phenomenal job at what they do! Electricians Meghan and Michael arrived promptly the other day and expeditiously completed several installations and associated rewiring for numerous outdoor lighting projects. Not only were they professional and knowledgeable, Mike and Meghan were friendly, communicative, and conversant in a range of subjects! I enjoyed having them at the house and would definitely hire them again for future projects. I highly recommend Stonehouse Electric Company for their outstanding service, fair and competitive pricing, and their commitment to quality!"

"Zack was very good at installing a ceiling fan in our bedroom and fixing the light and fan switch in the other bedroom. He went and bought us a new fan at Lowe's and brought it back and installed it. He was personable and very easy to work with. I would highly recommend his work."

"They did a great job. They stopped by and gave me a breakdown of my electrical use and estimates on different options for a generator. They also found the perfect spot to put it. The day of installation, they showed up on time and put in a full day installing the generator. It works great and looks great. Now I don't have to worry about outages, especially in the winter."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

Portable generators provide backup power for essential appliances during outages and are easy to relocate.

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

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.

No, you should never plug a generator directly into a wall outlet in your house. This practice is extremely dangerous, often illegal, and can cause "back-feeding," where power from the generator flows back into utility lines, creating a life-threatening hazard for utility workers. It can also damage your home's electrical system, including appliances like pumps and HVAC fans. If the main power is restored while the generator is connected, it can destroy the generator and cause an electrical fire. To safely connect a generator, you must use a professionally installed transfer switch or an interlocking kit, which prevents back-feeding by disconnecting your home from the utility grid before the generator provides power.
