"Very well. These guys, Gil, Luis, Jake and Nick, did a great job with our 2 day installation, they were professional, friendly, answered questions easily, protected the indoor environment (drop cloth, ppe etc), and reassembled and thoroughly cleaned everything afterward. Look forward to contracting with them again for any other large job."

Customers say: True professional

"Mike Ferriera had installed two bathroom fan/light units for us in October 2013. We were pleased with his efficient and professional, though friendly manner, so we called him again this summer to prepare our two-door two-car garage for installation of garage door openers. 
He was on time for the appointment and got right to work. Seemed like a straightforward task at first but there was some strategy involved in wiring to meet code, which he worked out and implemented efficiently after consulting with us regarding options.
With the outlets installed, we were able to have the doors installed with no glitches.
I would recommend Ferriera Electric for any electrical job - simple or complicated, large or small.

"I can’t recommend Botelho and Sons Electric highly enough. From start to finish, the experience was outstanding. They were punctual, neat, and completely reliable, showing up exactly when they said they would and keeping the work area clean and organized throughout the entire project. I had a 200-amp panel upgrade, lines run to a pool & hot tub, copper wire installed for the pool and the connection for our generator - everything was done to code, with obvious skill and attention to detail. Out of 6 electricians I got quotes from, Ryan offered the best price without cutting any corners. On top of that, both he and his employee were incredibly knowledgeable and professional. Bonus points for being amazing with my 130 lb Cane Corso, who is usually suspicious of strangers. It was clear they were comfortable around dogs and respectful of my space, which made the whole process that much smoother. If you want high-quality work from someone you can trust, I wouldn’t look any further!"

"Went out of their way to accommodate my work schedule, did not charge me when they were unable to repair the problem. Returned and installed the new fan, no fuss, no mess."

"As one of the requested lines involved a plenum in the garage that was plastered over only 1 of 2 network lines were installed. Instead of the flat rate 1/2 rate we got time and materials saving about 300."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Costs range from $500 to $2,500, depending on generator type and installation complexity.

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.

A 1,500 square foot home will likely need a 15kW to 20kW generator. When deciding on whole-house generator size, add up the total wattage of the devices that you’d like to continue running during a power outage. That way, you can ensure you purchase a generator that can power your necessary appliances or medical equipment during an electrical emergency.

Whole-house generators need to be installed on level ground several feet away from walls and other objects. Because they tap into the electrical system directly, they usually need to be close to your home electrical panel for a transfer switch installation. It also helps with installation if they are near to a gas line or propane tank installation.

Potential benefits of using a natural gas generator include reducing your carbon footprint, lower likelihood of carbon monoxide exposure, budget-friendly operating costs, and low-maintenance, continuous fuel supply. Some possible drawbacks, though, include higher initial installation costs, dependency on a natural gas supply, and installation complexity. Keep in mind that pros and cons will vary based on the type and brand of natural gas generator.
