"We needed new panels in garage and house and to get everything up to code and made safe. Every outlet was worked on and some light fixtures changed. Technician was here for 7 days and was the most pleasant person, a lot of work was done. He had someone helping him out. I always knew when they were on the way and I was always asked if I had questions. I can only say good things about the company and today the inspector came and everything passed."

"Houston & Barnes Home Solutions delivered an outstanding experience. Cody and Gabe were fantastic from the moment they arrived. They installed multiple ceiling fans, a Ring floodlight, and a Ring camera on the opposite side of the house — all completed with skill and care. What really stood out was how courteous, respectful, and easy to work with they were. They treated my home with care, listened closely to what I needed, and made sure everything was done exactly the way I wanted. Their knowledge showed in every step, and they kept a pleasant, positive attitude the entire time. They arrived promptly, and even when one item came up that wasn’t included in the original quote, they handled it smoothly and kept the pricing very fair. The quality of their work was excellent, and the value was even better. I’m extremely satisfied and would gladly recommend Houston & Barnes Home Solutions to anyone needing dependable home services."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Setting up utilities on a vacant property usually takes at least a few months, or between 6 weeks to 16 weeks. This process requires working with the local planning and zoning department, hiring a building contractor or engineer to design the utility layout, securing permits, laying the lines, and connecting the utilities.

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.

Costs depend on generator type, labor, and additional wiring or transfer switch requirements.

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.

Generator size requirements vary wildly among properties, but typical generator sizes are listed below based on home square footage:

  • 1,000 sq ft: 6–9 kW

  • 1,500 sq ft: 7–10 kW

  • 2,000 sq ft: 10–14kW

  • 2,500 sq ft: 12–16kW

  • 3,000 sq ft: 16–20kW+

Unfortunately, home square footage isn’t always a good indicator of generator size requirements. Instead, you should call in a professional to discuss which items in your home you’d like to run via your generator. They can calculate peak and average consumption for those items and then size your generator appropriately for optimal performance.
