"Paul was professional and very meticulous. Initially he came to my home to view the project and gave me a free estimate for the work to be done. I got on his schedule, and he was prompt in his arrival to include calling me once he was about 20 minutes from my house. Paul removed an old vanity light, skillfully patched up the hole and prepped the wall to install two new vanity lights in different locations. By doing this, he had to run two additional lines behind the drywall to provide power for the two vanity lights. The two vanity lights were precisely marked and placed evenly over each mirrow and sink. Paul also removed a wall outlet from the front wall, patched that hole and installed a new wall outlet on the side wall to make the vanity area look the same on both sides of each sink. The new side wall outlet required Paul to enter the crawl space to run a dedicated line up to it. Once all work was complete, everything thing was tested to ensure it was in excellent operating condition and safe. The area was cleaned including the counter space and the floor insuring nothing was left behind for a job well done. My next electrical job, I will definitely call Paul Higginbotham."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

As long as your generator is used as recommended by the manufacturer, it’s safe to use for auxiliary power. Make sure that fuel powered generators are used outdoors and that the fumes dissipate away from your home. A professional generator installer will ensure your generator’s placement and set-up meets safety standards when installing or repairing your back-up power source.

As a safety measure, you should always turn off the main breaker while operating your generator’s backup breaker. In addition, you should also switch off all appliance breakers so you don't have a power surge when the main breaker turns back on. And finally, turning off the main breaker prevents back-feeding, which endangers utility workers with the risk of electrocution. Back-feeding could also destroy the electrical circuits of your neighbors if they use the same power network.

In most cases, there are no tax credits available for home generators. However, that’s a general statement that applies to federal tax credits, so you might have access to state or local tax incentives. You can check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables & Efficiency (DSIRE) for more information about your area. If you hire a reliable home generator installer, they should also know if there are any state or local perks you can use to reduce your installation costs, including tax breaks and rebates.

These advanced generators use a key fob or a smartphone app to remotely start, which is ideal for getting power back on immediately without venturing outside. This feature is more common on whole home generators, but you may be able to find it on large portable generators, too.

When maintained properly, a whole-house generator can last up to 20 years. Costs to maintain and repair generators vary by location and type of generator, but you can expect to pay about $150 to $300 per year for annual generator maintenance checks. An experienced generator service technician will inspect your generator’s engine filter, starting mechanism, fuel, lubrication, and coolant levels to keep your generator in good working condition for as long as possible.
