"SUMMARY: HIGH QUALITY WORK WITH LARGE PRICETAG. Corley plumber arrived on time. Their plumber was polite and offered several options for the repair. The repair was completed correctly and in a timely manner. Work area was cleaned after plumbing work was completed. No problems with the repair since it was completed which was several years ago. In short, I would give them FIVE STARS FOR THE QUALITY OF THEIR WORK. I would hire them again in an EMERGENCY (which is why I hired them for this work; the usual plumbers I use were unavailable), but NOT for non-emergency work. My reason for not wanting to use them for routine work is that their prices were OUTRAGEOUS and I'm not a miser (this is why I removed one star in my rating). The few replacement parts needed would have been nominal cost at a plumbing supply store. That means their labor was $200+/hr for installing compression fit connections which is even easier and quicker than gluing PVC pipes together (no heavy lifting; nothing complicated; easy access to pipes). I've had other plumbing jobs that were too big for me to do. I've found competent plumbers that do a great job (quality like Corley's) for half the price if you are willing to wait a day or two. Lesson: Instant gratification has a high price tag. FYI: They will charge for the cost estimate if you don't have them do the repair."

"Had original part of our 1965 built house rewired and grounded and a new bath fan installed and vented. Jerry and Joey were personable, , knowledgeable, hardworking, and kept us informed on what they were doing. We regained the use of several electrical outlets and a non-working light switch and peace of mind in having electrical safe and grounded.. They had to navigate a very low crawl space to do some of the work. All for such a reasonable price that I wish we had done this years ago! Thank you HomeAdvisor for helping us find Peco!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

You can expect a diesel generator to last for up to 30,000 hours of use, which works out to 20 to 25 years with the proper maintenance, of course. That depends on how much you use it, so a diesel generator used for emergencies a couple of times a year will last a lot longer than a generator that takes over for a faulty electrical grid every month for a day or two. 

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.

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

Sizing a generator is a careful process that requires calculating the electrical load of your entire house. You have to take into account every device you want to use and their wattage requirements, plus the wattage needed to start them, and look for a generator that can safely run all that at around 80% capacity.

In more practical terms, a small home can run on a 10,000-watt generator (and if you only want to power a few key appliances, much less than that). A mid-sized home may need something between 15,000 and 22,000 watts. Larger homes require 25,000 watts or more. 

Here’s what you can run with different wattages and types of generators:

Portable generator:

  • 2,000 watts can handle a large appliance like a freezer or refrigerator, plus a few smaller items like phones or computer chargers. 

  • 4,000 watts will keep two large appliances operating and a few smaller devices.

  • 8,000 watts should power most essential appliances and other devices, including a sump pump, well pump, or your dishwasher.

Partial to whole-house generator:

  • 20,000 watts and above will make it seem like your home’s power is still on.
