"We had A1 upgrade our electric connection from 200 to 400amps. Installing new electric meter, working directly with centerpoint, and installing additional 200 amp generator box. Justin was very clear on the details If the install. Made sure installation was aesthetically pleasing. Checked on his team regularly. Followed up with minor corrections afterwards. Continuously communicated on status, etc. Definitely top notch service."

"Ronnie, Pam, Cindy and crew were wonderful to work with.  There are several steps to the process, given potential permits needed and coordination of service dates with Center Point Energy.  They kept me informed and walked me through the process at each step. 
I got bids from three companies.  Storm Guardian's bid was the lowest and included the most features.  It included Mobile Link, which the other two did not even mention.  Being able to remotely monitor the generator and receive alerts on my IPhone and on-line when the generator turns on/off is great.  Almost as important to me, they came through on their promise of near turn key.  The other bids had me doing a lot of the leg work with Center Point.  With Storm Guardian, I only had to make two phone calls and be home half a day to authorize Center Point's replacement of the gas meter. 
I am very pleased with Storm Guardian and can recommend them without reservation.  Great work, great people.

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

In Houston, be wary of generator installation projects quotes that skip required permits, overlook flood zone requirements, or fail to address your home’s electrical and gas systems. Watch for vague proposals, contractors who don’t mention HOA restrictions, or those who pressure you after storms. If a quote is unusually low or lacks a detailed, written contract, consider it a warning sign.

Helpful?

In Houston, generator installation projects typically take four to eight weeks from planning to completion. This timeline covers permitting, equipment delivery, and installation. Delays are common during hurricane season or after major storms due to increased demand. Additional time may be needed for electrical upgrades, HOA approvals, or engineering if your home is in a designated flood zone.

Helpful?

In Houston, homeowners often make mistakes during generator installation projects by skipping permits, ignoring HOA placement or noise rules, and failing to elevate units in flood-prone neighborhoods. Underestimating electrical loads, especially with heavy AC use, or neglecting proper drainage and ventilation are common missteps. Hiring unqualified contractors or rushing decisions after storms can also lead to long-term issues.

Helpful?

Generator installation projects in Houston need regular oil and filter changes, frequent air filter replacements due to local pollen, and battery checks since heat can shorten battery life. Schedule a full system test and fuel inspection before hurricane season. Protect your generator from humidity, pests, and fuel degradation, and ensure proper drainage. Annual professional inspections and biweekly test runs are also essential.

Helpful?

Your Houston home is well-suited for generator installation projects if it’s in a flood-prone area, experiences frequent outages, or supports medical equipment. Homes with ample outdoor space, reliable drainage, access to natural gas, and an electrical panel ready for upgrades are ideal. If you work remotely or plan to stay long-term, backup power can provide added security and comfort during severe weather.
