Small jobs welcome

Hello my name is Seth Savage and I owned a small business that I started to just give me and my family a little bit of financial freedom. At the same time I do what I do because I love it.\n\nI do not price gouge, when you get a price from m is the very bottom dollar and a great product in return for you as the customer to not be overwhelmed and for me and my family to make a little money.\n\nI am very passionate about my welding and wood working. I also build fences from barbed wire to chain link to wood privacy fences to pipe fence. I do add ons, remodels, bathroom renovations, and much more. Also your basic electric.

"Marty arrived on time as scheduled. A SPECIFIC TIME NOT A WINDOW OF MANY HOURS! When he saw the damaged outlet, he should me where the problem was and explained in layman's terms why the problem was intermittent. Instead of merely replacing the outlet plate with only 2 screws, he used longer screws to secure the outlet in place. During his service call, I mentioned another project I was involved in and he's expressed an interest to help with a community project. He's my 'go to guy' for electrical service"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

No, you should never plug a generator directly into a wall outlet in your house. This practice is extremely dangerous, often illegal, and can cause "back-feeding," where power from the generator flows back into utility lines, creating a life-threatening hazard for utility workers. It can also damage your home's electrical system, including appliances like pumps and HVAC fans. If the main power is restored while the generator is connected, it can destroy the generator and cause an electrical fire. To safely connect a generator, you must use a professionally installed transfer switch or an interlocking kit, which prevents back-feeding by disconnecting your home from the utility grid before the generator provides power.

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. 

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.

It might seem counterintuitive, but installing a generator transfer switch will save you money in the long run. While you’ll have to pay between $400 and $2,500 to have the transfer switch installed, you’ll recoup that amount later on when you don’t have to pay for expensive repairs to your appliances, devices, and electrical system that may have burned out, overloaded, or stopped working due to a sudden loss of power or an incorrect hook up of a generator to your home. 

Yes, in most municipalities, you will need a permit to install a permanent home generator, including emergency backup, partial-home, and whole-home models. Because these installations involve significant alterations to your home's electrical system and produce exhaust fumes, local governments often require a permit or inspection for safety purposes. A generator permit typically costs between $50 and $250, depending on your location. Your electrician or certified installer can usually handle the permitting process for you, but you will be responsible for the cost. It's a good practice to confirm with your installer that they will pull all necessary permits before work begins.
