Get matched with top generator installers in Rosenberg, TX

"This was a fairly large and expensive piece of necessary home maintenance. My home is now 25 years old, and I am the original owner. My main circuit breaker had been "acting up" recently; that is, it randomly failed (opened) as the day proceeded and the temperature rose. It is housed along with all of my other circuit breakers in my main breaker box, which is directly exposed to the early afternoon sun in the late spring and early fall months. Concerned, I did a bit of research online to discover my box likely had reached end-of-life. I called 2 contractors for estimates, and chose West Houston Electric to replace the box. In addition, my original ground rod was disconnected from my home's main grounding lead, which West Houston found when they inspected my box to give me a bid. I was told the original rod was likely galvanized metal provided by the builder, and that it had likely deteriorated significantly over the 25-year life of my house. They also suggested a "whole home" surge protector to minimize the effect of voltage surges that occur, the tech said, on a daily basis. These surges, it was claimed, have a deteriorating effect on any electric devices in my house, especially on "high tech" equipment that utilized chip technology. Both bidding contractors made this claim. I must say I haven't experienced any failures in chip-based technologies in my home. But, my AC compressor, when it comes on, comes on "hard." It must draw a lot of amperage when it cycles on, and it will do so often in the summer months. (I have a "start switch" on it to minimize the abruptness of its operation, but I often wonder what it draws as it is a very loud start.) I chose West Houston Electric to do the work because their competitor found almost $6,000 worth of work to do. To their credit, the tech broke that down to "must haves," "should haves," and "nice to haves." Even so, their bid for the "must haves," the work West Houston performed, was higher. The tech was on time for the scheduled work and seemed quite knowledgeable and likable. The owner had spoken to me on the phone, and came by twice during the work to check on progress. This is a relatively long procedure, by the way. It takes about 4-5 hours start to finish, and your power will be out most of that time. The tech found one more issue that seemed prudent to address regarding a GIF breaker for my pool pump, The competing contractor had suggested that as well. Though the risk is low that a pump failure might cause electricity to flow into my pool, it was the sort of risk that entailed mortality on the down side--that circuit is 220v. It the pump failed, and it caused current to flow into the pool, and anyone was in it, it would be "curtains." If this were to occur, I could not live with myself having chosen to take the risk instead of spending about $400. So, I conceded to add the additional protection. The work proceeded well. The tech and I struck up a good conversation about lawn maintenance, a favorite chore of mine (and his), and it finished up pretty much as we expected. West Houston did a fine job for me. I will use them again as there are always a few more things to be done in a house as old as mine. ("Old" is such an odd description of a house that is 25 years old; but that is Houston for you.)"

"Durell Jacob was awesome. He gave me a bid to do the work I requested and had everything done within 2 1/2 hours. He also noticed I did not have a surge protector on my main box, he got that installed in the same time. The work he did was just what I asked for. Additionally, he was respectful, kind and knowledgable."

"Robert was extremely professional and finished the job quickly. He exceeded my expectations!"

"I called Sugar Land Elect and asked if they installed Wi-Fi Thermostat, I was assured they did. When Tech E came out, He had no clue but worked on it anyway. He called a few times back to the office for assist. He finally got it to work or so I thought and charged me for the install and time for assist. I did speak w/owner which he reduced the rate since he knew of the situation bc Tech didn't know. Repair was during winter and had no cause to control units for cooling until now; Turned the air on manually, my upstairs thermostat went blank, when it finally came on, It blew hot air, ok NP, a/c issue, nope, thermostat kept running heat & wouldnot shut off; dnstairs blinked on/off would not come on manually or other wise. Called Sle for assist/warr anything and the lady on the phone refused to call a Tech nor owner and advised me to call someone else bc it wasn't their problem. Would not address my concerns about the repair...NOTHING!.she said we don't do Wi-Fi"

"Phenomenal customer service and pricing you can’t beat! From the get go of the initial set up service call to the completion of service and follow up call, it was a great experience. Will not hesitate to contact again for any plumbing issues!"

"Jose was very professional. I was provided a quote and the job was completed the same day. He cleaned up after himself very nice man. Will use the company again."

"SSGE acted like a teenager wrt aftersale service. The first time I called SSGE was when then was an alarm on the system, ( a year after install) and they refused service!!! The reason per SSGE was that there was dispute during install. During the sales process, SSGE had told me that HOA approval was NOT needed. Right after installation, the HOA wanted to remove the generator, and it took me 2 weeks to sort out the issue. I paid SSGE the second half of the payment in full only after the dispute with HOA was settled in about 2 weeks.Is that a good enogh reason to not provide service?? I had to call Generac's head-quarters and they helped me trouble shoot the alarm on my system."

"It was great"

"Rodney was professional, flexible, knowledgeable and cleaned up after the project. Highly recommend."
