"There were about 6 or 7 techs that worked two days to dig a trench, lay electric lines, set the generator, run cable and waited for an COA inspector to sign off on the job. Very courteous, professional, and knowledgeable individuals. Thanks for your great service and in-depth explanation of the project!"

"I recently had electrical work completed as part of a remodel, and overall I was pleased with the experience. The electrician was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain the work being done. The quality of the installation was solid, and everything was completed safely and up to code. As with any remodel, there were a few minor delays and adjustments along the way, but they communicated well and made sure any concerns were addressed. I appreciate the attention to detail and the pride they took in their work. I would recommend them to anyone looking for reliable electrical work on a remodel and would consider hiring them again for future projects."

Generator Install FAQs, answered by experts

Natural gas and electricity rates vary significantly based on location, and pricing can change over time, too. It’s possible that in locations where natural gas is particularly inexpensive, it will cost less than grid-based electricity will. However, you should also factor in the generator’s initial costs and maintenance needs, as well as its noise level and if it can comfortably power all your home appliances.

The average cost to install a home generator is $5,200, but total costs can range from $500 to $18,000 or more. The final price depends on several factors, including the generator's size, type, brand, fuel source, and the cost of labor and assembly. The generator's size is the most significant cost factor, as units that can power larger homes with higher energy demands cost more.

Cost breakdowns by generator type are typically as follows:

  • Portable or Emergency Backup Generators (1kW–7.5kW): $500–$2,000

  • Partial-Home Generators (9kW–20kW): $2,000–$6,500

  • Whole-House Generators (22kW–48kW): $5,000–$18,000

To ensure you get the right size unit for your needs without overpaying, consider hiring an electrician to calculate the electrical load of your essential appliances. It is also recommended to get at least three quotes from qualified installers to find the best fit for your budget.

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

In most municipalities, you will need a permit to install a permanent home generator, including emergency backup, partial-home, and whole-home generators. A permit for a generator usually costs between $50 and $250, depending on where you live. Your electrician or certified generator installer will usually pull the permit for you—and might be required to do so by your building department—but you’ll be on the hook for the cost of the permit. You should ask your installer before agreeing to any work if they will pull the necessary permits for your project.

To reduce AC startup power for a whole-house generator, install a soft start kit or hard start capacitor, which lowers the initial surge by gradually ramping up the compressor. Using a smart load manager can also help by staggering startup loads, preventing a system overload and future costly repairs.
