"I engaged McBride to install two ceiling fans at my house. The installer, Justin, did an excellent job on both and I'm very pleased with Justin and the work he did for me. For my next electrical project I will be calling McBride."

"When I made the request on Angi's List, Gonelectrical called me within seconds. We talked about installing a whole-home surge protector. I traded some photos of my panels and received a quote over the phone. The job was scheduled for the next day. They showed up promptly and completed the work professionally. They explained what they did and showed me exactly what was done. I would recommend this company for similar work."

"I have zero complaints about this company. They came out very quickly to access my issue. It was urgent. From Oncor and this company, I clearly escaped what could have been a major fire. These guys were so professional and kept me in the loop of everything being done. I've saved their number for any future issues and I will definitely recommend them to anyone needing a skilled electrician. It was worth every penny to have it done professionally and safely. Thank you ALL."

"What i noticed first off was the peace of mind. Rightway Electric assured me they would take care of the problem and they did!! Expertise in their craft Hospitality, timely, detailed Customer satisfaction Awesome team work! I could go on. I am totally satisfied with this company. They saw me thru several days without electricity. It was disconnected on a Monday @7:30a and re- connected Thursday between 7-9a. During this time Right way Electric, furnished generators, and left a team member to be here when the electric company showed up. A phenominal, young man, expert in his knowledge. Courteous and respectful young man. If I could give more stars, i would."

"Copeland provided quick and professional service. I spoke with Autumn on the phone, who was incredibly kind. She helped me get an appointment for the very next day to install my Tesla charger. The electrician was punctual and courteous; he completed the work quickly and I have had no issues. I would choose Copeland again"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

The cost to install a whole-house generator averages $5,200, with a typical price range of $1,500 to $8,900. However, total costs can vary from $400 for a small portable unit to over $18,000 for a large-capacity system. The most significant cost factor is the generator's size and capacity, but other variables include the brand, fuel type, and labor for assembly and installation.

Generator costs can be broken down by type:

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

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

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

To avoid paying for more power than you need, consider hiring an electrician to calculate the electrical load for your essential appliances. It is also recommended to get at least three quotes to find the best deal for your specific needs and budget.

These advanced generators use a key fob or a smartphone app to remotely start, which is ideal for getting power back on immediately without venturing outside. This feature is more common on whole home generators, but you may be able to find it on large portable generators, too.

If you have a transfer switch properly installed, the generator and main electrical power cannot feed the system at the same time. However, you should still shut off the power at your main circuit breaker panel before activating the generator. If you do that, you’ll simply need to shut off the generator and reset your circuit breaker once the local power comes back on.

To power a central air system during a power outage, the whole-house generator will need to be at least 5,000 watts, and this number will significantly increase for larger units. Check the specific wattage requirements of your AC unit to choose the right generator size. Consider consulting a generator installer to ensure your whole-house generator meets your electrical load needs.

As a safety measure, you should always turn off the main breaker while operating your generator’s backup breaker. In addition, you should also switch off all appliance breakers so you don't have a power surge when the main breaker turns back on. And finally, turning off the main breaker prevents back-feeding, which endangers utility workers with the risk of electrocution. Back-feeding could also destroy the electrical circuits of your neighbors if they use the same power network.
