"He showed up, evaluated and made recommendations for repairing instead of replacing the van, as well as remediating some exhaust issues that were not previously addressed. He replaced the motor on the fan and installed exhaust hose on the same visit. I found Jaren to be cordial, knowledgeable and honest. I will hire them again for other electrical issues in the future."

"They were great to work with, and were very concerned about the aesthetics of how it looked on the outside of the house when installing the hot tub wiring. I appreciate their eye for detail."

"Derek is by far the best electrician Iâ ve ever used!! Not only for quality, responsiveness, & professionalism but for the fact that they actually care. Iâ ve had DW Utah complete 4 jobs in the last two years (2 of them installing a charger for my Tesla) and every single job was exceptionally done. I would never go to anyone else for my electrical work. If youâ re done dealing with the big corporations, big corp pricing, and want someone who actually cares then you should let Derek and his team do the job. I promise you wonâ t be disappointed."

"Hired a professional to install 2 hand rails for my parents. One was installed on the front porch brick steps and one on the back porch brick steps. They arrived on time, installed both handrails quickly and safely. Handrails are sturdy, and now my parents lives are that much safer. Would recommend."

"Dan installed a new electrical panel, a new outdoor outlet for my rv, ran wire to the other side of the house and installed another upgraded outlet for my electric kiln. It was a messy job but at the end you couldnâ  t tell he had been there. He was reasonably priced and I intend to use him again."

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.

While natural gas generators are costly, they’re a great option for standby power due to the reliability of natural gas as a fuel source. Unlike other fuels, natural gas is delivered through underground pipes, making outages extremely rare and less likely to be affected by the elements. As long as the area isn’t prone to earthquakes, they offer an unlimited supply of natural gas that doesn’t degrade over time or require storage in tanks.

You can determine what size generator you need for a transfer switch by matching the switch to the largest outlet on your generator. Larger generators can power up to 10 circuits, while most 5,000-watt generators can provide power to six circuits. So, if your generator’s largest outlet is 30 amps, you’ll need a 30-amp transfer switch.

Setting up utilities on a vacant property usually takes at least a few months, or between 6 weeks to 16 weeks. This process requires working with the local planning and zoning department, hiring a building contractor or engineer to design the utility layout, securing permits, laying the lines, and connecting the utilities.

Here’s what you can run with different wattages and types of generators:

Portable generator:

  • 2,000 watts can handle a large appliance like a freezer or refrigerator, plus a few smaller items like phones or computer chargers. 

  • 4,000 watts will keep two large appliances operating and a few smaller devices.

  • 8,000 watts should power most essential appliances and other devices, including a sump pump, well pump, or your dishwasher.

Partial to whole-house generator:

  • 20,000 watts and above will make it seem like your home’s power is still on.
