"William was great! I had him move and install a new chandelier in my entry and install a new ceiling fan in my living room. He did the work fast and it looks great! He was also fair with his pricing. I can't recommend him enough!"

"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."

Generator Install questions, 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.

Costs depend on generator type, labor, and additional wiring or transfer switch requirements.

If your home already has a grinder pump and you’re still noticing issues (like frequently clogged toilets and sinks), it could be time to upgrade your grinder pump. Start by checking your existing horsepower. If there are four or fewer people living in your home, using a 1/2-horsepower grinder pump should be sufficient. Larger households should consider investing in a 1-horsepower grinder pump to maximize wastewater removal efforts.

You can expect a diesel generator to last for up to 30,000 hours of use, which works out to 20 to 25 years with the proper maintenance, of course. That depends on how much you use it, so a diesel generator used for emergencies a couple of times a year will last a lot longer than a generator that takes over for a faulty electrical grid every month for a day or two. 

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.
