"Steve from Cody Malone was phenomenal. Not only did he expertly install new lighting (heavy stuff, too!) but offer clever suggestions on how to add new wiring to install a new light over our kitchen stove, install new wiring and new light over our fireplace, add new wiring for a new outdoor light on our deck, and install new outdoor landscape lighting. Oh, he also repair/replaced our fluorescent lights in our basement that were intermittently going on and offer. I would hire Steve in a heartbeat for any electrical job. He really knows his stuff and his pricing was fair if not the best for the fantastic job that he did."

"Patrick, who supervised the installation of a generator which I had, also worked up the initial recommendations and estimate. This generator was used, but that did not deter Patrick from coming up with a plan. Other contractors sent estimators who were more sales people than experienced generator contractors. Only Ritzau made the recommendation to replace the old fashioned transfer switch which came with the unit with an up to date digital transfer switch. This

"Phenomenal job by Evergreen.  Analyzed the current box and gave me options, best, most cost effective was upgrading the 40 yr old CB panel and adding a generator interlock.  Work was done perfectly and efficiently...now when the neighborhood goes dark (all too often when the weather is bad in Northern VA), we have power and AC.  Thanks Evergreen."

"Price was quite competitive. Stephen Palmer, the owner, who came out to review the work and give us a proposal, was the only contractor who actually opened up the existing box to see what was there. He spotted the fact that there were two separate circuits on one breaker and split them in the replacement box by adding a breaker. The actual work went very well. The electrician who did the work was a very efficient, hard worker. He completed essentially all the work in one day, and only had to come back to install an extra circuit that we had requested. The work passed Montgomery County inspection with no problems. I highly recommend this contractor."

"The entire process, from the first initial phone call to the final inspection went GREAT.  I am more than pleased with the work of All American Electric.  I found them to be informative, helpful, cost saving, and professional with great attention to detail.  My installer, Patrick, walked me through the process of installation, as well as calls from the business owner Boz.  Patrick told me where they were going to install, what was being done, how long it would be done, what the inspector looks for, etc.  All American Electric also provided the permits and scheduled the County inspections.  I am grateful and feel good my house is protected.  A generator is a BIG investment.  It's nice to know I was taken care of.

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

DIY is possible for basic setups. Professional installation ensures safe and proper electrical connections.

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.

Most homeowners won't be able to claim a home generator as a tax write-off. However, a whole-house generator may be tax-deductible in certain situations depending on its purpose. For instance, if it's needed to power essential medical equipment, it may qualify as a medical expense deduction. Also, in some cases, businesses can deduct a generator as a business expense if it supports operations. Always consult a tax professional to determine eligibility based on your specific circumstances and the applicable IRS regulations.

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.

A home that is 2,500 square feet will likely need a 20kW to 25kW generator. Consult your local generator installer to confirm the generator size needed to power your home before purchasing a new one. Be sure to consider how much power your necessary devices need to run.
