"The guys that came were absolutely awesome! Mason came in and I explained what we needed done, he was exceptionally professional and very understanding. I showed him where we needed the fan installed and had only anticipated them to install the electric, we were going to install the fan later but the guys went the extra mile and not only just installed the fan but also installed the remote mechanism as well. The guys were extremely nice, I told them they didn’t have to do it that we could do it later and they said they were here and could do it quicker so they didn’t mind doing it at all. I even had another issue that had come up over the weekend in my kitchen, I asked if they could just scope it out and I could setup another appointment to fix it but Mason said no way, I will go ahead and fix that little issue right now. So not only did they install the electric, they put up my fan and installed the remote mechanism that I’d purchased separately, but they also fixed my issue in my kitchen! We cannot say enough positive things about the crew we had help us. I know I thanked them like 10 times but it still wasn’t enough, we are genuinely appreciative and impressed. We’ve already agreed if we have any other electric needs in our home we will call Mason at Cole Electric again! I’ve already recommended him to a few friends and family members!"

"I had 5 ceiling fans installed. His installation process was extremely quick and efficient. He also fixed an outlet issue that I had in my living room on the spot. Would definitely use him again for any other future electrical projects."

"I am happy to recommend TriUs. The responded to my call quickly and professionally. A fire at a power substation knocked out our power and the resulting surge fried outlets in my family room. It could have caused a house fire! The outlets were replaced and a couple of other issues addressed. He was able to install a whole house surge protector so this should not happen again. On time, professional, reasonably priced, friendly; I am so pleased with today's service that I plan on scheduling them to install a whole house generator in the near future!"

"William Burden is the third generation owner of WBLightningRods and his company has been in business since 1950. He is very courteous, professional, was on time, and has a very good crew. William was present for the entire installation. We chose the copper system. We are glad for the peace of mind a lightning rod system will provide."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

If you’re wondering if you can use your electric vehicle as a backup battery, it depends on whether your EV is compatible with bidirectional charging. This technology allows energy to flow both ways, enabling vehicle-to-home (V2H) backup power, vehicle-to-load (V2L) for appliances and camping, and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) to support the power grid. Compatible EVs convert stored DC energy into usable AC power, helping reduce energy costs and enhance grid stability while providing emergency backup power.

Whole-house generators can run continuously for extended periods, even for weeks at a time (around 400 to 500 hours), as long as they have a sufficient fuel supply. However, this type of extensive use will increase wear and tear and can shorten the generator's overall lifespan. During long periods of operation, it's important to check and refill the engine oil as needed, potentially as frequently as daily depending on the model. If your generator uses a fuel tank, ensure it is kept full to prevent unexpected shutdowns.

Many services include assembling the unit and securing it in the window. Confirm with your provider.

Yes. You can connect your home back-up battery to a generator with its designated charger. Be sure that the output of the generator matches the input requirements for the battery for best results.
