"DES installed 2 new electrical outlets, 2 new electrical panels, 3 wall heaters with dedicated circuits, and other miscellaneous electrical work. They explained options and what they would need to do to get the job done correctly. They arrived at the scheduled times, worked around our dog, explained the work they were doing, were friendly and easy to work with, and explained color and size options. When a light malfunctioned, they quickly scheduled an appointment for the waranty work which I am very satisfied with. I would hire them again."

"Three electricians worked on the job & completed it in 3 1/2 hours! I was expecting it to be done in 5-6 hours. They even hooked their generator up to my big freezer! The City inspector just checked their work, said it was a job well done! I would definitely hire them again."

"Outstanding service from start to finish! I couldn’t be happier with the job this company did installing our TV mount above the fireplace. From the moment they arrived, everything was handled with professionalism, precision, and care. The installation was fast, incredibly clean, and extremely efficient, no mess left behind and every detail thoughtfully executed. They clearly know what they’re doing and took the time to make sure the TV was perfectly centered, secure, and positioned for the best viewing experience. The final result looks sleek, polished, and exactly what I had envisioned. If you’re looking for a team that delivers top-tier workmanship, respects your home, and exceeds expectations, look no further. Highly recommend and would absolutely use them 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.

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.

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

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.

Yes, installing a generator usually increases your property value because buyers are getting the added peace of mind knowing they’ll be able to maintain power through blackouts. In most cases, you should see close to a 100% return on investment (ROI). Keep in mind that home generators usually need a permanent foundation, and installing a concrete slab will likely raise your property taxes slightly.
