"I had a technician come in to determine why my dining room light did not come on. The tech opened up my light switches and determined that the fixture had failed. Kind of surprising but not entirely unreasonable. He pointed out that one of the light switches should be replaced as it was cracked. I also asked him to replace a light switch in a different room. On his way out he hit his head on the light fixture he was reviewing and broke it (glass chandelier). As the fixture was broken and needed to be replaced, I didn't care much about the accident. Later that evening I went to turn on the switch he replaced and it was not functioning properly. I pulled the switch to take a look if something came loose and noticed that he failed to attach the ground wire. I attached the ground wire and the switch still is not working correctly. The switch that he mentioned was cracked was not working either, upon opening up the switch I saw that it was fully broken and not a crack. I suspect he damaged it while troubleshooting the original issue as it was working perfectly fine prior to him opening up the switch. So with all of this, I'm now wondering if he even troubleshot the issue properly and just blamed it on the fixture. Hard to say. That being said, I would probably not use their service again."

"Gosh, i just can't say enough good things. I needed to have some dedicated outlets installed in our garage and also to have our circuit box looked as since I was convinced they whole thing needed to be replaced due to the age of our house. I reached out to several different companies who were either months out, never responded or no-showed completely. Joseph called me back ASAP, admitted he was booked out but asked me to text him photos of the areas of concern. He quoted me based on the photos and then came out quickly since it was a job with a quick turnaround. He was super friendly, knowledgeable and funny. The work was done in short time and he even looked at a potential hazard and remedied that for me. Good professionals are hard to find and I am so glad to now add a fantastic electrician to our home improvement arsenal."

"I requested an HVAC service call quote from G&S Heating through Angi, and received a "deal" via Angi for $129. I chose them partly due to that price. G&S Heating ended up billing me $280, and said that was an old outdated deal and would not honor it. Irresponsible and incredibly poor customer relations. Also, the technician they sent did not seem very knowledgeable or experienced. He said the thermostat reading issue I was having would require another service call and the possible replacement of an expensive circuit board. I ended up fixing the problem myself. I will not be using G&S Heating again."

Installing a whole-house generator costs about $5,000 on average. Prices range from $1,550 to $8,500, depending on size, brand, fuel type, and assembly. The size of your whole-house generator is the most significant cost factor, with large homes with high energy demands costing the most to power. Types of whole-home generators include:
Portable generators with 1kW–7.5kW capacity: $500–$2,000
Partial generators with 9kW–20kW capacity: $2,000–$6,300
Whole-house generators with 22kW–48kW: $5,000–$18,000
When maintained properly, a whole-house generator can last up to 20 years. Costs to maintain and repair generators vary by location and type of generator, but you can expect to pay about $150 to $300 per year for annual generator maintenance checks. An experienced generator service technician will inspect your generator’s engine filter, starting mechanism, fuel, lubrication, and coolant levels to keep your generator in good working condition for as long as possible.
When choosing the right size generator for your needs, consider a few items to help calculate the wattage you’ll need. Start by determining which household items and appliances you want to power, and then add the wattages together. Check out the wattage of these essential appliances:
Refrigerator: 600 watts
Large dehumidifier: 700 watts
Large window air conditioner: 1,400 watts
Water heater: 3,000 watts
Running home appliances like these requires a partial or whole-house generator. A portable generator may be enough to power your home if you only plan to keep a refrigerator and freezer running.
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.
The value of installing a whole-house generator is that your home has guaranteed power, even if the power grid in your area is down. Whether a whole-house generator is worth installing in your home depends on how often you use it, your home’s location, and your lifestyle. For example, installing a whole-house generator is likely worth it if you:
Experience frequent or prolonged power outages
Work from home
Store a lot of cold food
Have a sump pump
Have a pump for well water
Use electronic medical devices
Live in a climate requiring heating or cooling
