"Pete took all the worry off my shoulders. He had me contact my utility provider to rule out any issue with them. The same afternoon, he diagnosed the problem within minutes of arrival. The next morning, he arrived early, and had everything he needed to repair the major issue with my breaker box. Pete also had the utility company and town electrical inspector scheduled to complete the job. Respectful, professional, efficient and personable. Highly recommend!"

"Didn't show several times to a rewire job that he already had a hefty deposit on. I HAD TO SUE HIM TO TRY AND GET MY MONEY BACK. He showed up at court and tried to tell me he would pay me if I would just skip the hearing. I said I wasn't going to do that but would allow the commissioner to leave it open in case he didn't pay me as he claimed he would. The commissioner agreed to leave it open. Amos, wrote me a check...and then an hour later stopped payment! Yep, that's right. That's why I asked the commissioner to leave it open. At this point I knew he is so sketchy I had a feeling he would do something like this. So not only, do I have to try and get my deposit back but he pushed me back months on my house! Also, he is leaving to live in Spain and isn't planning on coming back. You won't see any deposit you put down with him but he will try to buy a lot of time by rescheduling, etc...His house has been for sale and he even did several recent price reductions to try and get it sold quicker! When we showed up for the 2nd hearing he tried lying but luckily I had things in writing that acknowledge he knows he owes me the money."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

The cost to install a whole-house generator averages at $5,200, but costs can range from $1,500 to $8,900, depending on the type and size of the generator, and the labor required to install it. To find the best deal while still ensuring the unit meets all the needs of your household, hire an electrician to calculate the electrical load of your must-have appliances and electronics beforehand so you don’t pay for more power than you need. As always, be sure to get at least three quotes to find the ideal fit for your needs and budget.

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.

No, you shouldn’t use an extension cord to plug a generator directly into your home without using a transfer switch. That’s because systems like pumps and HVAC fans need a steady power source that might not be available directly from your generator alone. If you bypass the circuit breaker box, you risk damaging your electrical system, creating a risk of electrical fire or electrical shock to you or any workers repairing lines on your local electrical grid.

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.

Yes, in some locations, it is required by the National Electric Code (NEC) to have a transfer switch installed for electrical emergencies. In addition to following electrical code, generator transfer switches ensure your home is fully protected during a power outage. By switching the power from the main breaker to the generator breaker, you can seamlessly operate your HVAC, lights, appliances, devices, and more during an emergency.
