"I cannot say enough great things about Jamie and the team at Wisconsin Generators LLC. From the very first conversation, Jamie was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly responsive. He took the time to walk me through all my options, answered every question thoroughly, and made sure I felt confident in the decision we were making. The installation process was seamless. The crew showed up on time, worked efficiently, and treated our property with respect. Their attention to detail and commitment to doing the job right was obvious from start to finish. Everything was clean, organized, and completed exactly as promised. What really sets Jamie apart is his integrity and customer-first approach. There was no pressure just honest recommendations and clear communication. If you’re considering a standby generator, I highly recommend Jamie and Wisconsin Generators LLC. Reliable service, expert installation, and true peace of mind. Five stars all The way!!"

"I would hire Jim and his team at JLK Contractor Services again any time, they were quick to respond, and came prepared for the project and did excellent work. We had 5 overhead light fixtures wired and installed in three rooms and a closet, a bath fan installed, new outlets installed and conduit run for the garage, and office Ethernet installed. I had shopped around and had an idea of the cost and Jim s team came in under my initially planned budget. Great work JLK, many thanks!"

"Jim was very fast at coming to evaluate what we all needed to have done. He did a great job and cleaned up after he was finished. While he was here we had an issue come up for another electrical problem and he ordered the part and came back as soon as he got the part. Will definitely hire him again when we need electrical work."

"All of their technicians were very professional and polite and helped me understand what was going on every step of the way, from the initial inspection, diagnosing the issue, deciding on a new furnace, and through the installation process. When the inspection showed that my furnace was no longer working, they even shuffled some appointments around to make sure I had working heat before it started getting too cold outside. Not only did they do a great job installing the new furnace and AC, they went out of their way to clean up the basement and duct work a bit and left things looking even better than when they got there! Mike was my technician for the initial inspection and Austin worked on the Furnace and AC install. There were a couple other techs with them as well who's names I didn't quite catch, but all of them were great!"

Generator Install FAQs, answered by experts

While diesel is relatively stable, it won’t last nearly as long as propane and you may have to replace it if it sits unused for too long. Diesel can sometimes struggle to work efficiently or start engines during especially cold weather, so it’s not the best choice for every climate. Compared to fuels like propane and natural gas, diesel generators tend to be noisier and create more exhaust, which isn’t always ideal for home use.

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.

In many cases, yes. There are models called dual-fuel generators and fuel switches, but only between certain types of fuel. For example, with the right setup you can convert a generator from natural gas to propane. Some allow switching between diesel and gasoline. There are even tri-fuel generators available in some cases, which adds a large layer of security if you are worried about fuel availability in times of crisis. Always check your generator capabilities and manual instructions before trying to switch fuels. Some generators can use another fuel but may need a fuel conversion kit to prep them first.

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.

The average cost to install a home generator is $5,200, but total costs can range from $500 to $18,000 or more. The final price depends on several factors, including the generator's size, type, brand, fuel source, and the cost of labor and assembly. The generator's size is the most significant cost factor, as units that can power larger homes with higher energy demands cost more.

Cost breakdowns by generator type are typically as follows:

  • Portable or Emergency Backup Generators (1kW–7.5kW): $500–$2,000

  • Partial-Home Generators (9kW–20kW): $2,000–$6,500

  • Whole-House Generators (22kW–48kW): $5,000–$18,000

To ensure you get the right size unit for your needs without overpaying, consider hiring an electrician to calculate the electrical load of your essential appliances. It is also recommended to get at least three quotes from qualified installers to find the best fit for your budget.
