"This Pro came over immediately to my Condo to look at my Kitchen light fixture electrical problem, analyzing it quickly to tell me what the problem was & how I could remedy it. I need to buy a new light fixture now due to a light socket problem!"

Portable Generator - Install

"We are new to the Milwaukee area and have remodeled several rooms in our house. The first couple of projects were a nightmare because of contractors that were slow and did not do quality work. When we hired Marty, we were hesitant because of our recent experiences. To our relief, Marty was everything we had been looking for. He was extremely responsive from the moment we contacted him and did everything he said he would in the exact time frame promised. After our inspection, our inspector said to me "Matt, I'm glad that your luck has changed after that last couple projects. Keep using this electrician, he's a professional." On top of being extremely satisfied with every aspect of Marty and how he conducts business, his pricing was about 40% less than his competitors. He's a young entrepreneur that understands the importance of keeping his word and showed me that he will do everything he can to continue his stellar reputation in Milwaukee and ensure the success of his business. I will continue to use Marty for any electrical needs I have in the future. The larger overpriced electrical companies in Milwaukee better watch out, Marty is a formidable competitor that will understandably take a lot of their business and bring the much needed "value" that milwaukeans with electrical needs have been waiting for."

"They did a great job. Very efficient and had great communication. When something came up we were made aware of it and it was also taken care in a timely fashion. Dorow's team made sure that everything was completed and met the criteria. Once the work was completed they made sure we had all documents needed for the inspector and once the inspector did the inspection and if anything needed to be added Dorow's crew made came out and added the necessary components. Overall very satisfied with a job well done!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

You can expect a diesel generator to last for up to 30,000 hours of use, which works out to 20 to 25 years with the proper maintenance, of course. That depends on how much you use it, so a diesel generator used for emergencies a couple of times a year will last a lot longer than a generator that takes over for a faulty electrical grid every month for a day or two. 

If you have a transfer switch properly installed, the generator and main electrical power cannot feed the system at the same time. However, you should still shut off the power at your main circuit breaker panel before activating the generator. If you do that, you’ll simply need to shut off the generator and reset your circuit breaker once the local power comes back on.

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.

Most homeowners won't be able to claim a home generator as a tax write-off. However, a whole-house generator may be tax-deductible in certain situations depending on its purpose. For instance, if it's needed to power essential medical equipment, it may qualify as a medical expense deduction. Also, in some cases, businesses can deduct a generator as a business expense if it supports operations. Always consult a tax professional to determine eligibility based on your specific circumstances and the applicable IRS regulations.

A portable generator can supply power to selected appliances and circuits in a home, but it's generally not designed to handle the entire household's electrical needs simultaneously. Portable generators have limited wattage capacity, so they are only designed to power essential devices and electronics temporarily until local power is restored. If your power needs outweigh the capabilities of a portable generator, consider installing a whole-home generator instead.
