"This is the third time we've had him for various electrical jobs and all have been exceptional experiences.  He is prompt, efficient and thorough in his work.  I called him on Sunday and he was able to fit this small job in the next day so we could do laundry again.

"There is no air conditioning on the first floor of the non-profit house for which I am Property Director.  With the donation of and installation of a window AC unit, it was suggested that a ceiling fan in the living room (where the AC unit was installed) would help circulate the cool air.  I had worked w/Horizon Electric previously for electrical repairs, but not for an installation requiring new wiring, etc.  The owner, Lee, met me at the house within a few days and almost immediately found a way to wire in a new ceiling fan in the living room.  With further discussion we decided a ceiling fan w/lights would also be worthwhile in the dining area.  In that case he had to extend wiring to this adjacent room and, again, came up with a solution.   He quoted me a price for the installation of the living room fan only and another for the installation of both fans.  
With Board of Directors approval I was able to get back to him within the week and the following week both fans were installed. Even though Lee had told me that his workload was out 2-3 weeks, he understood the importance of getting these fans installed 
and that was done in record time.  The House Manager reported to me that the workman finished the installation of the fans we provided in one day, as promised, and, even with the house residents present (including young children), left nothing lying about that could be hazardous to anyone, was efficient and cleaned up the work area thoroughly after he was done.
We were billed the amount quoted.
I would definitely use this company again and highly recommend it.

"Excellent work! Project involved running 100A service from house to detached garage, running power to equipment, and installing outlets. Happy with the price and was impressed with the work, so I decided to expand the scope - am having him come back to put in some more circuits. I have hired a number of contractors over the years, including at work for some involved projects. Marty is up there with the best: great communication, personable, completed the work sooner than I expected, and his experience shows - around 15 years, including industrial and commercial experience. He recently started his own business."

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. 

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.

If you’re wondering whether gas generators produce carbon monoxide, know that natural gas generators do not produce carbon monoxide if they are functioning properly, as natural gas burns cleanly. However, if the generator malfunctions and the gas does not burn completely, there is potential for carbon dioxide to be produced. To prevent malfunctions, it's crucial to perform regular maintenance, including running the generator weekly and scheduling professional inspections every 6 to 12 months. Also, be sure to test your carbon monoxide detectors regularly to ensure they function in the rare case of the generator producing carbon monoxide.

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.

You may need a permit for a portable generator if you’ll be installing a transfer switch for your primary residence or similar work. Otherwise, a permit for other uses may not be necessary. Check your local building codes or ask a local generator installer for more information about your local regulations.
