"Kent is an excellent person and I would call him and his co-worker for any electrical work. He installed a standby power generator for me and did an outstanding job. During this COVID-19 period he and his employee wore gloves, masks, and booties when required to be inside our home. Can't say enough good about this company!"

"Jason and his helper established power to a garage and installed outlets and lights that I supplied. The work was of high quality and to applicable standards. He did not skimp on materials — they were from electrical supply house. I would have liked more communications, but he did what he said he would do."

"John was always professional and quick to respond and answer my questions. For personal reasons, before hiring Barclay Construction, I had to wait a long time to be able to replace my old siding. John and his crew made it worth the wait. All were pleasant and made me feel they were anxious to please me and take pride in their work. In addition to the siding replacement, they painted the trim and doors and installed my window boxes. I am so happy and appreciative of the great work that they did. I can give them my wholehearted recommendation."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

These advanced generators use a key fob or a smartphone app to remotely start, which is ideal for getting power back on immediately without venturing outside. This feature is more common on whole home generators, but you may be able to find it on large portable generators, too.

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.

Yes, natural gas generators can work without electricity. Natural gas generators are a common type of backup or whole-house generator that operates when the electrical grid isn’t working. The trick is using a transfer switch (which usually needs to be installed with the generator) that safely switches the home electrical system from the power grid to generator power when needed.

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.

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.
