Est 1989 after hour emergency service available also Saturday and Sunday accept credit cards

"Awesome! The people were courteous, respectful, gave detailed information about what needed to be done and kept to the estimated cost. The initial response to my first contact came within 30 minutes. Mr. Hurley was on the property about thirty or thirty-five minutes later. He scheduled the work for the next morning, after giving me the estimate and waiting for my approval to go ahead. The damage had been caused by a tornado-we live in a double-wide. He looked into requirements for permits and inspections, which were waved due to the nature of our situation. He also contacted the power company to give them an estimate as to when he would be done; he contacted them again upon completion of the work, and, about four hours later we had power. The tornado hit on Monday, during my wife's 72nd birthday party. Other companies I contacted said they could not get to me until the middle of next week. I contacted Mr. Hurley Wednesday and Thursday afternoon the job was done and we had power. Mr, Hurley explained to me that when they heard about situations like ours, they worked the job in as soon as they possibly could as they considered our situation an emergency. We were exceptionally pleased with this company and its employees."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

It might seem counterintuitive, but installing a generator transfer switch will save you money in the long run. While you’ll have to pay between $400 and $2,500 to have the transfer switch installed, you’ll recoup that amount later on when you don’t have to pay for expensive repairs to your appliances, devices, and electrical system that may have burned out, overloaded, or stopped working due to a sudden loss of power or an incorrect hook up of a generator to your home. 

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.

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.

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.

You can determine what size generator you need by listing the various appliances it will power during an outage. Write down the start-up watt usage, and then add them all together. 

A 7,500-watt generator will run your refrigerator, freezer, well pump, and lighting circuits without a problem. However, you’ll need an extra 3,000 to 4,500 watts to run your water heater and another 5,000 to 25,000 watts to run your electric furnace. In these instances, a whole-home generator is your best bet for running your critical equipment.
