"We discovered several terrible places in our drywall tape the day before our painter was scheduled to begin. Barclay responded quickly and had a third generation drywall guy in the job within 24 hours! We got professional results before the painter got to the area that needed painted. He also helped remove some tack strips and repaired the holes from that as well. I would highly recommend Barclay construction."

"I had used Worry Free Electric in the past and had very good service. I called James Costello again for some outlet relocations, new outlets, and new light fixtures installation/replacement. I was supplying these new light fixtures. I told James what I wanted to achieve, and where I wanted the new outlets and ceiling lighting fixtures located. He made some recommendations and suggestions, did exactly what I wanted and beyond with the addition of some three way switches for the lighting circuits. The whole experience was above my expectations. James Costello will be my first call for any future licensed Electrician project!"

"AJ took very good care of our project. Quick response and excellent timing for installation of new fan in a LR with no electrical fixture in the ceiling. Also replaced a tired bathroom exhaust fan. Really wish we would have done this project a long time ago, the living room ceiling fan is a game changer. Would recommend you check AJ out for your project."

"My service needs were fairly urgent. On the Double took my inquiry via Home Advisor and contacted me within the hour. Brian sent a technician to my house to diagnose my a/c problem in the evening when most companies in the area would not even take calls let alone make a service call. Another company informed me it would be a week before repairs could be done due to it being peak repair season. Within 36 hours, not only was my a/c issue diagnosed, but On the Double installed a new unit for $400 less than the next best competitor's quote. - Aaron G. in Clarksburg, WV"

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. 

With proper maintenance, a whole-house generator can last between 20 and 40 years. The specific lifespan depends on how often and for how long the generator is used, and some models may have their life expectancy rated in hours of operation. To maximize its lifespan, expect to spend around $150 to $300 per year for annual maintenance checks from a qualified technician. During these checks, a technician will inspect the engine filter, starting mechanism, fuel, lubrication, and coolant levels. Consulting your installer and choosing a low-impact fuel like natural gas or diesel can also help ensure your generator lasts as long as possible.

Costs range from $500 to $2,500, depending on generator type and installation complexity.

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.

To reduce AC startup power for a whole-house generator, install a soft start kit or hard start capacitor, which lowers the initial surge by gradually ramping up the compressor. Using a smart load manager can also help by staggering startup loads, preventing a system overload and future costly repairs.
