Do I need a permit to install a generator?
Yes, most residential generator installations require a permit. We’ll handle all the permitting and inspections for you.
How big of a generator does my home need?
That depends on your home size and what you want powered during an outage. We’ll help you calculate the proper load and recommend the right model.

Portable generators require manual setup and fueling, while standby generators are permanent, automatic, and more reliable for whole-home coverage.
How long does installation take?
Most installations are completed in a day or two, depending on the generator type and electrical setup.

I thought the price was a little too steep, but it is what it is. Excellent work.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was originally wanting a new dedicated circuit installed. When they arrived they looked over the location and let me know of an alternate way to get the same results I wanted and at a lower cost than originally estimated. Work was done very quickly and very honestly by telling me other ways to meet my electrical needs without trying to upsell me on unnecessary upgrades. Great work, would recommend

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jay came out and not only helped us by installing an outlet in our crawlspace but also went out of his way to identify a leak we had that had nothing to do with electrical work, which our home inspector had missed. We appreciate their quality of work and expertise to go above and beyond in identifying areas of concern outside of their scope and fitting us in their schedule as promptly as they could!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very professional and friendly! When we asked to add things to the bid partway through, they were very accommodating. I never felt talked down to or like I was an inconvenience for asking something dumb. Very happy with the work they did!
