We provide a full range of generator services to ensure your home remains powered and safe during any electrical outage.
Our team performs detailed calculations to determine exactly how much power your home requires during an outage. Selecting the correct size ensures your system can handle your essential appliances without overloading.
These powerful systems provide seamless coverage for your entire house during extended outages. We manage the complete installation process to give you total peace of mind, regardless of the weather.

Our crew installs interlock kits that provide a safe and code-compliant way to connect a portable generator to your electrical panel. These devices prevent dangerous situations by ensuring the main breaker is off before the generator breaker is turned on.
We handle all necessary electrical connections to ensure your generator communicates effectively with your home's power system. Installing a transfer switch allows you to safely switch between grid power and generator power without risking backfeeding.
Our team works with gas and propane providers, if needed, to ensure your generator has a steady fuel supply. Coordinating these lines properly guarantees that your unit runs efficiently without interruption.

Regular checkups keep your equipment in prime condition and ready for the next storm. We perform routine testing to catch potential issues before they become major problems.

Our team responds quickly when your power system fails unexpectedly outside of normal business hours. You can rely on us to get your whole-home generator back up and running when you need it most.
Adding electricity to a separate garage, barn, or workshop requires more than running a line from the house. Through our detached electrical services, we install underground conduit, dedicated feeders, and subpanels built for capacity and long-term use.
Home charging should be simple, safe, and efficient, which is why we install electric vehicle (EV) chargers designed for your vehicle and your electrical system. We evaluate panel capacity, run dedicated circuits, and install hardwired or plug-in units with proper permitting and setup.
When outdated wiring begins to limit performance, whole-home rewires restore safety and reliability. We replace aging conductors, update panels, improve grounding, and install new outlets and switches that meet modern standards.
Brighter, more efficient spaces start with professional lighting upgrades tailored to your layout. We install recessed fixtures, chandeliers, pendants, vanity lights, exterior coach lights, floodlights, LED upgrades, and landscape lighting to enhance function and appearance.
Planning a new build calls for a solid electrical foundation from the ground up. With our new residential construction electrical services, we handle rough-in wiring, panel installation, outlet placement, and lighting layouts for homes, barns, and custom structures.
An outdated electrical panel can limit capacity and increase risk, making timely electrical panel services essential. We perform panel upgrades and full replacements and install whole-home surge protection to safeguard sensitive electronics.
Renovating your home often requires updating what sits behind the walls, and our electrical remodels align your wiring with your new design. We relocate outlets and switches, add circuits for major appliances, install ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) and arc fault circuit interrupter (AFCI) protection, and perform inspections to confirm compliance.

A generator installation typically takes one to two days, depending on the system size and site conditions. A licensed electrician will complete load calculations, install the transfer switch, connect fuel sources, and schedule inspections to ensure the generator operates safely.
Most generator services require permits and inspections to meet local building and electrical codes. A licensed electrician handles permitting and ensures the home generator or standby generator passes final inspection.
You should base your generator selection on total electrical load, essential appliances, and HVAC requirements. Having an electrical contractor perform load calculations to determine whether a portable, standby, or whole-house generator is also helpful.
Most manufacturers recommend annual maintenance and routine testing to keep generators ready for outages. Regular generator services include inspecting connections, checking fuel systems, and confirming proper operation.
Standby generators automatically power a home during an outage and support more circuits. Portable generators require manual setup and typically power fewer appliances, making standby systems a stronger long-term backup solution.
