“The electrician replaced our old smoke detectors with interconnected units and installed a video doorbell. Thorough and reasonably priced.”
“Emergency call on a Sunday for a burning smell at the panel. They found a failing breaker and replaced it before it became a fire.”
“Our breaker panel was over 40 years old and the electrician walked me through every option before we chose a 200 amp upgrade. Clean install, passed inspection the first time.”

Installed cost varies with generator size, distance from the panel and fuel source. We provide a complete quote covering the electrical installation, transfer switch and permits. Call (888) 592-6466.
