Every project is different, but the main cost factors are the scope of work, materials and fixtures selected, the distance wire must run from the panel, accessibility (attic, crawlspace or finished walls) and whether a permit and inspection are required. We provide a firm written quote before work begins, so Cordova customers never see surprise charges.

“Three-phase power for new equipment in our shop. They coordinated with the utility and had us running on time.”
“Outdoor outlets and a dedicated line for the pool pump. Professional from the first phone call to the final walkthrough.”
It depends on what you want to run. A 14–22 kW air-cooled unit covers most Cordova homes; larger homes or those running multiple HVAC systems may need a liquid-cooled unit. We perform a load calculation before recommending a size.
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.
