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 Dana customers never see surprise charges.
“We needed outdoor lighting for the walkway and patio. The design they suggested looks amazing at night and runs on a timer.”
“Added a sub panel to the detached garage for my workshop. Welder, compressor and lights all run without issue now.”
“The electrician replaced our old smoke detectors with interconnected units and installed a video doorbell. Thorough and reasonably priced.”
It depends on what you want to run. A 14–22 kW air-cooled unit covers most Dana homes; larger homes or those running multiple HVAC systems may need a liquid-cooled unit. We perform a load calculation before recommending a size.
Yes. Generac is the most popular brand we install in Dana, NC, and we also install Kohler, Cummins and Briggs & Stratton systems.
A portable generator with a properly installed transfer switch and inlet is a safe, lower-cost option. Never backfeed a generator through a dryer outlet — it is dangerous to you and to utility workers.
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.
