We serve every neighborhood in Waynesville, including Downtown Waynesville, Hazelwood and Lake Junaluska area, plus the surrounding communities.

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 Waynesville customers never see surprise charges.

Most standby generator electrical installations in Waynesville are completed in one to two days once the pad and fuel line are in place.
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.
It depends on what you want to run. A 14–22 kW air-cooled unit covers most Waynesville homes; larger homes or those running multiple HVAC systems may need a liquid-cooled unit. We perform a load calculation before recommending a size.
