Electric Today is a full service residential electrical company with 24 hour emergency service. We accept cash, check and all major credit cards. We offer same day service so you get the service you need, when you need it.

"One of our ceiling fans started turning its lights on and off, at full brightness and at dimmest setting, and blinking them by itself. Kyle, our technician, came the day after we called. He was on time, personable, and fixed the problem by removing the receiver for our universal remote control and allowing two switches to control the lights and rotating fan. He said that even slight power surges into a home could damage the circuit board in the receiver, and recommended that, if we wanted a remote, we get a fan that had one built in. He suggested that we do that and remove the old fan and receiver, which would save us the $99 fee for removing the receiver from the old fan until we could get a new one, but we opted to go ahead and have the receiver removed now. We appreciated him trying to save us that money. He had a vacuum cleaner which he used to clean up debris that had dropped during the removal process, and took the receiver and wires to be disposed of. The total cost of his visit was the $99."

"In December, 2021, I had a number of lights which started to go off and on randomly over a 24 hour period. Some switches were dimmers, and some lights were controlled by one, two, or three switches. It was almost as if a ghost were having fun. Explaining this and trying to get someone to help wasnâ  t easy. I finally identified which switches belonged together (little yellow tags) and cross referenced them on a single sheet of paper. I called Allen Home Services and one of the electricians came out. Scott took over an hour to do a no charge assessment and estimate including taking almost all the malfunctioning switches apart to make sure he was able to order the correct replacements. Due to supply chain issues, the switches didnâ  t arrive till the latter part of Jan, 2022. Shortly thereafter Scott arrived with 17 new switches. The final set of three were replaced the last of February (Haden). Allen receptionists were always polite and followed up on requests. The electricians were professional in appearance, attitude and service. In addition, they were polite and arrived at the arranged times with all the necessary tools. Cleanup was well done. And they guarantee their work: After the switches were installed, one interfered with a non-new switch and the electrician came out to move it (no charge). Am I pleased with Allenâ  s work? Yes, happiness is NOT having lights go on at 3 AM"

Generator installations FAQs

Installing a whole-house generator costs about $5,000 on average. Prices range from $1,550 to $8,500, depending on size, brand, fuel type, and assembly. The size of your whole-house generator is the most significant cost factor, with large homes with high energy demands costing the most to power. Types of whole-home generators include:

  • Portable generators with 1kW–7.5kW capacity: $500–$2,000

  • Partial generators with 9kW–20kW capacity: $2,000–$6,300

  • Whole-house generators with 22kW–48kW: $5,000–$18,000

When maintained properly, a whole-house generator can last up to 20 years. Costs to maintain and repair generators vary by location and type of generator, but you can expect to pay about $150 to $300 per year for annual generator maintenance checks. An experienced generator service technician will inspect your generator’s engine filter, starting mechanism, fuel, lubrication, and coolant levels to keep your generator in good working condition for as long as possible.

When choosing the right size generator for your needs, consider a few items to help calculate the wattage you’ll need. Start by determining which household items and appliances you want to power, and then add the wattages together. Check out the wattage of these essential appliances:

  • Refrigerator: 600 watts

  • Large dehumidifier: 700 watts

  • Large window air conditioner: 1,400 watts

  • Water heater: 3,000 watts

Running home appliances like these requires a partial or whole-house generator. A portable generator may be enough to power your home if you only plan to keep a refrigerator and freezer running. 

Here’s what you can run with different wattages and types of generators:

Portable generator:

  • 2,000 watts can handle a large appliance like a freezer or refrigerator, plus a few smaller items like phones or computer chargers. 

  • 4,000 watts will keep two large appliances operating and a few smaller devices.

  • 8,000 watts should power most essential appliances and other devices, including a sump pump, well pump, or your dishwasher.

Partial to whole-house generator:

  • 20,000 watts and above will make it seem like your home’s power is still on.

The value of installing a whole-house generator is that your home has guaranteed power, even if the power grid in your area is down. Whether a whole-house generator is worth installing in your home depends on how often you use it, your home’s location, and your lifestyle. For example, installing a whole-house generator is likely worth it if you:

  • Experience frequent or prolonged power outages

  • Work from home

  • Store a lot of cold food

  • Have a sump pump

  • Have a pump for well water

  • Use electronic medical devices

  • Live in a climate requiring heating or cooling
